Two Great Destinations for 2006

Tuesday December 20, 2005
Frommers announced their The Top 10 Up and Coming Destinations For 2006 and two of their recommendations are in South America:
"Belém, Brazil: Nestled on the banks of the world's longest river and largest rainforest, Belém, Brazil is tropical paradise with an eclectic combination of both modern sophistication and frontier. Belem's collection of excellent restaurants utilizes local ingredients such as tropical fruits and Amazon fish to create a cuisine that is unlike anywhere in Brazil. Belem provides new surprises for the eager explorer. It is also a great gateway to the Amazon."
Explore Belém, Gateway to the Amazon.

Isla de Margarita, Venezuela: "Known for its reputation as a island getaway, Margarita, Venezuela offers the same amenities as its Caribbean neighbors: all-inclusive resorts, excellent white sand beaches, watersports, natural parks, a golf course, but all at a fraction of the price. Vacationers are benefiting from the economy's steep decline, and often visitors can even find inexpensive scuba diving adventures.
Check out Isla de Margarita, Pearl of the Caribbean and choose from one of these Resorts, Hotels and Inns.
