We have a quiz for you. No prizes, sadly. In the world of love, we certainly know how and where triangles fit. But how about in the world of travel? Triangles exist, but it has nothing to do with overexcited pilots and cabin crew. And there is no connection to the Bermuda Triangle, either. We're…

Europeans - and we include the UK here - generally tend to be ahead of the curve when it comes to things like healthcare, social security, immigration . . . and the environment. The UK has published its Transport Decarbonisation Plan. The intent to decarbonise all modes of domestic transport by 2050. Is that too…
This sounds like fun, but, most importantly, has a very good intent at its heart. You can win two seats on one of the first Virgin Galactic flights to space. Sir Richard Branson is putting his money and his spaceship where his mouth is. Here's what's you can look forward to: Make history as you…

For us, we're always happy to see countries, cities and even individuals find their place in the sun to shine. And it happens more and more every day. We love India, and so we're pleased to see that the city of Darbhanga is now officially hosting flights to Kolkata and Hyderabad. And the airline who…
There can never be enough opportunities to reach out: to family, friends, initiatives. It is critical to us, as humans. But, sometimes it is difficult, if not impossible to do so. But, a creative and enterprising group, the Benediktas Gylys Foundation bring new thinking to being together. For the first time in history, countries and…

Flamingos and pelicans and herons…oh my! Holbox Island is beloved by bird nerds for its population of exotic avian life. Perched near the Yucatan Peninsula, the island is also a hot spot for whale shark viewing, and kiteboarders love the shallow waters and wide beaches. The white sand streets are relatively unspoiled, as most tourists…

We're very excited to welcome a new affiliate friend, one who has always been a favourite of not only much of Europe, but also of the smarter half of the Matouring.com team.
We are, of course, talking about Desigual. As they say themselves, "In reality, Desigual isn’t a brand. It’s a group of people who believe…
Some hotels offer rates that include breakfast. You need to figure out how likely to buy breakfast you are – and how much you’ll save. Sometimes the ‘breakfast included’ price is really just the room rate plus the cost of breakfast. And if you skip breakfast even one day, for instance you leave too early…
Cooking is a pleasure and a chore at the same time, especially if you're the designated chef - every night. And that can get boring when you run out of ideas and steam. Well, our affiliate friends at EatWith have got some ideas for you. And travel can be part of the menu. Eatwith is…
If you've been to Spain (and if you haven't, get going!) you'll likely recognise the name Mercadona. It is one of the country's largest grocery chains.
As you probably know, many companies (like us, for example) assemble their names by concatenating one or more words together into something recognisable, but not a "real" word.
Some have wondered…
To those of us who live in Canada, there is a well-known name, but it might not be as well known to the rest of the world: Air Transat. Air Transat is Canada’s number one leisure airline. It flies to some 60 international destinations in more than 25 countries in the Americas and Europe, offers…
If you haven't travelled to India (even recently,) there is a lot going on when it comes to air travel. Air India has always been the stalwart, and will likely remain that way. But, with companies like Vistara and GoAir - and now IndiGo, travelers in India are spoiled for choice. IndiGo is punching above…
If you're an inquisitive pathfinder, likely your dreams and your aspirations take you all over the map. But the world is a rather big place. Wouldn't it be great to be able to spend time being there rather than online, planning? Well, have we got news for you. We'd especially like to feature our affiliate…
As the world gets larger, it also gets smaller, as it gets richer. Overall world income is increasing, with the resultant buying power of a newly richer population. People travel more, which can often change their outlook. Uprooting and landing somewhere else is no longer an activity only for the rich. The world is mobile.

Some people have all the problems. For example, they live in Paris, not so far from Gare de Nord. They opt to take a night train. Luxurious, fast and totally European. But, they wake up suddenly, only to realise that they're in Venice, not three stops down. Tsk. Such problems. All jokes aside, European rail…
When you land at an airport, there often only seems to be two states of being once you arrive: "run-run-run" or "languish-for -hours."
How many times can you walk up and down the concourse before losing your mind? Or how fast (and how far) and which gate do you need to run to in order to…
You may not be aware of a rather great travel product - Navmii. It's been around for decades, but (we feel) doesn't have the visibility that it should have. The company itself has its fingers in lots of areas, but for our audience, Navmii is an excellent alternative / companion to the ever-present Google Maps.…
