Take a step back in time with Expedia.co.uk [http://www.expedia.co.uk/Flights ] 's guide to the cities that have withstood the test of time, destinations that were swinging for the Pan Am crew and are still chic today, whatever your budget.
Rio de Janeiro
With its Bossa Nova beats and world-famous carnival, Rio has always been a playground for the fabulous and young at heart:
1) Take the Buzios excursion - this former fishing village is now a charming town that's home to cobblestone streets, art galleries and restaurants. 2) Eat where the city's unofficial theme tune was penned, have a steak at the 'Garota de Ipanema' 3) Book a massage at the Copacabana Palace Hotel spa.
Monte Carlo
Playboys and the rich and famous have always flocked to this tiny town for its glitzy casinos and grand Riviera setting, but it still has a lot to offer for those on a more modest budget:
1) Hire a personalised chauffeur driven sightseeing tour. For reservations visit http://www.expedia.co.uk 2) Follow in the footsteps of James Bond himself, try your luck in the famous casino 3) To join the icons of the sports world, visit during the annual Monaco Grand Prix
Paris
Paris was as chic back in the sixties as it is today. A hub for the fashionable and discerning, the world's style capital still epitomises class today:
