These days, cruise ships have so many amenities that passengers can spend a week at sea and fail to take advantage of everything on board. Recently-launched Harmony of the Seas, the world's largest cruise ship, boasts the tallest slide at sea (middle), while another newcomer, Carnival Vista, has a cycle track suspended above the upper deck (bottom right). Those with a head for heights can walk on a glass platform 128ft above the water on two Princess Cruises' ships (left). Passengers and on board the newest Royal Caribbean ships can have a cocktail prepared by robotic bartenders (top right).
Palm fringed beaches and rugged mountains: Why Sri Lanka offers tourists the ultimate undiscovered island paradise
From the honking traffic in the chaotic cities, through the palm-fringed beaches, to the beautiful national parks crawling with animals, the diverse island of Sri Lanka is packed with breath-taking variety, discovers MailOnline Travel's Thomas Burrows. Starting in the sprawling capital of Colombo, he made his way to Kandy along the track built under British rule that chugged through the urban sprawl to the lush green hills (bottom left). He then travelled to Sigiriya, the russet rock that towers 600ft above the arid dry-zone plains before heading to the east, which is still finding its feet following the end of the Civil War in 2009. In Dambulla, famous for its cave temples he encountered cheeky monkeys (inset). His final stay was at the magnificent Gal Oya Lodge (bottom right), tucked away on the edge of the largely untrodden Gal Oya National Park (top left), filled with elephants.
The most congested islands on earth: They're only a few miles across but some are so built up you can't even see the sea when you're on them
With limited yet coveted space, islands are sometimes the most densely populated places on Earth with destinations such as Hong Kong and Manhattan proving to be startlingly congested. For example, Santa Cruz del Islote (top left) off Colombia has a population density equivalent of about 300,000 people per square mile - far more than bustling Manhattan (bottom left). Similarly, Migingo Island (inset) has a population density of 250,000 per square mile and its burgeoning population only started arriving in 2002. Venice (top right) is tiny but has a population of 270,000, while the old town of Lubeck (bottom right) in Germany has outgrown its island and sprawled into the surrounding areas.
Housed in a landmark tower with stunning views and even butler-drawn baths, you'll want for nothing at the Chicago hotel voted the best in the US by TripAdvisor
MailOnline Travel's Khaleda Rahman visited the Langham Chicago and discovered exactly why TripAdvisor's users rave about it. For starters, it's the only hotel in the world housed in a building designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, one of the pioneers of modern architecture and it has been delighting visitors since it opened in 2013. So does it live up to the hype?
First look inside Harmony of the Seas: Daily Mail Online sets sail on the world's biggest cruise ship
Three thousand lucky souls have boarded the world's biggest cruise ship on its pre-inaugural cruise - and MailOnline Travel is among them. Docked at Southampton this past week, the awe-inspiring Harmony of the Seas is sailing up the English Channel this weekend before returning to the UK on Sunday and allowing the privileged few a sneak peek of what lies ahead for holidaymakers.
Perfect job for the world's laziest mechanic: £25k-a-year role offered on planet's most remote inhabited island with just one road (which leads to a potato patch)
The garage in question is on the UK overseas territory of Tristan da Cunha (top right), a windswept seven mile-wide volcanic island marooned halfway between South Africa and South America (bottom right). The island, the remotest inhabited place on the planet, has just 265 residents and is only accessible via a ten day sail from the nearest alternative car mechanics in Cape Town. It only has one road - the 'M1' (inset) - which leads to a potato patch.
Giving mum the rhino-round! Adorable baby Ekozu filmed meeting other safari park animals for the first time... and he forms an unlikely friendship with a GIRAFFE
Baby Ekozu, a male southern white rhino calf, was born in March at West Midlands Safari Park - the first to be born there in over a decade. He has spent the past few weeks meeting new animals including a giraffe (top right), antelope, goats, Congo buffalo (bottom left and right) and ducks (top left).
You can now rent Hollywood actor Aaron Paul's home for $400 on Airbnb (thankfully it's nothing like his Breaking Bad drug den)
Holidaymakers can rent Aaron Paul's beautiful ranch which is located in Boise not far from the border of Oregon. It features a geothermal hot spring pool (bottom right) and stunning wood-panelled interiors. Situated on a gorgeous tree-lined street just minutes from downtown, fans from all over the world can sample the star's lifestyle for $395 (£271) per night.
Daring tourists film themselves scaling the world's tallest residential skyscraper and admiring the sunrise (but first they had to sneak past security)
Urban explorers Dan Andrews (inset) and Will Sanderson, from Holmfirth, West Yorkshire, sneaked past security and climbed 101 floors to reach the top of the unfinished Marina 101 skyscraper in Dubai. It took around 90 minutes to get to the top of the building, which will eventually house a hotel and luxury apartments. From a dizzying height, the adventurers watched the sun rise and took in breathtaking views of the Dubai skyline and Arabian Sea.
The lake in Death Valley: Astonishing pictures show man kayaking on pool in the desert which appears after rare rain
Death Valley in California might have a reputation for being one of the driest and hottest places on Earth but occasionally parts of it flood after rare storms and you can actually go kayaking there. Proving that it is possible, adventure hiker Steve Hall headed to the national park with his camera to capture the desert's breath-taking transformation. The 41-year-old took a yellow inflatable kayak on to a small lake that had formed temporarily and paddled his way along the surface.
Passenger plane tipped BACKWARDS after blundering baggage handlers unloaded the cargo from the front first
Passengers were still on board the Ukraine International Airlines plane from Kiev to Tel Aviv when the alarms began to sound and the nose lifted upwards. The Boeing 737-900 was reportedly unloaded from the front first therefore causing the fore-body of the aircraft to rise as passengers began to disembark.
Hundreds of Thomson passengers stranded in Mexico with 48-hour delays after TWO Boeing 787 Dreamliners are cancelled due to technical faults
Flights Tom39 and flight Tom49 out of Cancun Airport to London Gatwick were deemed unfit to fly by the airline, with some passengers expecting at least a 48-hour delay. Flight Tom39 was scheduled to depart at 4.15pm local time on Tuesday, but now has a scheduled take-off time of 4.15pm local time today. And flight Tom49 had the same time departure a day later, but problems with that aircraft means at least a 24-hour delay for those passengers.
Hamptons State Of Mind! Mansion where Jay Z and Beyonce holidayed is up for rent for $1million a month (so it's lucky it comes with a CASH MACHINE)
A New York Hamptons mansion where Beyonce and Jay Z holidayed in 2012 is available to rent for vacations. It features a bowling alley cinema, a 60ft pool with underwater sound system and a rock-climbing wall. The mansion - named 'Sandcastle' - doesn't come cheap though, costing $550,000 (£380,000) for two weeks or $1million (£684,000) for the entire month of July. Pictured clockwise from top left: The exterior of the property, the bowling alley, one of the bathrooms, the cinema and (inset) Beyonce and Jay Z.
They're not all lazy! Sloth becomes unlikely fitness inspiration after tourists spot the animal on the side of the road doing YOGA
Claudia Moser, from Australia, and Anthony Pace, from Britain, were backpacking in Costa Rica when they saw the sloth in a yoga pose by road, so Claudia grabbed a picture with the active animal. Claudia, from Bondi, in Sydney, said: 'We were on a shuttle bus taking us from Moin to Cahuita, the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica, when our driver suddenly stopped and pointed out the sloth on the road. I couldn't believe it when I spotted he was doing my favourite yoga pose. Sloths are supposed to be lazy.'
First look INSIDE Shanghai Disneyland as the gigantic theme park lets visitors in as part of a test run ahead of the opening (and there are already problems)
Anticipation is rife for the grand opening of Shanghai Disney, just weeks away in June - but a select lucky few have already had a sneak peek inside the spectacular park itself. Never-before-seen pictures show hoards of eager fans exploring the gigantic 963-acre amusement park, which cost $5.5billion (£3.8billion) to build, as part of its six-week-long trial period, which started on May 7. Parades (top left and bottom left), character appearances (top right) and rides (bottom right and inset) have been experienced by those given a special invite. The resort in China is expected to smash records when it opens to the masses, but a few kinks in the vast operation have already been identified.
Welcome to paradise: Croatian island is voted best beach in Europe (no prizes for guessing why)
Stiniva has been named the top sandy offering in Europe thanks to its crystal clear waters, white sands and a stunning clifftop backdrop. The beach is located just a two-hour ferry ride from Split. Accessible only by hiking on a steep and narrow path, or by taking a taxi boat from the nearby Rukavac cove, this exquisite patch of coastline is definitely worth the effort it takes to reach it.
Fit for a Frozen queen: The bizarre ice cave in China that NEVER MELTS (even when outside temperatures reach 17C)
If Frozen's Queen Elsa was looking for a place to stay in Asia, she would feel right at home in this spectacular cave. Made entirely of ice, the Luyashan Mountain Ningwu ice cave in China looks like a real-life replica of the interior of the mystical castle in Disney (inset) - and remarkably manages to stay frozen for the duration of the summer thanks to its unusual shape. The stunning natural spectacle is the largest ice cave to be discovered so far in China and is believed to date back three million years.
Jaw-dropping images show daredevil becoming the first free-climber to conquer the vertical 1,148ft 'Pillar of Wisdom' rock face
Spectacular images show free-climber Leo Houlding, from Cumbria, scaling the giant sandstone tower, Pillar of Wisdom, in Wadi Rum - also known as the Valley of the Moon. The breathtaking natural structure is notoriously challenging for even professional climbers and stands higher than the Eiffel Tower, which tops out at 1,148ft. Renowned as a 'free climber', Houlding's initial plan was to scale the Pillar of Wisdom's immense cliff face without ropes - but the crumbling sandstone rock meant it was simply too dangerous.
Is this most dangerous holiday snap ever? Tourist crouches down on the back of a wild CROCODILE to pose for the camera
Kristina Smith, 25, travelled to a sacred spot in the upper east region of Paga, Ghana, for the nerve-wracking croc photo-op. The young explorer from Ottawa, Canada, heard about the secretive location through locals while on holiday in the region. Upon arrival at Paga Crocodile Pond, Kristina witnessed the wild creatures feast on a chicken before she posed for a photo - assured by locals she was safe. Guides estimated the big beast to be almost six foot long.
The $1billion boat arrives in Britain: World's biggest cruise ship Harmony of the Seas rules the waves as it docks in Southampton ahead of maiden voyage
A small crowd welcomed the £800million Harmony of the Seas as it arrived at Southampton just after dawn today, but tens of thousands are expected to visit the coastal city this week get a look at it before its maiden voyage. The 18-deck ship has set new records for length (1,1188ft), gross tonnage (227,000), width (215.5ft), passenger capacity (5,479 at double occupancy or a maximum of 6,780) and staterooms (2,747), and boasts the 10-storey Ultimate Abyss, the tallest slide at sea, 23 swimming pools, 20 dining venues, robotic bartenders, a casino and theatres. Later this month she will relocate to Barcelona, her summer base, and sail the western Mediterranean.
Princess Diana listening to pilots in the sky, the UK's first papal visit and JFK's final trip to Britain: Gatwick reveals historic photos on 80th anniversary of first flight
Vintage snaps, released on the 80th anniversary of Gatwick's first flight, show Princess Diana in the control tower in 1988 (inset), JFK's arrival (top left) six months before he was assassinated in 1963, and Pope John Paul II kissing the ground (bottom left) after he landed in 1982. Huge crowds (bottom right) gathered to see Queen Elizabeth II open the new airport in 1958. Passengers who flew to Paris on the inaugural flight in 1936 (top right) paid four pounds and five shillings (approximately £160 today) for a plane ticket and first class train fare from London Victoria station.
From Cambodia's Angkor Wat to Machu Picchu: TripAdvisor's best-rated landmarks around the world revealed

Before she was famous: Rare black-and-white images show a 21-year-old Audrey Hepburn exploring London's parks
They were taken in the spring of 1950 by Picture Post magazine photographer Bert Hardy when she worked as a chorus girl for production Sauce Piquante in London's West End. Hardy shot them in London's Kew Gardens and Richmond Park for a feature called We Take A Girl To Look For Spring. The images reveal how, even at this early age, Hepburn had true star quality, with seductive looks and a magnetic, coquettish personality.
Ready for their close-ups: Couple who quit their jobs to travel the world find no end of candidates for the hilarious animal mugshot collection they're building along the way
Adventurous couple Chanel Cartell and Stevo Dirnberger from Johannesburg have encountered many cheeky and cute animals on their travels - many of whom are happy to strike a pose. Their comical collection of images includes a grinning alpaca in Salzburg, Austria (inset), a napping cat (bottom right), a sleepy goat in Bergen, Norway (top right), a wide-mouthed horse in Umbertide, Italy (bottom left) and a smiling cow (top left).
