This year, make tracks for one of the hottest trends in travel right now and experience the new golden age of rail travel with Wendy Wu Tours.
Walt Disney loved rail. His parks are full of them. If it’s good enough for Walt, it’s good enough for us.
Periodically, it's good to refresh our knowledge and perceptions when it comes to travel: things change so quickly! What was once antiquated, forlorn and sketchy has since turned into a bright light of how humans get things done. One recent example is rail in East Africa. They have really taken the…
We tend to write a fair amount about our planet and its future. Nowadays, there is no shortage of obnoxious rich self-centered individuals on the planet who only think of the next business they can buy, or the next competitor they can take down. In the meantime, the planet is ablaze. They…
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!
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…
If you spend any time scouring the travel sites (including ours) it won't take much effort to see that China is - finally - becoming the place to visit. The doors are opening up, westerners are welcomed with open arms (provided that you don't prove yourself to be an idiot) and the ways and…

We write a lot about Mexico, because it has a lot to offer, of course. Sun, sea, food, lovely people and it's a holiday bargain. The country is probably more diverse than you remember and, as you jaunt from city to city, you can see how Mexico is a fascinating patchwork of interconnected…
Like a flock of sparrows in the afternoon sun, it's so satisfying to see when the sparrows (in this case humans) find a way to fly together. And, as we say until we're blue in the face, one of the best ways to do that is to save the planet in any ways that…
It's funny how some people see things differently than others, especially when those people come from a new city or country. Their perspective is often fresh and surprising to "the locals." So, when you get a glance at what you see before you, it's like a brand new day. Your tired view…
This is everyone's nightmare when you fly. What happens if all the engines on a passenger jet fail. And, as of this publication, many travelers are worried because there have been issues with the Boeing 737; in one case, what was meant to be a door on the jet was actually what's known…
