Paris, France
15.6 million visitors (2007)
Tuk Tuk Tip: Most people think the best view of Paris is from the
Eifel Tower. However, there is only one skyscraper that was ever
permitted to be built in Paris, the Montparnasse Tower, which blocks
part of the view of the city.  For 6 euro you can taken an elevator
to the observation deck at the Montparnasse Tower (taller than the
Eifel
Tower). It is the best unobstructed view of Paris since you are
standing on the only skyscraper.  Plus, you don't have to wait in
line at the Eifel tower or climb the stairs to get the great view.

London, United Kingdom

Tuk Tuk Tip: You can buy half price theatre tickets in Leicester
Square for same-day shows. Go to the booth called TKTS, which is run
by The Society of London Theatre. It is the only free standing booth
actually within the square. They have the best seats and are the most
trustworthy ticket vendor. Be sure to line up early.

Bangkok, Thailand
10.84 million visitors (2007)
Tuk Tuk Tip: Tuk Tuks are open-air motorized carts that are a common
means of transportation for tourists. They are great for the cultural
experience, but after you’ve had your fun with the tuk tuks, taxis
are the way to go. Taxis are cheaper, faster, and air-conditioned.
Taxis
are metered by law, so if a taxi doesn’t have a meter, don’t take it.

Singapore, Singapore
10.1 million visitors  (2008)
Tuk Tuk Tip:  The government is pretty strict with rules to keep
people in order (the result is a meticulous city that is clean and
safe). Do not cross the street against the light or you risk a fine
of $100. As far as rumors of being arrested for chewing gum goes, you
can chew it, but you can't distribute it to other people. In other
words,
don't be a gum dealer.

New York City, United States
9.5 million visitors  (2008)
Tuk Tuk Tip: At the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the admittance fee is
only suggested.  You can pay a penny and get in.
