Hi everyone,
We're currently planning our itinerary for this summer (late July - August) in China. Our travel style is more backpacker-oriented—we're used to traveling in Latin America, booking things just 3 days in advance. Could you share your thoughts on this route?
We’re particularly wondering about: - Yangshuo (which seems very touristy) → Xingping instead? The park Bajiaozhai? - How to get around and find accommodation in the small Miao and Dong villages? - Should we book trains and hotels in advance for late July and early August?
Thanks so much!

What to see in 4 days in South Korea?
We only have 4 days to visit South Korea and we’re landing in Seoul. Is it better to focus on Seoul, or would it be possible to go as far as Gyeongju, stopping by Songnisan National Park to visit Beopjusa Temple, then heading to Gyeongju to see Bulguksa Temple and Seokguram Grotto, and keeping 2 days for Seoul? Is this doable? We’d need someone to drive us there.
Tips for visiting national parks, transport, and accommodation in Kenya
Hello,
We’re heading to Kenya from July 14 to August 3, 2025. We’ve swapped our house to get our first base in Nairobi.
I’d like to know if the Severin Safari Camp is well located relative to the entrance of Tsavo National Park? From what I’ve read in another discussion, it’s better to hire a driver (rather than renting a car)?
Same question for Maasai Simba Camp?
And finally, what do you recommend for the Masai Mara: how many days should we plan? Any accommodation tips?
Thanks so much in advance.

Where to find gachapons in Korea?
Hi there,
I know gachapons are more of a Japanese thing, but I think it’s possible to find them in Korea too.
Would you happen to know any spots in Seoul or Busan?
I heard there’s a Bandai corner at the Korea Hotel Lotte Lotte World. But do you need to buy a ticket for the amusement park to access it?
Thanks in advance for any tips!

Your thoughts on a trip to Croatia
Hi there,
We were planning to spend a month in June exploring Croatia (Istria for 1 week, Plitvice Park, Zadar, Split, the islands, Dubrovnik…) and Montenegro, and we’ve already made good progress on our plans. But after reading the forum, we got a bit worried—there are so many negative reviews. Apparently, tourism has exploded, and Croatians are getting more and more fed up (which we totally get), becoming aggressive and disrespectful. The euro has sent prices skyrocketing, and scams of all kinds are popping up—even car vandalism is being mentioned!!
Here’s what we had in mind: Day 1: Our trip was supposed to start from Nice by car, with a stop in Verona to arrive in Croatia the next day. Days 2–6: First possible detour to visit Postojna Cave in Slovenia (or later from Rijeka... but I’ve heard border crossings can be super long!!!) and a 5-night stay in Rovinj (visiting Rovinj, Bale, Poreč, Grožnjan, and other small villages, Pula, maybe Cape Kamenjak, relaxing on beaches, possibly Cres Island). - Days 7–8: Head toward Rijeka and Plitvice Lakes National Park via the coastal road; 2 nights outside the park (given the prices!!!) and visit the park the next day. Do we need to book park entry way in advance for June? - Days 9–11 or 12: Leave for Zadar for 4 nights—one island (Dugi Otok, Pašman Island, Kornati Islands National Park, Silba, Molat, Olib, Premuda, Sakarun Bay, Veli Žal Beach, Iž Island, Ugljan Island), explore the city, and check out the surroundings. - Days 13–15: Head to Split, visit Šibenik, Split, and Trogir. - Days 16–17: Hvar Island. - Days 18–21 or 22: Head to Dubrovnik, explore the city, cross over to Korčula, Prapatno port at the start of the Pelješac Peninsula, via Ston, Mljet Island (Konavle and Cavtat port?).
- Then return to Split to catch the ferry to Ancona or head to Montenegro for 5–7 days.
If you’ve visited Croatia since 2023 (when it joined the Schengen Zone), we’d love to hear your thoughts on traveling there in June. Françoise

How to get to Coiba and Escudo de Veraguas (prices, route, etc.)
Hi there, we're heading to Panama.
We're looking for up-to-date info on day trips to: 1-Coiba (from Santa Catalina). I’ve seen prices like: $65 per person + 20 € for the national park entrance, and also a "package" price of $225... Has anyone got recent info? Are these prices to be shared, or is it really a minimum of 85 € per person (even for a 6-year-old kid)?
2-Escudo de Veraguas From Bocas del Toro, I’ve seen prices around 150 € with a 2-hour lancha ride. Or from Calovébora (no info on price or trip duration).
Has anyone been to this island recently and have any up-to-date tips?

Border formalities at Beitbridge (Zimbabwe)

We’re self-drivers planning a trip through Zimbabwe in 2026—our route is Johannesburg, Zimbabwe, Mozambique.
We’ll have a rented 4x4.
We’d like to know about any difficulties at the borders between South Africa and Zimbabwe, and between Zimbabwe and Mozambique.
Also, which park in Zimbabwe is the best?
Thanks in advance for your replies!

Renting a car across multiple islands in Indonesia
Hi everyone,
When we travel abroad, we usually rent a car to be independent with our itinerary and free with our timing. But we get the feeling that it’s not so simple in Indonesia.
Is it feasible, for example, to drive from Bali to Komodo National Park by car? What are the roads like? Can you rent and return cars on these smaller islands?
Thanks for your replies.
First trip to South Africa: what itinerary?
Hello forum,
We’re a family of 4 adults (2 grown daughters) planning our first trip to South Africa for 3 weeks in August 2025, traveling independently. I’ve been drawing inspiration from several posts on the forum. I’d like to book our flight tickets and nights in Kruger Park as soon as possible since that’s the most urgent part to finalize, if I understood correctly.
Here’s a first draft of our itinerary (with lots of unknowns about what there’ll be to see/do in Eswatini, Lesotho, Durban, etc.—I feel like the Lesotho leg involves a lot of driving).
I’d really appreciate input from the experts to help us craft a great trip. Thanks in advance!

Price of a car with driver in Chiang Mai in 2025
Hi,
I’d been told it was between 2,000 and 2,500 THB per day. 3,000 THB for Doi Inthanon...
The driver I found gave me different prices depending on my destinations: 5,000 THB for the waterfalls in Doi Inthanon National Park, which I negotiated down to 4,000. Then 2,000 for Lamphun, 3,000 for another day, and two times 3,500 for two other itineraries I showed him. In total, 16,000 THB, which I negotiated down to 14,000.
I’m wondering if I overpaid...
Since I’m planning two more outings, I’d like to have a solid baseline for negotiating...
I’m right in the middle of peak season, and everything’s gone up considerably in Thailand. So I don’t want to put my foot in it by pointing out he might’ve overcharged me if that’s not the case... Thanks

Baobab forests in Senegal: which ones to visit?
Hello,
In late February, a small group of us who are passionate about botany would like to walk through a baobab forest. However, we’ve read that more and more baobab forests in Senegal have been declassified. Which forests (aside from the treetop adventure park) are still the most interesting to visit?
Is it still possible to see landscapes of baobabs (not just one or two isolated trees)?
Thank you, and have a great evening! Christophe

Hiking fees in national parks in South Africa
Hi! In March, we’ll be spending two weeks in the Drakensberg region and Golden Highlands National Park (Clarens). From what I understand, you have to pay to hike if you're in a national park. I can’t find the rates or info on whether there are multi-day passes if we hike for several days. Could you help me out, please?
Thanks
Road trip ideas between Seattle and Mount Rushmore
hi, I'm looking for itinerary ideas starting and ending in Seattle. Of course, I'd like to see at least Yellowstone Park, Mount Rushmore, Devil’s Tower, the town of Cody for a rodeo, and the bison...
If anyone has any suggestions—without taking the same route twice, of course—I’d love to hear them!
Best regards,

Review Request - 19-Day Quebec Road Trip
We’ve got our tickets—we’re leaving from August 5th to the 24th!
We’ve got a few hesitations about our itinerary, so we’re here to ask for tips and feedback. This forum has been a huge help for other trips.
Here’s our draft plan:
3 days - Montreal 2 or 3 days in Mauricie 3 days in Quebec City, including one day for Jacques-Cartier Park 2 days in Charlevoix 3 days in Saguenay Fjord 2 days in Tadoussac 2 days in Bas-Saint-Laurent 1 day to return to Montreal—our flight leaves at 11 PM
Maybe we’re being too ambitious? Should we cut some stops? We’d still like to avoid driving too much in one go this year. Thanks for your suggestions! Artlou

The Peace Museum in Hiroshima
Summary of my article: Visiting the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum
This museum is a deeply moving place that left a profound impact on us. Located in the heart of Peace Park, it doesn’t just recount history—it invites reflection on the consequences of war and the importance of preserving peace.
Through poignant exhibits, multimedia testimonies, and striking artifacts like the tricycle of a child victim or the fossilized shadows, you grasp the full scale of the tragedy. Peace Park, with its iconic monuments such as the Genbaku Dome, the Cenotaph, and the Flame of Peace, extends this reflection in a solemn setting.
In an article I wrote on the topic, I also explain how to organize your visit: transportation options, recommended routes through the park, and accommodations to fit every budget. And if you have extra time, I suggest exploring other must-see sites in Hiroshima, like the castle or Miyajima Island, to round out your stay.
This is a place that moved and inspired us, and I hope my article will encourage you to discover it for yourself while carrying a message of remembrance and peace.

17-day itinerary: Québec, Gaspésie, and Saguenay
Hi there,
We’re heading to Québec from July 7 to 24, 2025, and we’d love some advice on our itinerary.

Prices for visiting Perito Moreno Glacier (or another) in El Calafate
Hi there, we’re spending 2 full days in El Calafate and we’d like to visit Perito Moreno. The prices through agencies are sky-high, so I’m trying to figure out why by looking at the cost of the bus separately, park entry separately, and the boat separately. I’m still way off the total amount. From reading several blogs, it seems like we could do it ourselves by renting a car. What do you think?
After that, we saw that we could also visit other glaciers, but the agency prices for those are even more expensive. However, in this case, I don’t know if we can do it on our own...

Agence de trek à Katmandou qui s'occupe juste des formalités administratives: possible ou pas? English translation pending
Bonjour. Je voudrais savoir s'il existe à Katmandou des agences ou intermédiaires qui peuvent s'occuper à l'avance moyennant commission, des formalités pour le permis TIMS, le permis d'accès à un parc national, la réservation du transport (jeep privée) voire les trajets aeroport-hôtel mais sans guide, porteur et encadrement du trek (le trek se fera en autonomie). Je veux juste savoir si ça existe et si oui à qui je peux m'adresser. L'idée est d'éviter d'effectuer soi-même ces formalités le premier jour après 13h d'avion. Vos retours d'expérience dans ce domaine sont les bienvenus. Merci d'avance !
Recherche guide pour visite en voiture du sud de l'île Maurice English translation pending
Bonjour à tous,
n'ayant pas trouvé ce qui me concernait dans le forum, je me permets de vous solliciter pour savoir si quelqu'un pourrait me recommander un guide sympa pour une visite du sud de l'ile , en voiture, avec découverte du Parc des georges de la rivière Noire, Grand bassin, Chamarel, les terres aux 7 couleurs et autres pépites, pour mon mari et moi, la dernière semaine d'octobre.Mais , je recherche un guide local , qui ne nous prendra pas pour des "pigeons" mais privilégiera la découverte des lieux authentiques de cette ile. Quelqu'un a-t-il eu la chance de connaitre ce type de personne et pourrait-il nous en faire profiter?

Le gouvernement grec vient d'inaugurer au large de l'île d'Alonissos le "Parthénon des épaves" qui est une épave garnie d'amphores datant du Ve siècle avant J.C. Quatre autres sites de visite sous-marine d'épaves, ainsi qu'un parc d'attractions pour plongeurs, sont également prévus à terme dans le pays.

Parcours H aux lacs de Plitvice depuis l'entrée 1 (Croatie) English translation pending
Bonjour,
Je pars tres bientôt en Croatie pour visiter le lac de plitvice et en me renseignant, le parcours h serait le meilleur compromis. Mais accessible par l'entrée 2.
Mais le problème c'est que la navette que j'ai trouvé au départ de zadar s'arrête a l'entrée 1.
Quelqu'un sait si une fois entré dans le parc, on peut rejoindre facilement et rapidement l'entrée 2 depuis l'entrée 1? Merci.
Balade dans les Pyrénées centrales English translation pending
Bonjour,
En Septembre, quand les "travailleurs" auront repris le boulot, je pars marcher dans les Pyrénées centrales (que je ne connais pas du tout) : l'idée est de partir de Cauterets (Parc National des Pyrénées), de passer par Gavarnie bien sûr et de terminer par le Pic du Midi de Bigorre, après avoir fait une boucle par les lacs (Aumar, l'Oule, Gréziolles). J'ai prévu hébergement et restauration en refuges ou gîtes d'étape, pique-niques pour les repas de midi. Suite aux recherches que j'ai faites, j'évalue la durée de la "balade" à 10 jours en étapes de 4 à 7h.
Mes questions aux connaisseurs du terrain :
- Compte tenu du relief de la zone, prévoir 10 jours pour faire cette rando vous semble-t-il "raisonnable" ? (70 ans, bonne condition physique, j'ai l'habitude de marcher mais plutôt en moyenne montagne).
- Un endroit du trajet me préoccupe : la Hourquette d'Ossoue (2734m) ; j'ai lu qu'on pouvait y trouver de la neige, même en été... qu'en est-il vraiment ?
- Pour le reste du parcours, est-il praticable avec de bonnes chaussures (type Timberland) jusque fin Septembre ?
Une proposition :
- S'il y a des randonneurs (euses) isolé(e)s (comme moi) qui aimeraient faire la "balade", qu'ils me fassent signe : je suis prêt à modifier, diminuer ou rallonger mon projet initial sans problème. Simplement, il faut faire vite : en naviguant sur les sites des refuges, je me suis rendu compte que début Septembre commence déjà à se remplir !
Merci d'avance aux Pyrénéistes !
Bonnes balades à Tous après ces mois difficiles.
Pierre.
