Question about supermarket in Rome: Carrefour by Deliveroo Hop

Hi, I’m planning a trip to Germany for 2027, and I’d like to visit places with lots of history. I’m thinking of renting an Airbnb or something similar. Is it possible to travel around Germany by train? Can I cross into Austria without any complications, obviously with my passport? It’ll be a two-week trip roughly.

Thanks in advance for your tips—they’ll be much appreciated.

Hi, I’ll be in Barcelona at the end of October. I can choose to be there over the weekend or during the week. Probably 4 nights. Is there a big difference in terms of crowds in the city and in the museums?

Little or no difference would simplify my itinerary on the way.

Thanks

Hi everyone, We're heading to Madrid in November and looking for a centrally located hotel. I saw one on Calle de Alcalá. Does anyone know this street, or do you have other suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,

From January 1st to 4th, I’m heading to Barcelona for the first time. Beyond the tourist sites—which are going to cost me an arm and a leg!!—I’d love to spend a day off the beaten path and see some less touristy spots. What do you recommend? I’ll be getting around on foot, by metro, or possibly by train if it’s not too far. I love both nature and cultural spots. And one last thing—is Barcelona at night safe for a woman alone, or is it sketchy?

Thanks for your help! :)

Hi, We’d like to rent a small car (something like a Peugeot 208) when we arrive at Catania Airport. ... and we’d like to return it in Milazzo on a Sunday.

Could you recommend any rental companies for this kind of one-way rental—affordable and open on Sundays in Milazzo? Thanks in advance! Seb

Hello,

My husband and I are spending 10 days in Extremadura next May. We’d like to hike, see beautiful landscapes and nature, and enjoy the lively atmosphere of towns and villages, especially in the evenings. I was thinking of using 3 bases to explore the area: around Plasencia (to visit Monfragüe National Park, the Jerte Valley, etc.), around Guadalupe or Cáceres or Trujillo (though isn’t that quite close to Plasencia? We’d like to hike in the Villuercas Mountains), and finally the Montes de Toledo to ease our way back to Madrid (where we’re arriving and departing from). Could you help me decide on the 2 best home bases for northern Extremadura and then around Guadalupe? I don’t think we’ll go near Mérida. I’m not keen on spending hours in the car or on transport 😏

Thanks for your help!

Hello, We’ll be in York next week—one adult, a 17-year-old, and a 12-year-old. We’ll have a car. If you’ve got any fun activities (games, shows, etc.) or tips, we’re all ears!

Hi there,

We’re three adults planning a trip to Norway in May 2027. What do you recommend for the Lofoten Islands? We’d prefer to group the places to visit (flights, rental car...??).

Thanks!

Hi there, I’m heading to Lapland from November 12th to 19th. I know it’s not the best time for snow cover… so I’ve opted for Saariselkä since it’s further north. At this point, no activities—reindeer rides, snowmobiling, sledding, etc.—are available online yet, with just a few starting in early December. My question: if snow arrives in early November 🤞, will it be possible to book things on-site? I’m guessing there aren’t dozens of providers. Thanks for your feedback!

I'm probably going to spend a week in Naples, but I'd love to hear your thoughts! I've heard that the city is quite dangerous and crime-ridden? I've also heard that "Neapolitans" aren't very welcoming and have a bad temper? Is this true or just rumors?😊

After 3 nights in Naples, we want to visit the Amalfi Coast. Which town would be the best base?

Hi there, I’m looking for some great tips for a stay in Palma de Mallorca this summer. I need cheap flights departing from Toulouse and affordable accommodation for 4 people. What do you recommend? Best regards,

Hello fellow travelers

We’re heading to Norway for the first time as a couple for 8 days in December

I’m really torn about how much time to spend at each stop (and how many stops to make) We’d like to explore the cities, visit the Christmas market, see some beautiful landscapes, and if we have time, a stave church.

We arrive in Oslo on December 5th around 5 PM and leave from Bergen on December 12th around 11 AM.

Initially, we were thinking: Oslo from the 5th to the 8th Train to Bergen on the 8th, then stay until the 12th

But now we’d like to fit Flåm into the itinerary

Do you think it’s better to do: From the 5th to the 8th: Oslo On the 8th: train from Oslo to Flåm (arriving at 3 PM) On the 9th: a short fjord cruise, then the 2 PM train to Bergen (but then the Myrdal–Bergen stretch will be in the dark) From the 9th to the 12th: Bergen

Or should we adjust the number of nights in each place? Maybe shorten Oslo? Add a night in Flåm? Skip Flåm altogether? I’m not sure 😅

Thanks!

Hello, We’ve booked our flights to Tromsø from January 9th to 16th, 2027. Now it’s time to plan our stay, and I’ll admit I’m feeling a bit unsure... We definitely intend to rent a car, but what route should we take? Should we book accommodation for the entire stay (7 nights) in Tromsø and do day trips (Sommarøy, Kvaløya, Lyngen, a day in Tromsø, a boat excursion, and then... what else?)? Or spend 3–4 days in Tromsø and hit the road for another 3–4 days somewhere else—but where? I’d also considered splitting it: 3 days in Tromsø and 3 days in Målselv, so we could explore a different region by car and maybe try some downhill or cross-country skiing. Is this area interesting beyond skiing? During a recent trip to Lapland, we already tried dog sledding and snowmobiling, so we’re not planning to repeat those activities. Instead, we’d love to discover the landscapes and Sami culture. I’d love to hear about your experiences or suggestions to help us plan our trip. Thanks,

Hi everyone,

We're heading to Genoa and the Cinque Terre in mid-October for a full week. We're planning to spend two and a half days—three nights—in the Cinque Terre. The idea is to hike between the villages and use the train (or boat) for the trip out (or back). We're thinking of staying overnight, and I was wondering which village to prioritize.

Thanks in advance for your tips!

We’re in Vienna for two days. What are the main sites to visit? Thanks in advance

Hi there, after reading a well-known travel guide, it seems like there’s a lot to see and do in Valletta (I’m only talking about Valletta itself). That’s why I’m thinking of spending 2 days there. I don’t want to rush and would like to get a complete overview. However, I’ve noticed that some travelers only spend one day there. For those who know the city well, what do you think? (I’ve also planned the Three Cities for another day, by the way). Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

I’d love a nice spot by the sea in Andalusia in December

Hi, I’ve found my upcoming trip for February, and now I’m looking for a one-week getaway in April—somewhere not too far with generally nice weather. Any tips? Best,😉

Hi, who’s familiar with the Algarve? Lagos—should I go for a rental or a hotel? How do I get from the airport to the seaside, and how do I get around the city? What’s there to see and do? Thanks for your ideas and tips!

Hello, VoyageForum friends, and happy holidays! I’m planning a trip with my 19-year-old grandson to Milan for Easter Saturday, Sunday, and Monday in 2025. I’d love your insights on what we can visit in Milan that would interest both my grandson and me (I’m 75). Of course, I’m thinking of the must-sees, but not just those—cozy little restaurants, trendy neighborhoods, and anything else you’d recommend. I’m also looking for a comfortable hotel in the city center that isn’t too expensive!

I’m sure the VoyageForum community will help me uncover some hidden gems! Looking forward to your replies.

We’ve booked 5 days in Dublin and 5 days in Galway.

We’ll be traveling by train or bus.

What are the best places to visit in both cities to avoid repetition?

Hi there, 🙂

Summer 2027 is going to be Norwegian for us! We’re heading to the Lofoten Islands first, then Senja, near Tromsø, and finally the North Cape. We’ll likely start from northern Finland (flight tickets and car rentals are more affordable there).

I’d like to book accommodations early to have more options. Good value-for-money places go fast in these pricey Nordic destinations...

But where should we book?

We’re planning to stay around ten nights in the Lofoten Islands.

What’s the best approach?

One place in the central part and explore from there?

One place in the south and another in the center?

Or one in the south, one in the center, and one in the north (3-4-3 nights)?

Our main goal is hiking.

Thanks for your tips!😉

I'd love to organize a romantic weekend in Italy.

What do you recommend?

Hi there, my husband and I are planning a trip to Iceland in mid-October 2026. Would you have any advice on the best places to visit for a first trip to this destination? Thanks

Hey there, I’m heading to Tuscany in August for three weeks. Does anyone have any tips to share? Thanks in advance! Olivier

Hi, I'm heading to Italy soon and I wanted to know if Italian banks charge fees when you withdraw cash at an ATM, or if, like in Spain or Greece, it's better to avoid taking out money and bring cash instead. Looking forward to your replies... Thanks

Hello,

We’re planning a short trip at the end of July to explore the legendary mountains and valleys of the Bernese Oberland: round trip from Nancy (Swiss highway vignette planned), 2 nights in a room with a small kitchen in Adelboden, then 2 nights in a hotel at the Gletscherblick in Grindelwald, both with half-board included. Could you share some tips on the best road routes to take, as well as some walking hikes (we’re not as fit as we used to be, so nothing longer than 2-3 hours)? Maybe also 1 or 2 cable car rides—I was thinking of Oeschinensee Lake above Kandersteg and the First gondola above Grindelwald for better panoramic views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau... all while keeping it doable with our schedule. We’ve ruled out the "premium" trip up to the Jungfraujoch for this time. I’m also guessing that paying to access Wengen or Mürren only makes sense if we’re staying there for a few days, right? - Is the road through the narrow valley of the White Lütschine toward Lauterbrunnen and beyond still worth it in terms of views and scenery?

On the way back, if we have a little time to explore Bern’s historic old town, what’s the best parking plan for a 1- or 2-hour stop?

Thanks in advance for your advice, fellow travelers familiar with this beautiful region! 😉
