This is back to the future and back to the past. Dress warmly.

If you've had enough of "what's up guys?" videos and the same three places to go in Rome, may we enrich the history content for you thinking people who look forward to yesteryear, or back to the future. We often find that this kind of travel is the best kind. Why? You…
We're branching off a bit here from the "normal" posts that you typically see on our site. This essay is not purely about travel, even though travel will, indeed show its face soon enough. Let's set a marker that music is a big deal for us, as we assume it is for you.…
This isn’t just a train ride, it’s your chance to intimately experience the heart and soul of Canada. So go ahead, pack your bags and rail away!
Off we go again today, searching for - and delivering - another reason to visit our site regularly. So, as lovely and as unforgettable as they are, how many times can you visit Venice or Paris? Or, perhaps better said, how many times do you think you might want to skip Venice or…
Here's another in a long line of distinguished posts that make you want to scratch your head and, perhaps walk into a different room with some aspirin. But, on the other hand, it's a delight for those who really, really, love airplanes. You'll get the full picture when you watch the video, but…
Meet Bangkok Airways. You can check out any time you’d like, but you can never leave. You won’t want to!
Cruise ships evoke strong opinions, and Royal Caribbean offers adventures like bumper cars, ziplining, and even scuba diving. There’s relaxation in the adults-only Solarium and activities such as language learning and wine tasting. The iconic new ship, Icon of the Seas, is a marvel, accommodating 5,610 passengers, ready for travelers to book their adventure.
We recently stumbled upon this video from ohAFRO and were rather taken aback. Firstly, the title is rather, shall we say, straightforward. Nothing wrong with that, we guess. But we still thought it was a wee bit brazen. Nonetheless, the channel posted it on YouTube, so they must know what they're…
In this post, we focus on Europe and more specifically, the UK. We write about these places a lot simply because the UK and Europe are top travel locations. (For reference here, England is a country that is part of the United Kingdom, UK.) It shares land borders with Wales to…
As ever, we here at Matouring are, at heart, techno-geeks. We love the latest materials and manufacturing techniques, and the sheer cleverness of the builders and designers who are creating some of the most unfathomable products for all of us to behold and, soon, to enjoy. We may not see the fruits of…
Yes, it probably seems like an odd title for a post, because we, too, wondered about how many beaches there are in Riga. From our fuzzy memories, we seem to recall Riga as being landlocked and in some ways, forlorn and forgotten. But, as you'll - and as we discovered, Latvia offers way…
Hardly! And, so, here's another post for those with palpable wanderlust. Are you the type? Do you long to see everywhere on the planet before you shuffle off this mortal coil? Do you have no problems with wandering through the weeds or the woods to find yourself in nowhere, so to speak?…
We would guess that many of us - perhaps even most of us - will skip buying travel insurance when we go. You look at the offers, weigh the plusses and minuses and then either hope for the best, or trust that, perhaps, our credit cards will have the necessary coverage in case of…
Do we ever run out of things to do in Europe? No, not likely. Even when you have haunted the same tourist traps over and over again, you'll walk around the corner and a new and delightful activity will jump out into your path. And so many of these things to do…
For many decades, hunting wild animals was "the thing to do" if you considered yourself as a "sportsman." Never mind that dozens of species were dying out because of the "sport." Luckily, many more forward thinking people realised that hunting was not sustainable. The most significant criticism revolved around the impact on…
If they've been in the right places, most world travelers will have been in a Tuk Tuk. They're a great way to get around, much better than using a monster truck or some other form of inefficient transport. And there are a lot of them: Wikipedia says As of 2022 India has…
