Mammoth Dunes Golf Course

The second 18-hole layout at Wisconsin's Sand Valley, Mammoth Dunes might be the best new course of 2018. It was conceived by Scottish architect David McLay Kidd — best known for his groundbreaking work at Bandon Dunes — and takes full advantage of its unique setting. Occupying 500 acres, it does an excellent job balancing challenge with enjoyment, thanks to an imaginative design that incorporates touches like a boomerang green, massive rolling fairways, and even a bunker built around the foundation of a settlement home from the early 1900s.

The Macallan Distillery

The Macallan has been making Scotch whisky on the same Easter Elchies estate since 1824. Its new distillery won't change that, but it's a far cry from its humble beginnings. Designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners, the $186 million facility is incredibly high-tech, with a green roof, energy needs that are met by 95% sustainable sources, and the most complicated timber roof structure in the world, with more than 380,000 elements. The new stills, the largest copper order ever for the industry, are perfect replicas of the originals, making it impossible to discern whether a whisky was distilled at the new facility or the old. Should you visit, you'll certainly have the chance to try: the bar will stock a staggering 952 different expressions, and even the standard tour includes four drams to sample.

Ice Q Mountain Restaurant

Set atop a 3,000 meter-high peak in Sölden, the Ice Q Mountain Restaurant is perhaps the world's most famous eatery not known for its food. Instead, its claim to fame came as a filming location for the James Bond film Spectre, in which it served as a futuristic hospital. Unlike in the film, it's an ideal place to enjoy a martini or a full meal in the gourmet restaurant, lined with walls of glass so as to not spoil the views of the surrounding Ötztal Alps.

Les Aviateurs Bar

Housed next to its flagship boutique on Rue du Rhône in Geneva, Les Aviateurs Bar pays homage to IWC Schaffhausen's classic Pilot's watches. The space was designed in collaboration with gastronomy partner Globus, the latter responsible for drinks like the "R. J. Mitchell", named after the designer of the Supermarine Spitfire, or the "Rose", inspired by the motif from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's story "The Little Prince". The bar itself recalls a gentlemen's club from the golden age of travel, with dark woods and leather providing a comfortable atmosphere in which to enjoy a cocktail or two.

Krypt Bar

Tucked below the streets of Vienna, Krypt Bar occupies a forgotten 18th-century cellar. The underground space was rediscovered during the renovations of the surrounding building after a sealed doorway uncovered a hidden lair. Accessed by a set of floating stairs, the large archways and exposed brickwork remain, creating a dramatic backdrop for the marble floors and gold finishes. Drinks are served at a 20-foot walnut bar while surrounding alcoves provide private booths. Along with the lounge, the area is also host to the city's smallest art gallery.

Supercar Vending Machine

A far cry from the soda dispensing machines we're accustomed to, this Supercar Vending Machine in Singapore is ready to spit out a Porsche or Lambo at the press of a button. It's not self-serve, though — instead, once you've picked your car from the inventory, the dealer taps the screen on his iPad, and your car begins its journey down the 15-story tower. In the meantime, you're treated to a video introducing the car shown with pulse-pounding bass; the dealer hopes to start offering wine or whiskey while you wait as an added perk. Once your vehicle arrives on the ground, it rotates on a turntable illuminated by spotlights, waiting for you to get in and drive.

Windrush Car Storage

Your car is your baby. Ensure it receives the best care when you're not around by parking it at Windrush Car Storage. Founded by a former Ferrari Formula One team member, these discrete, ISO 9001 certified underground storage facilities are far from your average parking garage. Upon arrival, each vehicle undergoes a 12-step process where it's photographed and recorded, washed, dried, and vacuumed, fluid levels and battery checked, and hooked to a battery conditioner before going under a breathable indoor cover. It will be checked on every day while it's there, with more detailed examinations scheduled every week and 60 days, and in immaculate condition when it's time to pick it up. Facilities are available in Central London and the Cotswolds.

Jaguar Land Rover Classic Works

The largest classic car sales, manufacturing, and restoration facility of its kind in the world, the newly opened Jaguar Land Rover Classic Works is a must-see for auto enthusiasts. Housed under its 14,000 square meter roof are a workshop with room for over 120 specialists, servicing and restoring all Jaguar and Rover models out of production for a decade or longer. The workshop also holds the remanufacturing zones for the Series I, Range Rover Classic, and Jaguar E-type Reborn programs, and the XKSS build line. Joining those more hands-on areas are the Jaguar Land Rover Classic Collection, a presentation of British motoring history comprised of more than 500 vehicles, and a dedicated showroom where you can bring home a classic of your own. Guided tours of the space begin in September.

Seeing Red: 70 Years of Ferrari

In 1947, Enzo Ferrari rolled out the first car to bear his name and the now-famous Prancing Horse — the Ferrari 125S. 70 years, over 5,000 race victories, and some of the most desirable cars ever made later, the Petersen Automotive Museum brings several historically significant Ferraris together in one place and one color. The aforementioned 125S is here, along with the most valuable car in the world, the $38-millon 250 GTO. Ferrari's strong track heritage is also represented, with the dominant 2006 Ferrari 248 F1, driven by Michael Schumacher and the 1965 Le Mans-winning 250 LM. The exhibit runs until April 2018.

Rooftop Cinema Club

Drive-in theaters are mostly a thing of the past, but there are still creative ways to take in a film during the summer. An excellent example is Rooftop Cinema Club, a summer film series that takes place on select cities' most scenic rooftops. They offer wireless headphones for each attendee to ensure the best listening experience, and you'll sit in comfy deckchairs with adjustable seat heights and plenty of legroom. Some locations allow you to bring your own beverage, while others offer a full-service bar. Film choices are a mixture of cinematic classics, 1980's favorites, and Oscar winners from as recently as last year.

Star Wars Land

Star Wars has had a presence in Disney's parks since the opening of Star Tours at Disneyland in 1987, but nothing compares to what's coming. Simultaneously under construction at both Disneyland in Anaheim and Disney's Hollywood Studios in Florida, Star Wars Land is an immersive experience that will take you on a journey to the galaxy far, far away. Highlights of the 14-acre area include an all-new ride that will let you pilot the Millennium Falcon, and a second attraction that puts you in the center of a battle between the First Order and the Resistance — with a recreation of the Cantina on-site for post-ride refreshments. While it's a little too early to make concrete travel plans, you can count on your journey embarking sometime in 2019.
