Ever considered it might be you? We tend to blame others on “bad group trips” and we didn’t get along because they’re annoying travel partners. Have you ever thought that it might actually be you?

My mom is scaring me about a trip I’m planning to Tulum as a solo female traveler Ok guys my mom is getting in my head. I’m a solo female traveler, extremely petite, and according to my mom this matters: I’m not unattractive. I don’t know how else to say this without coming across as vain or full of myself. I want to go to Tulum as a spur of the moment trip, potentially leaving next week – and my mom is acting like I’m going …

Will I get stuck at the US/Canada Border? I’m a US citizen who post their passport and stupidly forgot that I would need it to drive past the US/Canada border. I realized this a few days before and have heard conflicting statements from various immigration officials that I would/ wouldn’t be able to cross into Canada or that I wouldn’t be able to cross back into the U.S. To supplement …

SoloTravel- joining a random tour group? So next September I am planning a trip to Japan for my 30th birthday. Most of my friends can’t afford or don’t want to go (craziness) and I am definitely not letting anything stop me from going. I’ve never traveled internationally so having a group of others might be nice. Has anyone else tried the travel tour group packages? It looks like they …

Flying to Havana Cuba from Miami – non US Citizen Hello, I am interested to travel to Havana in the coming months through Miami as a non US Citizen.

Anyone took that route recently and can share some information? Thanks a lot submitted …

Phone Lost – Insurance Claim Currently in Barcelona and went hiking today only to have someone bump me from behind and my phone went tumbling down the mountainside. I know each policy differs but are lost phones generally covered under baggage or trip interruption (or neither)? My policy doesn’t really go into detail on phone loss unless it gets lost with baggage in a fligh…

Looking for recommendations on Egypt Nile River cruises I will be traveling with my wife to Egypt and while I have heard horrible things about Egypt, I want to do a package tour where we will be with a guide the entire time.

The plan so far is: Flying into Edinburgh, staying for 3 nights. Next stop, Inverness for 2 nights. Lastly, Glasgow for 2 nights. The whole time we are driving.

I don’t understand the dislike for Sofia Bulgaria I’m here and I absolutely love it. There’s so many beautiful and massive buildings, some of which are unique. There’s museums, there’s a mosque, a gorgeous cathedral, nature trails in the mountains. Roman ruins. I hear everyone say you can do Sofia in a day but I really think I’ve only scratched the surface of this place. People say “go to Plovd…

I feel like I’ve spent so much and I’ve barely started my 8 week journey I’m backpacking across Europe and I started two Tuesdays ago. Excluding trains and hostels (both of which are prepaid) I’ve spent €800. I feel like that’s too much but most of that is doing museums and things. Am I being too quick to do stuff, or should I keep doing what I’m doing? submitted by /u/SnowyMuscles

Deboarding plane etiquette Currently in the middle of a journey across the US and I noticed an unfortunate trend (this is at least the third time I’ve seen it). When it’s time to deboard, people in the back are getting up first and walking down the isle… Only because everyone else in front of them is sitting and waiting their turn. I try to block the isle by standing o…
