4 days on the island of Newfoundland, Canada, in October We spent 4 days hiking Western part of Newfoundland, around Gros Morne National Park, and we were absolutely mindblown. We were based out of a little B&B in Deer Lake that has its own airport, to avoid flying into Saint John’s on the opposite of the island. View from the Lookout trail, a must do to get a view of the whole area and the said Gros…

G Adventures vs. Intrepid Both companies have a 50-60 day trip through Africa that I’m interested in, but G Adventures is about $3000 cheaper. I have traveled with Intrepid 3 times and have been pretty happy, so I’m wondering if anyone who has done tours with both groups can compare the experience submitted by /u/SufficientAd2514

Heartwarming experience ❤️ My bf and I had the best experience today at our hotel. We have been travelling for around 6 weeks now and have explored some of Australia, New Zealand and Pacific Islands. We are currently travelling Samoa. After a great day visiting some of the local sites including waterfalls and cave pools we got back to the hotel to relax and grab a bite …

Long term travellers, how much are you paying per month to stay somewhere and where do you book it? Obviously massively varies over the world but in general how much do you plan to spend? Is it more than your home country? Airbnb is popular but it always seems expensive for anywhere that’s not far away from the action or is not a bit of a dump. And what people post in various places doesn’t seem to match up for with what they say so it feels …

19 days in New Zealand Planning a trip for end of February to March 2024. Mandatory sorry for formatting, typing up on my phone. Ideally, I would like to do both islands but from what I read I know that roads can be unwieldy and unpredictable. Also to note that is my first long trip and I have no idea how jet lag will affect me. Flying into Auckland and leaving from A…

Greyhound bus or drive up the East Coast of Aus? I am going to travel the East Coast of Australia with my friend next year (Sydney to Cairns) and wondering whether it would be cheaper to get the greyhound bus or for us to split the cost of petrol between us and drive? submitted by /u/onlymomentsago

Spirit didn’t tell me refunding was an option until it was too late So just a little rant. I’ll be charging back a ticket I bought through Spirit after they delayed a flight enough for me to me miss my connecting, then put 1 people on the line who frankly hardly cared and another who I could barely understand. They told me that all they can do is rebook my flight to the next day when I absolutely HAD to be there…

2 weeks in Switzerland/Italy over the holidays My brother and I (39 & 32) are taking our mom (67) to Europe for the first time over the holiday break. We’ve planned to fly into and out of Zurich and I want to take them to Venice, so those are our east/west boundaries, but now the rest of the planning is up to me and I’m overwhelmed. We had initially planned to rent a car (current reservatio…

A Trip to Europe for Elderly My grandmother has been my travel buddy since I was a kid. She’s took took me on my most of my memorable “first” trips. She would like to go to Europe next year some time after June and I wondering what are some good places to look at. My biggest concern is she’s in her 70s and walking isn’t her thing anymore (back problems). She can walk for ab…

Costa Rica in Christmas, was it a wrong decision? We had backpacked in Costa Rica about 10 years ago in our 30s. Had a great time and we recall tons of affordable hotels and restaurants. Was fairly easy to travel too. Fast forward to 2023, we found cheap tickets from Ireland (that’s where we live currently) and decided to go with our 6 year old. With a family oriented plan mainly in Guanacaste,…

My (2nd) Solo Trip to Washington Visited in September for my birthday. Covered about 90 miles and 22,500ft of elevation gain with 7 days hiking 1 day mountain biking. Of course, just fell more in love with WA, with its diversity of beauty. I wish I could afford to move there. Just visits for now. submitted by /u/honkyhorsepower

Jordan historical sites to visit – reccomendations? Heya 🙂 My partner and I are going to be spending around 11 days in Jordan in March, with a plan to hire a car and drive around. We’re both archaeologists and excited to see as many historical places as possible! Are there any little gem sites that people recommend that might not be as common? So far we’re thinking of staying a few nights in Amm…

Marrakech at Christmas A friend and I will be in Marrakech this Christmas (22-26th) and we’re wondering if anyone had any ideas what to do, especially for a nice lunch or dinner on Christmas Eve/Day. Also, will we find any bars there, or only in the hotels? Any other recommendations welcome too. Thank you submitted by /u/PixielinaBumsquash

One Week In London, But Wondering if Tossing in Edinburgh is a bad idea? My wife and I are going to London during Christmas week Land 12/16 9:25 PM – Depart 12/31 12:40 PM. We’ve booked dinners at places that will be open. We went to London one time in 2019 for about 4 days. We were thinking of either: A) Going to Edinburgh for 12/28 – 12/31 and flying back to Heathrow for the 12:40 PM flight. B) Doing trips to place…
