High-Speed Train Europe

March 5, 2020 by Devin Galaudet2 Comments

It has been 25 years since the last time I was backpacking through Europe. At the time I bounced through 18 countries with little more than clothes and a tattered Let’s Go guide for the better part of a year. Looking back, most of what I brought with me was easily replaced. Well, except for one thing. That was my Eurail Pass. I held onto it like glue and hopped on and off trains with abandon through 18 countries and had a life-altering … [Read more...]

Winter in Windsor

December 25, 2019 by Samantha Priestley2 Comments

We recently took a short wintry getaway in Windsor, home of the stunning 11th century Windsor Castle and famous for all things royal. But as we passed the large looming castle and the imposing statue of Queen Victoria, we decided to do Windsor differently. The fact is most tourists do visit for the castle, but if you’ve already taken a tour inside its fortress walls, it’s a bit beyond your budget, or the queues are just too much for you, … [Read more...]

Kirkby Lonsdale, The Dog Friendly Town

December 15, 2019 by Samantha PriestleyLeave a Comment

If you love historic English towns with stunning views, traditional inns, and a slow and leisurely pace, you’ll love Kirkby Lonsdale. If you love your dog as well, you’ll really love Kirkby Lonsdale! Kirkby Lonsdale is an historic market town in Cumbria, the north of England, and it is bursting with character. It’s quiet, it’s quaint, and it’s almost entirely dog friendly. We stayed at The Sun Inn, a 17th century inn with original features … [Read more...]

Aspen Meadows Resort a Dolce Resort: The World’s Best Biscotti Are In Aspen, Colorado

November 13, 2019 by Allison TibaldiLeave a Comment

I’m lucky enough to have lived in Tuscany for several years. During my time in the Chianti region, I consumed hundreds of biscotti made by professional bakers and family members alike. If you’re not familiar with these baked goods, you’re missing a delectable treat. In Italian, biscotti means twice-baked and they literally are twice-baked cookies. This biscuit originated in the Tuscan city of Prato but they are now popular all over Italy and far … [Read more...]

Sweet Treats In Omaha, Nebraska

August 24, 2019 by Allison Tibaldi2 Comments

Nebraska is the heart of cattle country, best known for its meat, not its sweets.  In Omaha, the sugar fairy has blessed the state’s largest city with a cluster of shops selling tempting confections that will make you forget all about the beef. Those in the know leave their diet at the state border. Old Market Candy Shop For a taste of yesteryear, Old Market Candy Shop sells mouth-watering treats. Try the chicken feet, pretzel rods dunked … [Read more...]

Top Private Tours in Paris

April 15, 2019 by DaveLeave a Comment

I first visited Paris 20 years ago when my brother and I were taking full advantage of our summer break from college to backpack around Europe for 2 months. This was our first independent trip together overseas and my first trip to Europe; Paris was our first stop. I remember being in awe of the giant monuments, the city's history and falling in love with all the museums and the city's rich history. I've been wanting to return to Paris for … [Read more...]

Philadelphia’s Long Heritage of Public Markets and Food Halls Continues Growing

February 27, 2019 by Steve MirskyLeave a Comment

When visiting a city for a few days even as a dedicated well researched traveler, it's difficult to cover all the can't-miss attractions let alone sample the wide crosscut of renowned food and beverage offerings. Markets and food halls provide a solution with an array of choices under one roof instead of visiting each establishment individually scattered across many neighborhoods. One of the first in the United States, Philadelphia's public … [Read more...]

From Los Angeles to Bogota – a Day Trip

January 19, 2019 by Abdul Rastagar2 Comments

Yup, you read the headline right. I made a day trip to Bogota, Colombia from Los Angeles, USA. I'm probably not the first one to do it, but I bet not many people have done it before. So how'd it happen? Mostly through my opportunism: I managed to squeeze in a stop in Bogota while on my way to Santiago, Chile. It wasn't really on my original plans but I had a choice of two flights - one with a 4-hour layover in Lima, Peru and one with a 16-hour … [Read more...]

Exploring Two Iconic Cities, New York and San Francisco

December 14, 2018 by Dave3 Comments

Located on opposite ends of the coast, both New York and San Francisco offer a rich variety of experiences and activities on but for different reasons. New York is an older city and certainly much larger often overwhelming for first time visitors which is why signing up for New York Tours is a good idea. They sell all new York attractions, Hop on Hop off Bus tickets, other activities and combination experiences. New York City offers great … [Read more...]
