Rural Bulgaria -
Kostenets:
Village Kostenets is one of the most idyllic and relaxing places in Bulgaria.
Advice for
Visitors to Chiang Mai, Thailand:
Many guide books on Thailand only partially cover the subject of health and well-being
while travelling in the country, so I would like to give you some advice about
transportation, protocol, health, and the law.
North
Thailand Adventures:
If you don't have much time and want to go elephant riding, do a little rafting and spend
the night in a traditional hill tribe village; this is the program for you.
The Pearl of
Africa Glows Again:
Travellers to Uganda are drawn by its stunning landscape: green rolling hills, snowcapped
mountains, rainforests, majestic rivers and massive lakes. There are also a number of
outstanding national parks for your safari encounter with the wildlife for which Africa is
renowned.
Safari
in Northern Tanzania:
The magnificent collection of game sanctuaries to the north of the country, near the
border with Kenya, is referred to as The Northern Circuit. This is the most popular and
accessible wildlife safari route in Tanzania and one of the finest game viewing areas
anywhere in the world.
An
Island A Day:
Stand by the shores of Casco Bay, on the coast of Maine, and you may expect to find ocean
as far as the eye can see. Instead, seemingly endless islands dot the seascape.
Top

Did you know that when you book through Hotel Club not only do you get highly discounted
hotel rates but you can get up to 4% back in 'member dollars', to be used for even further
discounts on future bookings.
Dive
Sites in Phuket:
A famous tourist destination in Thailand, Phuket is also the portal for accessing many
diving sites around the Andaman Sea: Phi Phi island, Lanta Island, Similan Island, Surin
Island, or Burma Banks.
Shillong
-- Scotland of the East:
Northeast India is known for its scenic beauty. ArunachalPradesh, Assam, Manipur,
Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland and Tripura are the states which form the complete picture of
North-eastern India. These states are also know as the seven sisters.
New
England Meets The Caribbean:
For New Englanders a tropical island seems about as remote as the Pyramids. A summer
getaway to the beach usually means a trip to the Cape or to Maine where, while the rocky
shores may look beautiful, the water is somewhat less than welcoming.
A
Prison in Paradise:
In the middle of San Francisco Bay, framed by some of the most beautiful and majestic
views in the country, lies Alcatraz Island.
Himalayan
Adventures in Nepal:
Many visitors to India like travelling to Nepal, while they're in the region, for the
excellent trekking and other adventure activities in the Himalayas.
Castle
on The Hill:
When you think of castles, places such as Windsor, Sterling, and London come to mind. One
might not expect that San Francisco, California should be added to this list.
Visiting
Germany:
To help you plan a visit to Germany, we'd like to take you on a quick tour of the country
with the help of a regional map and related web links.
The
Pearl of The Black Sea:
I stand alone (contemplating the events to be unfolded over the next 6 days), as a whir of
bodies bustle around, searching, waiting, pondering.
Airline Magazines: In-Flight
Reading -- by Kay Bozich-Owens
Perhaps you haven’t given airline magazines much thought, but they do vary greatly,
and can have a positive effect (however slight) on your flight.
An Introduction to Travel: by Andrew De
Angelis
Travel used to be about discovering new and exciting places. It used to be about
discovering new people to talk to, new foods that send you screaming to the bathroom, and
new stories that regale your friends. Maybe now, it's more about discovering yourself.
Balad -- The Soul of Jeddah: by M. Ahmed
Nagoor
Travel back in time to the land of Arabian Nights.
Romance in New Hampshire’s White
Mountains: by Paul Pence
The morning sun seemed as lazy as we were, hiding behind mountain mist and a curtain of
clouds until well into the morning.
Travel on The Skeena: by Daryl T. Adair
For those who have described rail travel as a land cruise, day 2 of VIA Rail Canada’s
westbound Skeena certainly takes this description literally.
Florida's Cultural Coast -- Sarasota: by Norman
Goldman
For a town of its relatively small size, it is amazing how daring and dynamic is the
Sarasota’s cultural scene. You can probably attend a concert, or the theatre, every
day of the week.
Presqu'ile Provincial Park: by AP
Rodrigues
A birdwatcher’s paradise, a stop-over for Monarch butterflies on their way to Mexico,
a refuge for reptiles and a long, sandy beach. This may sound like a lush tropical island
in South America, but this naturalist’s dream can be visited without having to buy a
plane ticket if you live in Ontario, Canada.
Shikoku 88 Temple Pilgrimage: by Brooke
Schedneck
Walking from temple one to temple 88 and back again, along the coast of the 4th largest
island of Japan, was a test for the body as well as the mind. |
