| 3 | Getting Too High In Vegas With A Fake Bruno Mars | 2022-07-22 |
| After failing to make any money from his blind date, Taji has another chance. He has been given the opportunity to renew the vows of a couple at the Graceland Chapel. The only snag is that he has to do it as Elvis, and he has no experience in celebrity impersonation. So he calls in an impersonator of a former Elvis impersonator… Bruno Mars aka Johnny Rico. Taji meets Johnny on the strip for a crash course in celebrity impersonation. The next day, Taji shows up to the Graceland Chapel to marry Missy and Joe and gives them an experience they will never forget.

| Having made it back to Vegas safe and sound, VICE bails Taji out with some accommodation. And as your guide, it is his responsibility to find any opportunity to mingle with the locals, and he has a plan. Taji has a blind date organized, and not only does he want to guarantee that she has the most special time imaginable, it’s a potential opportunity to recoup some of his lost funds. So Taji calls Quinn, a male escort for the Cowboys4Angels agency, for some help. Quinn puts Taji through his paces and helps him prepare for his date and hopefully, make a little cash. To cover all bases, Taji calls in mind reader Alain Nu who observes the date from nearby and provides Taji with supernatural insight on what his date is thinking. | ||

| 34 | Kingdom of the Little People | 2014-03-11 |

In mushroom-shaped homes and old dormitories, a community of dwarfs—all less than 51 inches tall—can be found singing, dancing, and performing on a daily basis for visiting tourists. In this episode of The VICE Guide to Travel, we send VICE magazine's creative director, Annette Lamothe-Ramos, to visit the controversial theme park, Kingdom of the Little People. | ||
| 33 | Miss Camel Beauty Contest | 2014-02-28 |
| The desert may be one of the last places on Earth you'd expect to find a beauty pageant. But on Christmas Day, while you were busy testing the limits of your digestive system, VICE's Charlet Duboc was traipsing through sand dunes in Abu Dhabi's remote Western Region, all in the name of beauty. In the West, we think nothing of beauty contests for dogs, horses, flowers, even women. But the leggy, doe-eyed lovelies on parade here are of the four-legged variety, and are judged on such criteria as having a nice firm pair of ears and floppy lips. Just like supermodels, at the height of their careers camels can command millions of dollars. Who knew? While the super-car or the SUV has replaced the camel as the most popular means of transportation in the modern Emirates, the animal retains an important place in the nation's heart. "Beautiful camel" may strike you as something of an oxymoron. But many a bedouin or sheikh will think nothing of dropping up to $3 million dollars on a so-called prized beauty, in the hope that she'll bring home the coveted Bayraq—the fairest camel in the land. In this episode of The VICE Guide to Travel, Charlet finds herself the only woman in the desert, looking for the elusive beauty in the beast. | ||

| 26 | The VICE Guide to the Balkans | 2012-01-09 |
| While most of us were still hung up on grunge, the republics of the former Yugoslavia spent the early 90s hung up on seceding into their own countries and mass-murdering people over infinitesimal ethnic differences. And the mid 90s. And the late 90s. To commemorate 12 years without a major attempted genocide, we decided to rent a Yugo and take a road trip through the Balkans to see what's going on and try to wrap our thinkers around what was up with all that ethnic cleansin'. | ||

| 22 | Mongolian Yak Festival | 2011-02-20 |
| VBS travels to the vast epic-ness of Khovsgol Province in northern Mongolia to check in on the second annual Yak Festival. Mongolians revere the mighty yak for powering Genghis Khan’s bloody rampage through Asia and Europe. And for their pretty hair.

The Kentucky Derby this is not. | ||

| 18 | Illegal Border Crossing Park | 2010-02-01 |
| The Mexican town of El Alberto lies 800 miles south of the US border in the state of Hidalgo. It’s pretty much like any other town of 3,000 people, except in El Alberto they offer tourists the chance to participate in a simulated illegal border crossing. It all happens at a standard recreational park with swimming pools, river trips, zip lines, and the other typical fare. We took a few cameras and headed for the EcoAlberto Park to spend some late-nights running through underground tunnels on the heels of our personal “Coyote” while being chased by border patrol. While we were there, we crashed a quinceñera party and saw El Alberto from the perspective of the locals. We find that when Mexicans cross the border to pursue the “American Dream,” their real aim is to bring a slice of the pie back home to Mexico. And so they do, provided they can run fast enough. | ||

We finally decided to check it out for ourselves, at the peak of its craziness: the annual Mardi Grass Festival. | ||
