Suggestions for a surprise trip for my girlfriends?! My five best friends, always up for any travel adventure, have agreed to let me plan a surprise trip for our group. I’ll make all the bookings, they’ll show up at the airport, and I’ll reveal the location. They are wonderfully laid-back, so I know they won’t be disappointed with whatever I plan. However, I’m still feeling the weight of this resp…

Can someone please verify my airport procedure? Hi, I’m flying for the first time tomorrow and I’m very anxious. I will be alone and I have ASD which I’m only mentioning because I often get tunnel vision during stressful situations and shut down. To combat this I’ve done research and made a list. It would be greatly appreciated if somebody with experience could take a look and let me know if …

France or Italy for someone who enjoys local shopping/markets? It’s kind of tough to find much online about what the non-luxury shopping scene is like in different cities. I love visiting boutiques, flea markets, seeing locally made goods etc. I’m on the fence whether to spend a couple weeks in France or Italy. I’m a little more drawn to France but the overall internet consensus seems to be that Italy is t…

Traveling to quaint villages in Europe by train suggestions So last year I spent 10 days in the south of France. My Airbnb was in Nice and we took day trips via train to Eze, Menton, Antibes, and Grasse, plus some of the less touristy villages along the train line. It was really convenient to have the train take you to all of these unique villages. My question is, could you all recommend similar trips li…

Georgia transport question Im visiting Tbilisi in May and also wanted to go to Uplistsikhe and then stay a few days in Kazbegi to go hiking. I will not have a car.

Any advice is welc…

Trip to the Grand Canyon I had been wanting to visit Nahanni National Park in Canada’s far north, but the costs in getting there are so prohibitive, so I decided to visit the Grand Canyon instead. Pictures and movies can’t tell the whole picture. You need to actually be there and experience it in person! submitted by /u/Admirable_Fall4614

How much of Colombia is truly shut down on Christmas Day, or are things open for tourists? For exam…

Portugal Motorcycle Trip – Recommendations I’m putting together a motorcycle itinerary for Portugal that starts in Porto. I’m trying to figure out if it makes sense to see as much as possible without be incredibly overloaded. The purpose of the trip is to enjoy the ride ride through the country, not just to get from place to place. Given that, are there places that can be taken off or ad…
