I was super excited when Amit from Neomam Studios reached out to Domestic Geek Girl to share these awesomely geek-tastic images from Expedia Canada.
The 21st century is pretty tame compared to how life on Earth looked in times gone by. If the prospect of another summer vacation on the Costa del Sol gets you yawning, perhaps you’d prefer a trip through time to a more adventurous epoch?
Let’s take a look at what’s on offer to the time-travelling tourist with a limitless budget!
Jurassic Age
The biggest animals the world has ever known roamed the Earth 150 million years ago. From being trodden underfoot by a Brachiosaurus to being eaten alive by a vicious 40-foot long Allosaurus, danger is everywhere! You’ll want to keep your foot on the gas as you safari through the Jurassic Age.
Ice Age
The last ice age peaked 21,000 years ago giving every hill and mountain off-piste potential. The land roamed with giants, from the Saber Toothed Tiger to the Woolly Mammoth. So strap on your skis and set your goggles straight, you’re about to witness nature at one of its most extremes.
Neanderthals
The Cueva de El Castillo in Spain is home to the oldest known cave paintings in the world. But rather than marvel at today’s remains, why not travel back 41,000 years and take an art class with the Neanderthals? Paint (natural earth pigments) will be provided by your hosts.
Markets of Pompeii
Two thousand years ago, the ‘Macellum’ of Pompeii was a thriving marketplace. Foodies will love the authentic Roman Empire bustle as you haggle for figs and olives, and hang around for a sacrificial feast in the evening. But be sure to get out of there by 79AD – Mount Vesuvius is about to blow!
Old Wild West
Bannack, Montana at the peak of the gold rush: the quintessential wild west town, complete with saloons, blacksmiths and a corrupt sheriff. You can make it big if you stay lucky in 1860s Bannack – with all those gamblers and bandits, it makes an ideal setting for your Stag or Hen party.
Atlantis
Travelling back through time is easy. Finding your way to the lost city of Atlantis is a different case. If you can figure out where it is, you’ll know for sure when you visit the ivory and gold pillars of the Temple of Poseidon.
Europa
Jupiter’s sixth-closest moon has good potential for sustaining life. If NASA’s Human Outer Planets Exploration program takes place in the 2040s as hoped, there could be good infrastructure for space and time tourism by the year 2117. Imagine sipping on your morning tea, watching Jupiter rise over you – spectacular!
Vacations are a great chance to get inspired by exotic views and new experiences. Our planet holds some startling surprises – whether you discover today’s remains or travel back through time to witness them at the source!
I want to visit Atlantis!!! I’m obsessed with movies, shows and documentaries on this lost city. How does a city get lost??? I’m dying to know 🙂
You know, for all the geeky and history lore I love to follow, I know VERY little about Atlantis.. need to learn more!
Those are really neat. I like them all!
Aren’t they though?!?!
I’ve been to Pompei so would love to go back to before Vesuvius blew her top and destroyed it.
Oh man, don’t you WISH you could go back in time and see these things?! (Maybe not the explosion, but the before and after…)
HI Gingi, thanks for letting me know you were having issues. I’m not sure what that could be, I’ll check with other people to see if they have any problem too. I always have to read and comment on your blog from my phone , if I try loading your page on my computer ít freezes it. I’m not sure what that is but at least there’s no problem from my phone. Have a great rest of the week xox ♡♡♡
Oh man, thanks for letting me know!!! <3
Thanks a lot 😀
super interesting post my friend 😀

Man, everyone has been there but me! JEALOUS!
That is a tough choice, but I guess Atlantis wins.

Yeah, I kind of freaked out the first time it moved…. IT’S ALIVE!!!!!!!!
I’d go to the Markets of Pompeii despite the hinted tragedy in the poster 😀 There is a promise of food and I can never say no to that.
Hahaha, imminent peril… or food? mmmmmm, food….
gorgeous animated gif
new review on my blog
have an happy day, kisses
<3 <3 <3
Wow, what a great illustrations, especially I love 1st one with Jurassic Age 🙂
I like that one too! <3
Wow! Wonderful post! Very interesting!

Thanks sweetie! <3
These are so cool! I think I’d go with Atlantis from these options. 🙂
I wonder what the death toll would be in each of these destinations? haha #cynicalthought
These images are so great, love them! Tough choice between Atlantis and Europa!
I was wondering when someone would be the OTHER PLANET! 😉
I’m loving these posters! I guess if I had to pick one I’d go with Jurassic. Although Atlantis sounds pretty nice too! What about you?
Hmmmm, probably Jurassic! 😉
Wonderful products, dear! Have a great week! xoxo
<3
Love all of these, and they are very creative, but I think my fave would have to be Pompeii for the food of course. (lol)
WOW, I did NOT expect Pompeii to be the most popular!!!
You know I love anything to do with art, and these are so fantastic! They are witty and I love their take on history. I was really digging the Neanthradal and Pompeii illustrations. The Pompeii one really had me chuckling.

Oh those are so fun! I think I would pick markets of Pompeii, but like pre eruption days lol.
Hahaha, that one is the clear winner!
Ooh, I like the Jurassic Age images the most! Such a fun post, thanks for sharing 🙂

Yeah, if I could be SURE I wouldn’t get eaten, I think that is the one I would pick too!
These are so creative and the graphics are really well done!
Yeah, I love these!!
That’s a hard question Gingi! I can’t pick just one. I’d love to see all of these 😀 But just before things go bad eg Pompeii!
Hahahaha, what, no one wants to see the eruption?! 😉 😉
Pompeii would be my choice! It looks amazing and the architecture you would see would be incredible! And also the food. I’d want to eat all day long!
I would love to take a culinary tour through history myself!!! <3
Love these illustrations! If I had to pick one, I’d go to Pompeii!

DANG, clear winner!
I love your unique spin on time travel. Wouldn’t that be so fun? I wouldn’t even want to change anything, I would just want to be a fly on the wall or something…and then safely return home, haha.

I agree! <3
All the locations would be so cool to visit! 🙂
I like the dino one the best tho! <3
atlantis or pompei! atlantis looks warm and beachy and relaxing (aka everything that isn’t the current cold and rainy weather), but you sold me at FOOD for pompei lol. i love farmers markets and food-centric public markets (sf’s ferry building is my happy place), so pompei sounds like it’d be tons of fun.
Man, you guys are really starting to sell me on Pompeii! lol!
I would love to go to Pompei. I’ve read about the city and the people who lived there and it’s fascinating yet what a tragic end xx
Yeah, I forever think of that Dr. Who episode when I think of Pompeii tho… heh
Thanks a lot 😀
super interesting

Hahaha! Yes! Another out of planet pick!
This is awesome. I would love any of these, but right now I’m feeling the ski trip.

Hahaha, I haven’t ever gone skiing before, can you believe?!
For me I think the Jurassic Age or Atlantis… although I wouldn’t mind Europa either (that would be quite the view)!
