Rent classic British cars from the 1960’s and onwards. Go on, son. You know it makes sense.
There are 195 countries in the world today, more than enough to keep you busy for the rest of your life, likely. And, when the inevitable comes and taps you on the shoulder, suggesting that maybe you should slow down on the quest to see all 195 of them, you might want to think of your Plan…
Riddle me this: you need to travel from A to B, but the logistics are getting in your way, literally. If it takes too long on a boat to get there, what are your options? Fly, you might say. OK, but, in this case, there are dozens of islands with no…
This is not a story about getting deals or tips for all of your photography needs. No, this is nothing of the sort. In fact, we're even a wee bit reluctant to even put forward this content, as it borders on trash journalism. But, given that the source is Gary Leff, a…
We assume that, since you're on our site, you like to travel. And, if that's the case, we also assume that you have experienced some of the complexities of travel, especially when it comes to booking tickets with airlines. The rules can often be - to most humans - overly complex and difficult to understand. …
That title probably sounds a bit horrific, but worry not. Once you learn more about this travel phrase and what it actually means, it may just become your new best friend, specifically if you are looking to buy airline tickets and want to get the best deal. An open jaw ticket is a type…
You don't see too many tours to the Antarctic, and there's a reason for that. First, most humans flee at full speed away from frigid temperatures. Unless you're a skier, you are usually looking for deals to Tahiti or similar climes. It's always nice to come back from a trip without frostbite.…
In this day and age, there aren't many monarchies around anymore. Many see it as an outdated hangover from the past. Others (like us) understand that sentiment, but also appreciate the sheer fact that these kinds of historical constructs can even exist to this day. Some monarchies end up being A. totalitarian…
Sigh . . . there are the rich, and then there are the super rich. Many of them are hidden away, amassing their fortunes behind closed doors, periodically peeking out to survey the world, much of which they already own. If that's a world where you see yourself, good luck. We support…
Are you the edgy type? Looking for something new and different? How about going underground . . . literally. And it's actually perfect if the weather is lousy. How about Rolling hills, deep river valleys, and the world's longest known cave system? Mammoth Cave National Park is home to thousands…
C'mon. Admit it. You're still a kid. You still love all of the things that you used to love, even if your bones and muscles don't always agree. Roller coasters. Surfing. Go-karts. You know. Well, even if your body complains, there are still lots of things to do where you…
As if being in Spain isn't enough for your average tourist, we have something here that will make visiting even more exciting, especially if you like a good deal . . and a good deal more.

It’s the most dominant fast food chain on the planet, serving 68 million customers a day in 120 countries. You won’t spot the golden arches, though, anywhere on one tiny island in the easternmost Caribbean. “Bajans didn’t like it,” says Michael Harrison when asked about the absence of McDonalds in Barbados. “When they want a…
Provence is for you. As we say, start slowly, then taper off. And then explore Luberon Market & Villages
This is kind of an unusual post for us, as it focuses on the place where we live, as it happens. Every big city has its own unique characteristics. Whether it's the climate, or the views or the language or the food. Some of these characteristics might blend from city to city…
Don't be afraid of the dark. We humans have found a way to conjure up almost any scenario, whether real, imminent or purely fictional. "The end is nigh!" "We only have X number of days on this planet before it implodes!" Well, in our opinion, so far, so good -…
Does trying to book a flight on an airline sometimes feel like witchcraft? That is, you poke around on dozens of travel sites, pull out your calculator, plug the figures into your spreadsheet, compare with other sites and then end up with different costs as you go from site to site? (Don't blame…
Ah, it's a funny old world, isn't it? When things go wrong, you have a few choices. 1. Get angry and throw a fit. 2. Just deal with it - it happens. Or 3 - in this case. Turn it into a laugh-out-loud lesson. An American Airlines passenger arrived…
Some visual eye-candy that, without words, will speak for itself. Sit down with a big glass of Montepulciano and plan your next trip to the city of mirrors.
