Croatia, Slovenia, or Hungary for early October trip? My SO and I are planning an early October trip and have about 9 days to travel. We’ve been researching Croatia or Slovenia mostly with the possibility of adding Budapest as a stop (and posts on this sub have been very helpful so far). We enjoy a mix of city exploration, outdoors, and sightseeing and are up for anything. I was wondering if you h…

Has anyone become a more nervous traveler with age? Tomorrow I will be going to Japan for the 28th time. It should be a routine trip for me, right? Well, I have been anxious for the past few days, to the point where I had to buy stomach medicine because I was bloated by stress. It seems like after I got a full time job and started living on my own, I developed a kind of fear of travelling. Before…

Priceline doesn’t refund me even though the hotel refunded them Hi everyone, basically the hotel agreed to refund for 1 night because they messed up. I called the hotel to ask if the refund has been processed, they said the money was refunded to Priceline. Priceline said there’s nothing they can do to assist me. What should I do? submitted by /u/BigMauriceG

Travelling with Vyvanse: spreadsheet for what countries restrict entry? TL/DR: Are there any resources that show what countries restrict ADHD medication (specifically Vyvanse)? If not, would anyone be interested in helping me make a spreadsheet that lists the regulations for different countries? Hi everyone! For the first time in years I’ve been in a position where I can have the ability to go travelling for a whil…

Less expensive to travel abroad??? WTF? So, I hope I can clearly paint my picture and get around to asking my question. I live in Newfoundland, Canada and it’s often more expensive to fly to other locations within Canada than it is to fly to international destinations (specifically the US) and that is becoming increasingly frustrating. We’re an enormous geographic country so I underst…

Does anyone else get surprised to see their country/city here as a destination for others, as well as the recommended things to do while there? I’ve been thinking a bit about the concept of ‘being a local’, and how everyone is one of the elusive, authentic locals to the city that they are from. I’m from a pretty nondescript town in England, and I always find it surprising when on here and other travel forums I see people planning trips to England beyond a few days in London or York at a…

Taking spending money to Las Vegas. I have a British bank account. Hey, I’m heading to Vegas in a month. I need some advice on which is the best way to take spending money? Cash? Load up a travel card? If i draw straight from my account i’m fairly sure i’ll get screwed on fees both sides. TIA Rich submitted by /u/Rich_777

Regrets while traveling I flew to China last month and when entering you have to fill some paperwork with flight information and some other things I don’t really remember now. When doing things I noticed a lady with a small kid and some dude by her side. She was struggling to finish her paperwork, but you know, I had flown for something like 15 hours and I just wanted …

Throwing a knife through the metal detector at the airport… sure I travel quite a bit and have seen my share of ridiculousness, but this one was definitely a winner. This was about a week ago at Portland Intl. airport at the TSA pre-check line. Elderly dude (mid to late 50’s) in Hawaiian shirt and shorts has to step through the metal detector and sets it off. Is told to go back and empty his pockets. He clea…

Just got bashed up on a subreddit for asking for travel recommendations lol So I’m planning to visit europe for 2 weeks and this is my first time so I’m really excited about it. I’ve saved up a lot for it and have micro planned everything like any other excited travelers lol. I did post a question on a subreddit of one of the cities I’ll be visiting to get more recommendations for exploring villages around the city, “al…

What’s your travel opinion/habit that travel snobs would rip you apart for? I’ll go first: I make it a point when I visit a new country to try out their McDonalds. food is always shaped by a countries history and culture, so I think it’s super interesting to see the country specific items they have (beer in germany, Parmesan puffs in Italy, rice buns in Japan!) Same reason that even though I hate cooking I still love to…

Looking for a super Christmassy and festive European destination for early December My Mom and I are planning to go to Europe for a few days (maybe 4, max 5 full days) in early December. We really are looking for something that is super super festive and charming – think Christmas markets, decorations, beautiful buildings, cozy pubs and cafes. Etc. We’ve already been to the major destinations (specifically Prague, Vienna, Budap…

Cayman Islands Does anyone have personal experience with visiting Cayman Islands? I’m planning to go for one week in October or November. Mostly scuba diving and snorkeling. Looking for advice in regards to places to stay. Seems seven mile beach is the best. Rather than falling for online marketing and staying within medium sized budget. The upscale places wit…

Passport issues covered by travel insurance? Hi folks, My partner and I were planning to head off on an international trip, but on the day of our flight she realised she’d cancelled her passport a few years back and forgotten to re-instate it. Because of the late notice, she wasn’t entitled to a refund and needed to book a new ticket a week later. She held a basic travel insurance policy (…
