Fear not, this is not another modern day 21st century shitpost as the title might infer. We don't do that kind of thing here. What you see is what you get with Matouring. So then, what exactly are we talking about? Today, we feature a little-known, but nonetheless interesting Spanish village…
When you think of island holidays, usually Polynesia or the Pacific Ocean leaps into your mind first and foremost, for obvious reasons. Who doesn't love a sunny holiday, where the most effort that you need to expend is just to roll over in the sand? But, as you relax on that beach, you may…
It’s lonely at the top. So lay low when you can.
A UNESCO site, Benin is a top country to visit on any West African itinerary.
Hey, 23-hour party people! You know who you are and where you like to go - one of which is Ibiza, Spain's party jewel of the sea. Did you know that Tourism accounts for 84% of Ibiza's GDP? The population of Ibiza swells from 152,000 to over 450,000 during peaks months of the summer…
From our viewpoint, Chile is a country that doesn't get enough "travel love," compared to so many other countries. We might be a little bit guilty of that too, but not for long. To be fair, Chile is quite a hike to get to. Flight connections are not always easy, nor cheap.…
Stay at the SpongeBob Water Tower. Spend a holiday with Spongebob, Patrick, Mr. Crabbs and the entire Bikini Bottom clan. There are three floors in which to frolic, do the twist and get into all sorts of trouble.
Wow. Caesar Augustus himself would have wanted to stay here.
It's January of 2023 and we're absolutely loving the Amazon series The Bad Guy. Set in modern Palermo, Italy, it is an hilarious, unpredictable, subtle, violent and binge-worthy story of Mafia families, how they interact and the predictable / unpredictable outcomes that you would imagine. But, unlike most Mafia sagas, it is packed…
If ever there was a city that has universally admired vibes, its Sydney, Australia. And rightly so. The vibes are real, as are the people. Gorgeous weather, sea, sun and more, it’s worth the flight. Go, mate!
Going through passport control when traveling can be one of the most frustrating and painful events - we're sure you agree. But, it has to be done, doesn't it. And a lot of us do it. According to Statista.com, The number of international tourist arrivals worldwide dropped sharply in 2020 over the…
Surely this has crossed your mind at one time or another. Let go of your humdrum day-job for a bit. Fly away and do nothing but simply have fun. Take the kids if you have them. If not, simply act like one. And we have the place for you. …
..... is now the New Mexico. If you read many travel magazines, you'll often see "throwback" articles that (if you're old enough) remind you of resorts, hotels, restaurants and activities from the bygone era - usually the 1950's and 1960's. For those of us who were around back then, we may have been lucky…
Looking for your next travel destination? Are you a music fan? Do you like to mix the two, maybe with a little ganja and history? Well, we have the perfect combination for you. You've probably guessed it - it's Jamaica. You know it - the Caribbean island nation, that has a…
The more that we continue to work on Matouring, the more we realise how much "world" is out there. That may sound rather simplistic, but even in these modern days of being "connected" 24x7, we are still bedazzled at how much we haven't yet seen, and we've been to many, many places. We've…
Well, this topic fills us with confusement. As if travel (and even simply enjoying yourself) isn't confusing enough at times, some clever marketing boffins and "influencers" often take it upon themselves to "kick it up a notch" and come up with the latest new buzz words. Of course, there are the classics: laser…
Do hotels make you tired? Whether you're an avid traveler, or a weary business slogger, for the most parts, hotels seem to be all the same. That's not a bad thing, of course, but if leaving home and staying in typical accommodations is a standard component of your adult life (or even if…
Everyone - including us - always write about the many splendors of Italy. There are so many - where do you even start? That's why it continues to be one of the top destinations, year upon year. And we're sure that will continue to be the case for millennia. Even on…
If we could, we would like to spend most of our days floating in the bath-like waters of almost any beach or island, no matter where it is. Truly, is there anything better than lying face-up or face-down in the sand (or on a rocker or a hammock) as you slowly roast yourself to…
We're noticing that more and more people are noticing that Canada is a rather nice place to travel. Over 32 million people travel to the Great White North each year, and over 1 million Canadians call travel their line of work. It's a nice place to visit, as it is so diverse, especially…
