Nous projetons d'aller en Chine en camping car avec nos 2 enfants de 5 et 12 ans.nous n'arrivons pas nous décider sur l'itinéraire turquie-iran-pakistan-inde ou russie-ouzbekistan-kirghizistan. Peut-t'on circuler en individel ss pb dans ces pays et en Chine ? Ca fait qq heures que je surfe mais ai du mal à avoir des infos ? Merci pour tous les tuyaus que je pourrais avoir.

bonjour à tous,

je souhaiterais partir en septambre prochain au népal pour un séjour 21 jours avec mon ami et aimerais quelques renseignements, conseils avisés... au vu de mon statut d'étudiante je peux obtenir des billets open pour kathmandu à 600 euros. Pour le reste, je n'ai absolument aucune idée de l'ordre de prix pour un séjour de cette durée. J'ai demandé un devis "aux portes de l'aventure", d'autres personnes seraient-elles parties avec cette agence ou auraient d'autres suggestions ? Je souhaiterais passer quelques jours à kathmandu (7 jours), puis faire du rafting (2 jours), du treeking (2 jours), un safari (5 jours) et enfin aller à lhassa (5 jours). Je suis ouverte à toute suggestions en espérant avoir des nouvelles très vite🙂

bonjour à tous je vais en Croatie au mois d'aout avec une location voiture . Alors si vous aviez des adresses d'hébergements sympas chez l'habitants ou petit hotel ce serait super de me les faire connaitre tous les autres renseignements sont les bienvenus A+ J'espère Nathalie

Salut à toutes et à tous,

Je voudrais avoir des infos sur l'agence Aéris (Switch/Partirpascher.com) qui propose des offres pour la Rép Dom vraiment à couper le souffle !!! Bon c'est sur internet !

Bref, Ce qui est indiqué sur l'offre (le site internet "partirpascher.com") correspond t-il exactement à la réalité ou y a t il des arnaques ? J'ai l'habitude de faire des voyages organisés par Club Med, est ce pareil?

Merci d'avance,

Ciao,

kamal.

Je pars au Tibet le 27/04/2003 via Kathmandou pour 4 semaines.J'aimerais savoir savoir si c'est mieux de prendre son visa chinois en France: il parait que les agences à Kathmandou annulent le visa chinois pour le transformer en visa collectif. Je vais faire le trajet Kathmandou-Lhassa par agence en groupe de 5, en 4x4 et l'agence que j'ai contacté me dit que le permis qu'ils me procurent est valable 15 jours (5 jours sur le trajet et 10 jours dans la région de Lhassa)Mais après Lhassa, je voudrais visiter la région de Tsethang et le Lhodrak pour revenir par Nakartsé et de là reprendre la route vers le Népal. Mais ce ne sera pas avec le même groupe puisque je le quitterai à Lhassa et il faudra donc que j'obtienne une prolongation de permis.D'autre part, il paraît qu'il faut attendre 7 jours à Kathmandou si on n'a pas déjà le visa et moi j'aimerais partir au bout de 3-4 jours maximum.qu'est-ce qui est le mieux??? Merci pour vos réponses et vos expériences.Laura.l

Salut à tous

Nous allons passer une douzaine de jours au CR en fevrier.Pourriez vous me faire parvenir toutes les infos pour réussir ce voyage ( location de voiture, bus, visites à priviligier ou à éviter etc....

Je vous en remercie par avance.

Is hitchhiking in Thailand a good idea? A bad one? Safe or not?

Instead of sharing my thoughts on the subject, I’ll tell you about my four short hitchhiking "adventures" over 40 years of traveling there. Hopefully, this will help you form your own opinion.

First, a general rule I always follow in Southeast Asia: whether you're a woman or a man, in the city or the countryside, if you're a foreigner—even in a small group—never let yourself get completely isolated once night falls.

Okay, here we go.

My first time:

This happened in the late 80s in Kanchanaburi province, on route 3272/4088, somewhere between the charming Thong Pha Phum and that spot on the Burmese border where a gas pipeline—owned at the time by a major French company—crosses. I don’t remember why or how I ended up on that remote road, but since I love getting lost, it was fine. Except that it was already mid-afternoon, no songthaew had shown up after an hour of waiting, and I wanted to get back to T.P. Phum before dark. So I started walking, keeping an ear out for any approaching engine to flag down (hand flat, palm down, waving as if saying goodbye). Soon after, a slightly upscale car stopped—a high-end Japanese model. Inside was a couple in their thirties. "You guys headin’ to Thong Pha Phum?" "Sure, no problem, my good farang, hop in." I was saved. We drove for 20-30 kilometers, then the guy pulled over: "Come on, let’s grab a drink..." Later, I’d learn we were near the spot where they were spending a short vacation, south of the reservoir stretching from T.P.P. to Sangkhlaburi—a place (that part of the lake) known for its waterfront resorts for couples, families (next stop...), and other Thais out for a good time (I’d stay there myself a weekend a few years later, in a dorm room with about thirty Thai friends). We had a drink. The woman barely sipped hers. We had a second. She didn’t say anything, but I could read in her eyes what she was thinking (no language barrier for that kind of communication). Then he ordered a third. She shot her husband a disapproving, embarrassed look. As for me, aware I was still far from "home" and that night was falling, I started pretending to drink too. You can guess the rest: the guy kept ordering, got drunker and drunker, and his wife didn’t dare scold him in front of me, but the looks she gave him—and her discomfort around the other people in the roadside joint—spoke volumes.

After a (very) long while, the woman couldn’t take it anymore and finally reminded him, I assume, that they still had to take me to T.P.P. But given his state, it was unanimously decided—by both of us—that there was no way he was driving. I felt stuck, especially since I don’t drive. And her? Oh, she could. I helped the guy as best I could, and the joint’s owner, taking pity on me, lent a hand. We got him into the back seat, where he fell asleep almost immediately. It was around 8 PM when, with her husband still snoring in the back, she dropped me off at the entrance of the guesthouse in Thong Pha Phum, near the market square. I thanked her, feeling a pang of sympathy for the moment she’d have to haul her husband from the car to their room. They drove off. I was hungry. At the far end of the market square was a great restaurant with a direct view of the Mae Nam Khwae. I headed that way.

Hi there, I’m planning a trip to Southeast Asia and would love to do a cruise on the Mekong. The thing is, I’m finding surprisingly little info on the topic—way less than I expected. Especially when it comes to prices, the few times I’ve managed to get a quote without doing a full booking simulation (and even then, I didn’t succeed), the costs seem way too high for me (500 €/night is way out of my budget).

Ideally, I’d love to travel the river cruise by cruise, country by country. 😇

But I’ve heard that even with an unlimited budget, it wouldn’t be possible—if only because of the dams in certain areas. And well, my budget is far from unlimited... 🤪

Cambodia? Yes, please. Laos? Yes, please. 🙂 500 €/day? No way. 🏴‍☠️

Has anyone here cruised the Mekong on a modest budget but with decent comfort (so you’re not counting the minutes until you dock...)? If so, which part of the river? 😐

Hello, We’re a group of four seventy-something retirees and we’re planning a 4-week trip to South Africa. We’re seasoned "adventurers" used to multi-week stays (we’ve been to India seven times, Mexico, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Australia, etc.).

For South Africa, we’re thinking of covering most of the trip in a private vehicle and taking flights for inter-state transfers. We’re interested in meeting people, learning about the country’s evolution, exploring major cities, visiting traditional villages, and seeing wildlife.

Here’s the itinerary we’re considering: Johannesburg – 2 days (we’ll pass through again later) Pretoria – 2 days Blyde River Canyon and Graskop – 1 day Acornhoek – 1 day Letaba – 2 days Lobamba – 2 days Johannesburg – 1 day

Flight to Cape Town

Cape Town – 3 days Cape of Good Hope – 1 day Stellenbosch – 1 day Hermanus – 1 day Mossel Bay – 2 days Oudtshoorn Wilderness – 2 days Knysna Port Elizabeth – 2 days Addo Elephant Park

Flight back to Johannesburg

Johannesburg – 1 day

Return to Paris

Could you share your thoughts on this itinerary? We’ll be renting a vehicle to explore both regions. We can easily add 4–5 more days to the trip if needed.

We’re looking at traveling either between April and May 2026 or in October/November 2026.

I’ll follow up later to discuss the best safari options and get a rough budget estimate.

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to read this and share their thoughts!

Hi everyone,

I’m planning a family road trip in the Peloponnese in April, arriving and departing from Athens, with a focus on Greek mythology, beautiful hikes, and a balanced pace (we don’t want to spend our days in the car). Here’s our draft itinerary:

Day 1: Early arrival in Athens – visit Acrocorinth and overnight in Corinth

Days 2 & 3: Drive to Dimitsana – hike in the Lousios Gorge (and maybe a detour to Olympia?), mountain villages

Days 4 & 5: Drive to Areopoli (Mani Peninsula) with a stop in Mystras

Day 6: Kalamata, visit Ancient Messene

Days 7 & 8: Pylos, Voidokilia Beach, Palace of Nestor, Gialova Lagoon

Days 9 & 10: Drive to Nafplio (Epidaurus, Mycenae)

Days 11 & 12: Hydra from the port of Ermioni

Days 12–15: Athens I’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions. Does the pace seem reasonable? Should we adjust any stops (too long or too short)? Any must-see mythological sites or hikes along the way, in addition to what I’ve mentioned? Is Olympia really worth the detour from Dimitsana?

Thanks so much for your valuable advice!

Hi there, Yesterday in the Thailand section, 100% of the new threads were just about beach destinations 😕... So here’s the counterattack in the form of this photo thread, dedicated solely to the countryside: the locals, their livestock, fields, farms, rice paddies, small rivers, and agricultural machinery. If you’ve got any pictures that fit these categories, feel free to add them! Comments welcome. For each photo, I’ll (or you can) indicate the area where it was taken.

So, my flight tickets have just been booked for a trip to Cambodia from November 4th to 27th, 2025. I’ll be traveling solo and want to explore this amazing country while getting a bit off the beaten path. I’m arriving in Phnom Penh and also departing from Phnom Penh. My goal is to travel as much as possible by bus and scooter. What itinerary would you recommend? What are the must-do things? I’m open to all tips and info. Thanks in advance for your help and responses.

Hi there,

We’d like to travel overland from Turkey to India in our converted van, but there are very few options these days. Crossing Iran seems risky and not particularly safe. Has anyone here done it? If so, which route did you take to minimize safety concerns?

Thanks for your replies, Julie 😎

Hi there, 🙂

I’m thinking of taking a trip to these two countries in 2026 (late spring to early summer).

I’d arrive in Almaty and leave from Bishkek, and I’d be driving myself.

I plan to spend 1 week in Kazakhstan and 2 in Kyrgyzstan. The itinerary isn’t set yet.

My preliminary questions are about formalities, hassle levels, and the car.

From what I understand, no visa is needed, the passport must be valid for 6 months after entry, and there’s no longer a requirement to register with the authorities at each stop. In short, once you’re in, no administrative headaches.

Except for permits needed to drive in certain regions?

---/---

About crossing between the two countries:

- On foot - In a rental car

Quick? Easy?

---/---

Are both countries safe? (Meaning you don’t have to stay on guard all the time.) Are the cops corrupt? (A little, a lot, passionately, not at all?)

---/---

Is it better to rent a car for both countries or rent a vehicle in each country?

A 4x4 or something else?

Is accommodation plentiful enough that I can skip a rooftop tent, or is it better to rent a 4x4 with one?

I’ll definitely have more questions later...😉

Thanks for your answers !

Our trip lasted a month, from March 10 to April 10, 2024, and was done aboard our Land Rover Defender 110. For those interested, our 4x4 is equipped with mountain-approved 3PMFSF all-terrain tires (non-studded), a removable electric winch that can be attached to either the front or rear of the vehicle, two sand recovery boards, and we bring two pairs of snow chains. We sleep in our Land Rover, which is equipped with a diesel-powered independent heater, a small fridge, and has a layout that allows the dinette to be converted into a bed.

Starting from the Paris region, we crossed Belgium and Germany, took the ferry from Travemünde in northern Germany to Helsinki, followed the Russian border up to northern Finland, then headed into Norway all the way to the North Cape before returning via Norway, taking the ferry from Larvik in Norway to Hirtshals in Denmark, then passing through Germany and Belgium on our way back to France.

Tonight, March 10, 2024, we’ll be sleeping at our daughter’s place in the North.

Tuesday, March 11, we’ll cross Belgium and then enter Germany, where we’ll camp in Bremen.

Wednesday, March 12, we’ll have a quick visit to Bremen in the morning. We had planned to visit Lübeck, but some electrical issues with the car delayed us, so we head straight to the German port of Travemünde, where we’re set to embark at 11:30 PM to cross the Baltic Sea and arrive in Helsinki after 31 hours of sailing (one-way cabin ticket cost: 850 €—quite expensive since we booked last minute).

On the ferry, there are mostly semi-trucks and only a few campervans and passenger cars. The boat is quiet, and the Baltic Sea is calm.

About two hours before arriving in Helsinki, we hear noise along the hull. Surprise—looking out the porthole, we realize we’re sailing on frozen sea ice!

Thursday, March 14, we arrive at the port of Helsinki at 9:30 AM. Disembarking takes a while. As soon as we’re out, we head straight to Rastila Camping (cost: 27 €), about ten kilometers east of Helsinki. Then we go to a Land Rover garage to fix our headlight switch, which stopped working (a real hassle in Finland since you have to drive with low beams on at all times).

After the repair, we visit the stunning Temppeliaukio Church, which is built underground.

On our way back to the campsite, we stop at the supermarket for supplies. Prices are similar to France, except for imported products.

We settle into our snowy campsite spot.

We're planning a round-the-world trip in a 4x4 with a roof tent and all the gear. We're wondering which African country allows tourists to buy a vehicle (left-hand drive)? Thanks for any tips—they’ll be super helpful!

Hi there,

We’re heading to Southeast Asia for several months as a family with two teens (10 and 13). The first country we’re visiting is Cambodia. I’m having an issue with the e-visa—it won’t accept any of the documents I’m attaching. I’ve validated all four e-visas and received the registration numbers, but when I check the application, it shows no attachments. I’ve tried multiple times in different formats (PDF, JPEG, PNG), whether compressed or not, but there’s always a red cross next to the documents.

Has anyone else run into this problem?

Thanks for your help—I’m losing patience, and our departure is in 15 DAYS 😕

Hi there,

I’m planning a month-long trip that’ll take me from San Francisco to Seattle, stopping in Vancouver BC along the way. After tweaking this route every which way and trying to balance must-see spots with more relaxed stops (like the Oregon coast), I’ve landed on this itinerary—I’d love your thoughts!

Days 1 and 2: San Francisco Days 3 and 4: Lassen Volcanic Park Days 5 and 6: Crater Lake Days 7 to 9: Portland Day 10: Astoria or Cannon Beach Day 11: Ruby Beach or Forks (for the Hoh Rain Forest) Days 12 and 13: Port Angeles (for Hurricane Ridge) Day 14: Victoria (Vancouver Island) Days 15 to 17: Ucluelet (Vancouver Island) Days 18 to 20: Vancouver BC Days 21 and 22: North Cascades NP Days 23 to 25: Mt. Rainier Days 26 to 28: Seattle

Of course, there’s travel time built in—for example, the third day on Vancouver Island will mostly be eaten up by getting back to the mainland and Vancouver.

Do you think there are any extra stops or anything I’ve missed? A month feels like a lot and not a lot at the same time… Thanks!

Hi there, I’m finally planning to spend 9 days/9 nights in Chiang Rai. What’s the best area to stay in? Do you know any interesting spots within a 50–60 km radius? Preferably ones that aren’t overrun by mass tourism (sorry about that). Thanks! Joël—I’m reading your latest travel journal on this region...😉

Thursday, November 2, 2023 Lake Argyle – Katherine

We had a great time. Now we’ve got to pay the price. We’re down one stop before Katherine. Gotta do the whole trip in one go—6 hours of driving. Let’s go! We’re a bit low on fuel with only 300 kilometers of range. The only station at the lake doesn’t open until 9 a.m., and the next (and only) one is 227 kilometers away… Should we risk it? Except for a magnificent frilled-neck lizard darting across the road on its big hind legs and an emu quickly disappearing into the bush, we didn’t see much. Oh—there was also a donkey, lost and panicked in the middle of the road… A quiet road with some beautiful scenery, some worrying bushfires

and a few opportunities to stop for a "warrior’s rest" (never go beyond the first second of the thought that starts drifting off the road…) We cross an invisible border as we enter the Northern Territory, which comes with consequences—we immediately lose an hour and a half by changing time zones. The speed limit goes from 110 to 130.

We arrive at the self check-in in Katherine. As usual, we’re a little taken aback at first. The noise, for starters. There’s a group rehearsing, it seems. We go check it out. We pass through the doors separating "The Stuart" from the adjoining bar and stumble upon what feels like collective hysteria. Turns out, it’s a concert. Aboriginal musicians completely fired up by some incredible music! There are just three of them, but they’re delivering a wall of sound that reminds us of South Africa’s finest neo-techno with a trance-like vibe. The crowd is wild! They’re singing in unison, screaming with joy. We get gently kicked out by security because we’re carrying our groceries, and they’re not having it. We promise ourselves we’ll come back once we’ve put them away in our little fridge.

Then we land. We end up finding plenty of nice things. It’s very possible we’ll like this place!

We head back to enjoy our post-battle Happy Hour. The concert’s over, but the crowd’s still riding the high. It’s indescribable. People are shouting across the room, screaming just for the fun of it—men and women alike. There’s pool, some beat-up arcade games being shaken like coconut trees. Dom and I feel like anthropologists. We’re pretty blown away. It’s epic! And the beer’s half the price it is elsewhere! We’ll definitely be back—that’s for sure!

We give up on finding a restaurant. Not sure they even exist, at least not this season. So, we’ve got a microwave—we eat at home on our little terrace, with a musical accompaniment from a massive orchestra of birds. It sounds amazing!

Bonjour à tous,

D'ici quelques mois je compte partir voyager en Afrique de l'Est en commençant par l'Ouganda. Je pense plutôt aller me perdre sur des petites routes, dans les campagnes et les villages mais je ne sais absolument pas s'il est facile de trouver des hébergements dans ces endroits. J'hésite à embarquer une tente au cas où je ne trouve aucun endroit où dormir. Pensez-vous que ça vaut la peine ? J'aimerai beaucoup faire ce voyage en moto. Savez-vous s'il est facile d'en acheter une ? La police n'est pas trop emmerdante sur ça lorsqu'elle croise des étrangers ?

Merci d'avance pour vos réponses.

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?

merci à tous de votre aide.

Bonjour,

En fin de préparation pour un voyage cet été avec nos 2 petits en croatie (départ en voiture de Lyon), j'aurais aimé soumettre notre idée de voyage aux experts (et pas que) de ce forum :

Départ le 14/08 à l'aube de Lyon --> N1 vers Vérone en Italie

15/08 trajet Vérone --> Croatie N2/3 à Funtana vers Rovinj Visite de cette Cote ouest de l'istrie (Novingrad, Roving, Porec) Nous hésitions avec Pula mais rien d’excitant d'après les commentaires que nous avons vu passer

17/08 trajet Funtana --> Labin N4/5 Visite de la cote Est de l'Istrie (Rabaj , Duga Luka)

On est preneur de vos idées de visite en istrie surtout en intérieur des terres. Le parc de Brijuni est il digne d'interet ?

19/08 trajet Labin --> Plitvice N6 Un classique avec la visite du parc. J'ai lu qu'il était plus intéressante de faire une randonnée de 4h que de faire la rando d'1h pour voir les chutes. Est ce gérable en plein été avec des petits même en venant à l'ouverture ?

20/08 trajet Plitvice --> Split N7/8/9/10 Visite Split, Trogir, Omis, Krka 1 journée sur l'ile de Brac en voiture Nous avons choisi Brac car c est la plus pret pour faire un aller/retour dans la journée mais cela a t il un sens. certaines iles sont elles plus sympa ?

24/08 Trajet Split --> Zadar N11/12 Visite Zadar, Sibenik, Primosten. Est ce sympa d'aller sur l ile de Dugi Otok en Journée sans la voiture ou faut il etre véhiculé ?

26/08 Trajet Retour Vers Lyon avec une nuit vers Trevise pour Couper

Nous sommes preneur de vos avis et commentaires éventuels pour les excursions à faire proches de nos lieux de villégiature ou si notre roadtrip n'a pas bcp de sens pour vous. Aussi avec l'actualité COVID19, si l'italie est amenée à fermer ses frontières, un trajet par la suisse est il réaliste ?

Merci pour votre aide et bonne journée à tous.

Bonjour à toutes/tous !

Je me permets ce message pour avoir votre avis sur le fait de partir cet été au Rwanda, car oui, comme vous le savez, la destination fait partie des quelques rares pays ouverts au français pour cette période estivale.

De ce que j’ai lu, les voyageurs seront donc testés avant le départ, et avant chaque entrée en parc national, ce qui est bien entendu une très bonne chose.

Cependant, bien que cela fasse de nombreuses années que je souhaite partir au Rwanda, j’ai quelques craintes, malgré cette volonté locale de relancer le tourisme :

Pourrai-je prendre les transports locaux ? (compte tenu de la question des masques, proximité avec les gens, etc.), même si je prendrai des fois des taxis ; L’ensemble des commerces/restaurants, et autres seront-ils ouverts ? (plus du tout de confinement sur place ?), car l’idée étant d’apprécier la vie locale, j’espère ne pas me retrouver dans un désert urbain… 3 semaines au Rwanda, cela n’est-il pas trop ? en même temps, vu que je n’ai pas envie de courir… Des idées d’itinéraires « hors des sentiers battus » ? Possible de loger chez l’habitant, éco-tourisme etc. ? Je voyagerai seul, et n’ai qu’une maigre idée du coût de la vie… auriez-vous une fourchette de prix pour 3 semaines en solo sans se priver ? Y-at-il selon vous des choses particulières que je devrais savoir, en lien avec la période « Covid » actuelle ?

Enfin, d’autres personnes parmi vous comptent-elles partir au Rwanda cet été ? Espérant avoir quelques retours sur le sujet dans les prochains jours… Bonne journée à vous, et merci !

Bonjour les amis de la Grèce de Parga et régions.

Vos connaissances sur Parga et régions m'enthousiasment ! Je pense aux à Papito93, Tuture, ...

Aussi je me permets de vous demander conseils... C'est pour mes prochaines 2 semaines debut Septembre, 5 personnes.

1/ Nous atterrissons à Corfou à minuit. D'après certains posts, on peut sans regret zapper Corfou. Je pense donc me rendre dans la région d'autour de Parga dès le lendemain. J'ai bien fait de zapper Corfou ?

2/ Pour 2 semaines donc autour de Parga et régions, Je voudrais savoir où stratégiquement se loger pour apprécier les beautés de cette région ( ballade, randonnées légères, baignade, ). Je serai mobile ( voiture location + logement AirBnb ), ainsi vous pouvez me suggérer 2 ou même 3 changement de lieu de logement si nécessaires ? Pouvez vous également me quantifier le nombre de jours à rester sur chaque lieu ? Et les endroits à visiter du lieu ?

Merci d'avance pour votre science de Parga et régions ( Epire je crois ) !
