The busy market is one of Banjul's primary attractions, a vibrant kaleidoscope of multi-colored peppers, all manner of foodstuffs (from rather standard fruit and vegetables to salted fish and even dried sea snails), fabrics, jewellery, and beauty products such as wonder-working shea butter.

The Cathedral of Santa María de la Encarnación is Grenada’s most famous cavernous Renaissance and Gothic cathedral. There is a small museum adjacent to the church.

Vallby Sörgården Cultural Reserve in Tidan is a unique living reminder of traditional 19th-century Swedish farming communities. This cultural reserve encompasses a well-preserved home, farm buildings, and a living agricultural landscape. Maintaining its 19th-century charm, the house, renovated in the 1910s, remains largely unchanged with original decor and equipment intact. During spring, summer and autumn you can join in on activities such as threshing and mowing the crops.

Downtown Beirut is best explored on a cycling tour during the day. The city centre showcases sleek glass towers, while just a block away, abandoned high-rises with bullet holes stand as urban fossils from a not-so-distant war. The area is a blend of modern and traditional architecture, complemented by dining options and important historical landmarks. Make sure you stop to take a photo at the popular 'I Love Beirut' sign, visit Martyrs’ Square, a moving memorial to the nationalists executed here in 1916 under Ottoman rule, and admire the impressive Mohammad Al-Amin Mosque.
