Do Something Different
This post is only for those who are sturdy, brave and unflappable. (No, not really - this is for everyone.) Once again, as is part of Matouring's mission, we present content to you, our lovely readers, that we hope informs and entertains you. We suggest places to go and things to do that,…
Are you one of those types who simply can't sit around when you're on holiday? (We're that way, for sure.) Now, given your stated mode of holiday, are you looking for the next big thing? Maybe something that you've always wanted to do, but were unsure where to start? How about getting…
If you want to make money in this world, you have to think big. Or, as PT Barnum once said “No one ever made a difference by being like everyone else.” This is a tale of brave business, a shrewd sense of making big statements and a sense of showing off. But,…
Literally. If you don't like it when your shoes get wet, this may not be the holiday option for you. Climb inside one of the world's smallest volcanos and enjoy a relaxing soak in the warm mud. Experience the healing properties of the mineral-infused mud while having fun at the Totumo Volcano. …
Greece is a fabulous place. Even if you're not a history buff (you might want to rethink that, as history is everywhere in Greece,) you will never run out of things to see or do. (See some suggestions at the bottom of this page.) But, the Greek government are gently asking visitors to,…

No, this doesn't involve growing a beard and chopping down trees (although you might have time for that, anyway.) But that doesn't mean that you won't feel part of the Canadian experience. And, even better, you get travel from east to west in one of the world's most revered rail adventures. When you…

After living in lockdown for the best part of two years, the idea of packing a bag and moving to the other side of the world is very tempting - especially as the cost of living crisis bites. So, are you aching for something new and exciting? Surely you'll know that Brazil is an…
One would imagine that almost everyone - at least in their dreams - aspire to "The Good Life." This phrase can take on many meanings - as many meanings as there are people on this earth. But, it's safe to say that we all want something more, even if it's just a…
Here's another article about our favourite place, Europe. But this one is probably the weightiest subject matter we've ever covered: you'll need to duck just to avoid the puns. You are what you eat. And this place - La Maisonnette Narbonnaise - Narbonne, France is worth driving to, as you will likely have trouble walking out.…
Safaris used be rather dangerous and - in the case of the animals - deadly propositions. Men with names like George or Nigel would take a steam liner to Africa from one of the colonies, with their pipes, rifles and maps in hand. Sleeping rough in tents, they would spend the night regaling…
No, that's not a typo. It really is slick. Some countries do not have the "visibility" of others, for one reason or another. One reason might be that their offerings are not as well know or reported. Another reason might be that people have preconceptions - usually outdated - about what the country…
There are so many options when it comes to travel: planes, trains, automobiles, ships, tours . . . the list goes on and on. But here's a travel option that you might not have thought of, or not have thought of as "travel" anyway - hiking. When you think about it, it…
We all know of places like Machu Pichu, Stonehenge, The great wall of China, the Moai statues of Easter Island, Chile, for example. But here is one you may not know of - and its quite spectacular. Copán is an archaeological site of the Maya civilization in the Copán Department of western Honduras, not…
We love to feature things that you might not be expecting. There is no shortage of those kinds of things in the wonderful world of ours. But, some of them make you go "wow!" and others make you say "why?" These are the adventures that you'll want to seek out, not only…
We travel a lot, and we assume you do, too. It's one of the best things in life, especially as you get older and you have learned to appreciate the finer, more subtle joys that life brings. But, sometimes you are pleasantly pleased by an unexpected find. In this case, we're speaking…
If you're in Germany, you'll know that watersports are a major thrill to the lovely citizens of that country. And there are so many lakes, rivers and options if you're a water baby, yourself. If so, we're happy to introduce you to our new affiliate friends, Eventfloss DE. What is it? A…
British Airways (our affiliate friends) have become the first UK airline to trial the use of biometric technology for international flights, enabling customers taking part in the trial to travel through the airport ‘smartly’ without having to show their passport. Customers who sign up to take part in the airline’s trial from London Heathrow Terminal…
