Travel Recommendations in Europe (based in Munich) I’m doing an internship based in Munich for 3 months during the summer. It’s hybrid so I am able to go travel and work in another country/city if I want to. This is my first time in Europe and I really want to make the most of the opportunity by packing my weekends + few workdays around the weekends and do as many trips as possible. Anybody have…

Cities that never sleep which are busy from 10 pm-5 am? What are some cities that are bustling from 10 pm – 5 am (midnight, early morning hours)? In other words, where you can easily find something to eat outside at street stalls, cafes, and supermarkets during times like midnight or 3 am. It’s because I’m a digital nomad who typically works night shifts with clients and employers on the other side o…

Is it worth going to Thailand in August? Hi, everybody. My dad and I want to go to Thailand for the first time this summer. Most of his paid vacation days are in August, so that’s the only time we can realistically go. We want to go for 2 weeks – Bangkok – Ko Samui (+ island hopping from there). I know August is the wet season, but how bad is it actually? As in bad enough for the rain …

Lonely Planet’s Demise Has anyone else noticed how awful Lonely Planet has gotten? The layout, information, and literature is just simply sloppy. I’ve been skimming through about 40 pages of the newest edition of the East Africa book that was published November 2023 and have found so many typos and grammatical error; as if half of it was written on a smartphone and n…

Fiji Airways (Rant ⚠️ Warning) I waited for my connection from Sydney to Fiji, then LAX, the Sydney kiosk displayed gate 60 was my terminal. I took a photo luckily to ensure this was the flight & right flight #. I even asked 4 other people working at the airport. I waited 4 1/2hrs, double checked as it had no arriving planes at my gate (no Fiji Airways help desk by the way) …

Silly question regarding checking in if I only have a carry-on I always take a checked bag with me when traveling, but for my next trip I’ll be taking just a carry on. In this scenario, do I need to go to the airport counter like I usually do when I need to check in my bag, or can I proceed straight to the security gate upon entering the airport? This is for Alaksa Airlines domestic flight. Thank you! s…

Vent- choose your travel companions wisely. A terrible group can ruin an otherwise perfect trip! Omg, I just returned from an alleged dream trip to South East Asia. Everything we planned went perfectly. Our companions ruined an otherwise “perfect” get away. I love South East Asia. Everything about it just makes me happy. It’s a long flight from my home base of the US, but there is no placed I’ve been that I haven’t adored. (OK, there are a…

Good places for Autistic Americans? Hi there. I was planning on going to a trip to Croatia after my graduation. I had booked the hotels, but then things weren’t lining up, and I got scared, and had a meltdown. This is typical of people with Autism. I have canceled my plans, and now feel very defeated and sad. I’ve been wanting to go to Croatia for 10+ years now, and I thought it c…

I’m addicted in going to Japan… I’ve been there 5 times now and I can’t seem to stop myself from going again… is addiction to a country a thing? All that is in my head is Japan. Nothing else… has anyone else had this addiction before? Is there an AA for this form of addiction? Lol submitted by /u/commentman10

People who can spend 8 hours at museums in one go, what’s your secret? Maybe I’m just low energy but if I’m at my bed or on the couch, I could easily spend 6 hours reading about art pieces and going through their Wikipedias. But I come to the art museum and after 3 hours, I’m fatigued and ready to leave (it happened today at the National Gallery of Art) Is this normal? I have 5 days in Paris in June, including a da…

Multiple city break options Me and my dad went on our first multiple city break trip last September: Vienna – Bratislava – Budapest. We flew into Vienna and spent 2 nights there, took the train to Bratislava and spent half a day there and then took the train to Budapest and spent two nights there and flew home (Dublin). In the past, me and my Dad have explored several cap…

A better way to visit Cairo, Luxor, and Petra during one trip? Hi all! I’ve started trying to plan a week and a half long trip to Egypt and Petra next April, but I’m having a hard time figuring out exactly where I should stay, or how to get from place to place. I read from several reddit posts that many people preferred staying in Luxor compared to Cairo, but apparently there aren’t ever any flights leaving…

Knee-friendly travel destinations? My partner and I are looking to get away and relax a bit this summer (June or early July) most likely in the US somewhere, or at least easy access from east coast US. Usually when we travel, we go for more outdoorsy, mountainous, or adventurous vacations, but my partner is between knee surgeries currently, and can’t really walk more than a mile …

End of May – Buenos Aires or Casablanca? Hello! End of May and early June is supposedly a good time to visit both cities. Looking to get some advice on which place to go to. I’m looking to go away for a week and my budget is around 1500-2000 USD. I’m a city person, and I love exploring cities by walking through neighborhoods and checking out the usual tourist attractions. Edit: I’ll …

Do you get tired of traveling/ want to travel less with age? I am simply wondering how your feelings towards travel has changed with age. I’m 30 and returned from 3 weeks in Africa just two months ago and feel like I need to get away. I am going through some personal stuff, fear of being stuck at home and not feel like I will be able to travel enough. (fear of building a family for example) People arou…

What makes a travel destination “good” for you? I guess everyone’s different. Some people might like a travel destination for the history, food, architecture etc. I guess it all depends on what sort of traveller you are. For me, warm, friendly and hospitable locals make the destination. I also love a sense of exploration and a proper adventure so anywhere I can do that also ticks lots of box…

If I book separate tickets, will I have to go through TSA again for my checked bag? ​ I am flying to Athens Greece in June and am so confused about tickets. I can fly from CLT to ATL, and then ATL to Greece, all on the same airline, and save about $400 if I book the tickets separately. However, a similar flight that is booked together is significantly more expensive. I will be traveling with a carry-on AND a checked bag, and I …

Limited mobility in Spain My husband and I (40s) are leaving in a week for a 2 week vacation in Spain (Barcelona > Madrid > Seville) and because I’m THAT person, I managed to sprain my ankle yesterday 🤦🏻‍♀️ While I’m still hoping that my ankle will be somewhat functional by the time we leave, I’m preparing for the worst. How are the accommodations for persons with limit…

Best cities for walking in the US? Hey guys! My boyfriend and I are currently considering doing a trip for both of our birthdays. We are going to be 21 and 22, so we more than likely won’t be able to rent a car. I’d love something that is easily walkable or has lots of public transportation! I’m a huge foodie so would love some nice restaurants and some shopping areas. We both l…
