10 days in the Canary Islands in January - which islands to choose?
by Juliette2015 · 2025-10-05 · 6 replies
Hi there, We’re planning to visit the Canary Islands for 10 days. We love hiking and nature in general, and beaches too, though they’re less of a priority. I’m thinking of spending 5 days in Tenerife, then heading to another island—I’m torn between Lanzarote and Palma. I just can’t decide. Thanks for your advice! Juliette

Car and accommodation for a week in Tenerife
by Ruboisé · 2025-08-30 · 3 replies
Hi everyone,

I’m planning a trip to Tenerife this winter and have already booked my flight. I’d love any tips to help me prepare. My wife and I are into hiking and exploring all the interesting spots—countryside, villages, and towns. We usually get around by bus, but renting a car in Tenerife seems like a good idea to reach different sites. I’d appreciate any info on car rentals and accommodations. Thanks so much!
Visiting the Faroe Islands in January
by Evelyne29 · 2025-08-30 · 2 replies
Hi, Has anyone ever tried the Faroe Islands in January? I know the weather won’t be great and the days will be short... but it’s tempting. I’d love to hear about your experiences. Thanks so much in advance!
Join me in discovering Gran Canaria
by Pinacoladada · 2025-07-14 · 182 replies
Introduction

We stayed on the island of Gran Canaria during the first three months of 2024. It’s the third Canary Island we’ve visited, after Tenerife and Lanzarote.

We rented an apartment in Temisas. By staying in the same place for such a long period, the total price dropped by 50%.

We also rented a vehicle to make getting around the island easier.

Why the Canary Islands, and Gran Canaria in particular? For its pleasant climate, the nature and diversity of its landscapes, the charming villages, and especially the beauty of its many beaches.

In this travel journal, you’ll find a list of the many activities we did during our stay to explore the different attractions of this island.

These attractions are categorized to make it easier to find what interests you.

Videos are included throughout the summary. Click on the image to start the video.

Which islands in the Balearics?
by Eveeve · 2025-03-15 · 4 replies
Hi there,

We're planning our next September vacation for 10 days. We're thinking of going to the Balearic Islands but we're torn between Mallorca, Menorca, and Ibiza. And most importantly, which areas should we avoid and which should we prioritize, for example in Mallorca? We want to steer clear of places that are too crowded and too urbanized, and we'll be getting around by rental car.

Is it possible to visit two islands in 10 days with a ferry transfer?

Thanks for your tips!
Which islands to visit in the Philippines in September?

Reliability of the bus network in La Gomera (Canary Islands)
by Tomtom67 · 2025-02-20 · 3 replies
Hello everyone,

We’re planning to spend 15 days in early May in La Gomera, solely for hiking and exploring the island. We like to take our time and not rush to see everything. We’ve booked small hostels or hotels, and our itinerary will be: San Sebastian -> Playa Santiago -> Valle Gran Rey -> Vallehermoso -> back to San Sebastian

We’re hesitating about renting a car—it would certainly give us more flexibility compared to buses, but it also comes with a budget and responsibilities (parking, getting back to the car after a hike, driving fatigue, distances, etc.). Since hiking is our main focus, the ROTHER guidebook shows mostly hikes that are accessible by bus. Is the bus network reliable? Is it restrictive to go without a car, with 2 or 3 nights in each location?

Thanks for your feedback—we can’t decide!

Best, Thomas
Which island(s) should we prioritize for 4 weeks in Indonesia?
by Tomlaure · 2025-02-12 · 41 replies
Hi everyone,

As part of a four-month world trip with our kids (ages 6, 12, and 13), we’ll be spending four weeks in Indonesia. Choosing destinations is so tough because everything is just so appealing! We’ll be spending some time on Java and will likely make a "quick trip" to Borneo for the orangutan reserve. We also want to experience Bali’s culture and the small islands of the Lesser Sundas, with their incredible marine life... but which ones should we prioritize? For a few days of diving and relaxation, do you think we should go for Nusa Penida, the Gili Islands, or Moyo Island? Is Sumbawa complicated to explore? Is it worth taking the time to visit? Can it be crossed by car to then reach Komodo National Park? Anyway, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Our goal is to avoid overly touristy spots (but not places that feel too unsafe with the kids), to discover local culture and villages, and to be amazed both underwater and above. Thanks so much for your help!
Tenerife or Rhodes in mid-April
by Secretgirl · 2025-02-02 · 13 replies
Hi everyone. I’m really torn between Tenerife and Rhodes for the week of April 12–19. I’m worried Rhodes might still be a bit chilly in mid-April, and I’m afraid there won’t be much to do in Tenerife?

I’d love to see beautiful sights—whether it’s towns or landscapes—but also lounge by the pool in shorts (or even a swimsuit if possible??). What do you recommend?

Will it be possible to swim in the pool at either (or both) of these destinations?

Thanks for your help!
Finding Faroese kronur and a SIM card in the Faroe Islands
by Tatra · 2025-02-01 · 4 replies
Hi there,

I’m coming with my little batch of questions, thinking it’s more sociable to ask here than my favorite AI.

1) In the Faroe Islands, you pay in Danish kroner—that’s clear—and mostly by card. But there are also Faroese kronur, and I’d love to bring some back. Are they available at ATMs? There don’t seem to be any real exchange bureaus in the capital.

2) The Faroe Islands aren’t part of the EU roaming agreement. Local SIM cards are supposedly available everywhere, but does anyone have an idea of prices or an operator to recommend?

Organizing shore excursions with the MSC Virtuosa
by RicDanMar25 · 2025-01-25 · 2 replies
Is it easy to disembark from the MSC Virtuosa and do an independent excursion on our own? Is the ship docked at the pier in the various ports like Pointe-à-Pitre, Antigua, St Kitts, Saint Martin, and the British Virgin Islands (Tortola)? Thanks for your feedback! Danielle
Layover Taxis in the Canary Islands
by Jany95 · 2025-01-01 · 5 replies
Hi there, We’re leaving Las Palmas on 13/01 for a cruise on the MSC Opera with stops in Fuerteventura, Funchal, Tenerife, Lanzarote, and La Palma. Has anyone taken taxis from these places to explore the islands, and how much should we budget to compare with the ship’s excursions? Can you negotiate the fare? Any drivers you’d recommend? Thanks for your tips 👍 and happy New Year 2025 😊😊
Camping in the Canary Islands

Which islands should we prioritize in the Philippines?
by Macphil3 · 2024-12-10 · 29 replies
We’re planning a month there, and there are definitely some beautiful—*very* beautiful—islands, but which ones to choose? Can you point me to the must-sees, the ones that are easiest to reach by boat, bus, or flight if it saves a ton of time and isn’t too expensive? Also, which island should we start our loop on, given we’re coming from Vietnam and our return flight to Paris is already booked out of Manila? Thanks in advance for all your tips. Philippe
Car rental in El Hierro (Canary Islands)
by Gibilou · 2024-12-04 · 2 replies
Hi, Does anyone know if there are several car rental agencies at the port of La Estaca when the ferries arrive? The only one I can find is CICAR, but they're relatively expensive. All the others with reasonable prices are at the airport. Thanks, Gilles
Car insurance validity in the Faroe Islands
by Froesch · 2024-11-27 · 3 replies
Hi,

I read on another forum that there might be an issue with insurance for our vehicles in the Faroe Islands.

Apparently, we wouldn’t be covered once we disembark from the ferry. From what I understand, the DK on our green card no longer applies to the Faroe Islands.

Could anyone confirm this?

Thanks
Solo stay at a club hotel in Tenerife
by Leonore44 · 2024-11-16 · 6 replies
Hi, I have a reservation for a solo stay at a club hotel on the island of Tenerife in the Canaries from 12/15/2024 to 12/22/2024. I was supposed to go with a couple of friends who know the island well, but they canceled their trip. Anyway, I’ve never traveled alone before, and I’m a bit nervous. What do you recommend to help me not feel isolated, make the most of my stay, and connect with other people? Thanks for your advice, Happy holiday plans to everyone! !

Breathtaking Faroe Islands
by Attila · 2024-11-07 · 3 replies
After watching the *Échappées Belles* episode on this spectacular chain of islands lost in the North Atlantic, we’ve been dreaming of going there. Why not summer 2023?

Since we love road trips for the way they let you really grasp distances, we’re choosing to travel by car and ferry.

It’s not exactly fast, but it’s a great way to see the countryside!

We’ll explore part of the archipelago starting from three bases—charming apartments we rented through a well-known platform...

Hiking, hiking, and more hiking.

Green, green, and more green.

Sunshine, wind, a few raindrops, and a pretty cool climate...

But most of all, a peaceful escape from the hustle of cities in a stunning landscape of cliffs and untouched nature.

You can find the details of our Nordic adventure here.

Happy reading!

And if you have any questions or comments, don’t hesitate to share!









Trip feedback from Fuerteventura
by Robertson73 · 2024-11-05 · 0 replies
During our stay in Lanzarote, we spent a few days in Fuerteventura. We particularly loved:

- The short hike up Volcán Calderon Hondo

- The center of the island, with a stop in Betancuria while driving along the stunning FV30 road

- The unmissable Cofete, a real end-of-the-world vibe. Everyone seems to get there at their own risk in a rental car, by the way.

- The Mirador de Sicasumbre is our favorite viewpoint on Fuerteventura

For the beaches, I’d say you can sum it up like this: the east coast is windy with calm waters, while the west coast is less windy but has big waves.

- East coast beaches: Sotavento and Corralejo - West coast beaches: La Pared and Cofete

No issues bringing our rental car from Lanzarote to Fuerteventura.

Dream Islands: Greece, French Polynesia, Mauritius...
by Herodotos · 2024-10-25 · 6 replies
Hello,

Who among us hasn’t dreamed of having a ticket to Tahiti, Bora Bora, or the Marquesas in their pocket—preferably a one-way ticket to “paradise”?

Idyllic landscape of a dream island, but difficult to access: the Bay of Virgins in Fatu Hiva, Marquesas Islands

Among the values conveyed by literature, tourism, and advertising is the quest for “elsewhere,” for a change of scenery, in the truest sense of the word—that is, the need to leave one’s country. This need for otherness, for difference, is projected onto dreamlike, idealized, even mythicized places. In our imaginary world, the island is often that place.

Yet we forget that islands have also been ideal prisons. The examples are numerous: Elba and Saint Helena, Alcatraz and Poulo Condor, If and Yeu, the Devil’s Islands and Leros. The latter, located in Greece in the Dodecanese, hosted a sinister forced labor camp during the colonels’ dictatorship as well as a psychiatric hospital. Despite the beauty of its bay, tourism has remained marginal there due to its bad reputation, unlike the neighboring island of Patmos.

I’d like to share a selection of about a dozen islands from across the world’s seas and oceans. For dreaming...

SANTORINI



July 27, 1967

At dawn, the ferry from Agios Nikolaos (Crete) enters the immense caldera of Santorini. From the ship’s deck, Rainer, my travel companion, and I are left in awe by the sight of these towering, multicolored cliffs looming over us. We disembark and begin the steep climb on foot via the winding mule path up to the village of Fira, the capital perched above the cliff. Though it’s still very early, we head to the youth hostel. There wasn’t a soul in the alleys that morning—or rather, there were only cats! I have a fond memory of that encounter with Santorini: a sensory shock, a breathtaking volcanic site, a harmony of blue, ochre-red, and white. A welcoming island, as it was traditional to welcome the xénou, an island that hadn’t yet fully recovered from the terrible 1956 earthquake, a Cycladic architectural marvel where local life was still preserved.

It’s easy to see why, in antiquity, the island was named Kallisté (καλλίστη), “the most beautiful,” as it’s nearly impossible to resist gazing at this landscape shaped by tectonic forces. Indeed, a massive volcanic cataclysm—the Minoan eruption—shaped this scenery in the 17th century BCE, creating a caldera that was quickly filled by the sea. The enormous tsunamis that followed reached Crete, leading to the disappearance of the Minoan civilization.

A cliffside path along the caldera leads us to the peaceful village of Oia, at the northern tip of the island. Blue-domed churches and flower-filled villages with whitewashed houses line the way. This walk is a continuous marvel, offering splendid views of the caldera and the neighboring islands formed by the breakup of the ancient volcano (Thirissa, Nea Kameni). Oia is a large, picturesque village, like Fira perched on the cliff’s edge, which was severely damaged by the 1956 earthquake, and its scars are still visible. Its cave-like houses with vaulted roofs haven’t yet been turned into luxury hotels or shops. Absolute tranquility reigns here.

Oia in 1967—a peaceful village overlooking the caldera. But where are the pools and trendy bars?

A lush countryside covered in olive trees and vineyards welcomes us for a pleasant hike, interrupted by the kindness of a friendly islander who gives us a lift in his truck for a few kilometers. He’s off to harvest his tomatoes, which he grows at the foot of Pyrgos Hill. The delicious little cherry tomato of Santorini earned an EU Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) in 2013. We climb up to the village of Pyrgos, perched on a hill and dominated by the elegant bell tower of its church. Finally, we reach the black sand beach of Kamari on the island’s eastern coast to enjoy a swim.

RAIVAVAE (French Polynesia)



November 15, 2007

Éléonore from Pension Tama welcomes us with traditional flower leis, as if she’d been waiting for old friends she hadn’t seen in ages. The small airport terminal is lively, the atmosphere warm—people hugging, rejoicing in reunions, all under kilos of flowers. Then, just as quickly, the place empties until the next flight... in a few days.



In the Austral Islands, a ninety-minute flight from Tahiti, Raivavae is a world away from the frenetic pace of Papeete or the tourist crowds of the Leeward Islands. The true paradise of the South Seas can still be savored here—it’s a bit like Bora Bora half a century ago. Our first feeling upon arriving on this island is wonder, with smiles that could melt even the gloomiest among us, landscapes so stunning they take your breath away, and above all, a sense of disorientation and fulfillment. Picture a mountainous island, about ten kilometers by three and a half, encircled by a coral reef and wild motu, cradling a lagoon with shades of blue that would make Bora Bora green with envy.

The roughly one thousand inhabitants of Raivavae are spread across four villages around the island. Children are everywhere, as is typical in Polynesia, and they greet you with open, genuine smiles. Here, ancestral values have survived progress. The predominantly Protestant population is very devout, as evidenced by the several temples built across the island. Religious fervor sets the rhythm of daily life. Sundays are reserved for worship and Sunday school (catechism). Work is forbidden on that day, and tourist activities are suspended. These rules are strict and respected.

Hat contest for the worship celebration

Yet a sense of resignation is ever-present. The people of Raivavae know they are—and will remain—isolated. Despite the construction of an airstrip in 2004 and a few weekly flights to Tahiti and its nearest neighbor, Tubuai (200 km away), the island remains on the fringes of the world. One painful aspect is the separation of children from their parents when they leave for middle school in Tubuai starting in fifth grade. Television brings daily images of a world the islanders will likely never know, but one they often aspire to.

We are privileged. We have the pristine white-sand beaches of the motu and some of the most beautiful bays in Polynesia all to ourselves. The jewel in the crown, the island’s emblematic spot, is the “motu-pool,” about twenty minutes by boat. A natural, exquisite basin with crystal-clear water, gradients of blue, and white sand. And best of all, there’s almost no one there. In fact, lounging on the beach is frowned upon, especially for young women. Religion looks very unfavorably on sunbathing and lazing around. And yet, everything here leans toward that philosophy of life.



The "motu-pool"

Cruise stops in the Cayman Islands, Jamaica, and Cozumel
by Poupina652 · 2024-10-13 · 2 replies
Hello,

We’ll be on a cruise in February 2025. Among our stops are Jamaica, the Cayman Islands, and Mexico. - We’d like to swim with dolphins but are torn between Jamaica and the Cayman Islands. Which would you recommend? - Does anyone have recommendations for French-speaking guides in either of these destinations? - In Mexico, we’re thinking of taking the Tulum excursion. Has anyone tried it? If so, is it worth it? On our last day, we arrive in Miami at 7 AM and our flight is at 6:25 PM. We’re considering the MSC excursion “Miami city tour: ends at the airport,” but I’d love to hear if anyone has done it. We’re wondering if there are stops during the bus tour of different neighborhoods or if it’s just a drive-by with the tour ending at Bayside Market before heading back to the airport. Thanks in advance

Voyage îles Eoliennes et ses volcans en octobre English translation pending
by Max68 · 2020-09-13 · 15 replies
Hello tous🙂,

Pour notre voyage d'octobre nous avons cherché une destination accessible facile pour nous et "motivante" (comme le Botswana est inaccessible pour le moment). Après avoir sillonné la Méditerranée et l'Atlantique nord nous avons jeté notre dévolu sur les îles Eoliennes avec comme fil conducteur les volcans.

En gros voici ce que cela pourrait donner, c'est un premier jet:

21/10 vol CDG - Catane puis transfert à Milazzo (Eolian, Eolnet) - nuit Milazzo, où

22/10 Ferry matinal vers Stromboli (6h ou 7h10) - ascension Stromboli fin de journée (Magmatrek) - nuit Stromboli, où ?

23/10 Suite visite Stromboli avec deuxième chance pour l'ascension si pas fait la veille - nuit Stromboli

24/10 Ferry Stromboli - Lipari (7h15 ou 10h15) - visite Lipari - location voiture ou vélo électrique - nuit Lipari où ?

25/10 Excursion Vulcano - horaire ferry ou navette ?

26/10 Ferry - Lipari - Milazzo - location de voiture et on se rapprocherait de l'Etna, où loger ?

27/0 Ascension Etna, Etna 3340 ou ??? - nuit Catane, où?

28/10 Vol à 10h pour la France

C'est serré, mais jouable ?

Est-ce que vous feriez Vulcano en excursion ou vaut-il mieux faire Lipari - Vulcano et dormir à Vulcano pour en repartir le lendemain pour Milazzo ?

Avez-vous un agence à recommander pour le Stromboli (ou c'est Magmatrek la mieux) ? Pareil pour l'ascension de l'Etna ? Lipari louer une voiture bonne idée ?

Comme c'est un plan B je n'ai pas pu faire autant de recherches que d'habitude je suis preneur de tous conseils ou avis.😛

Par avance merci🙂

Séjour de 5 mois aux îles Canaries English translation pending
by Mmlj · 2020-06-24 · 3 replies
Bonjour

Il y a 2 ans, nous avons séjourné 6 semaines à Ténérife et nous avons adoré.

Si Covid19 le permet, nous projetons retourner aux Canaries pour y séjourner 5 mois ( de novembre à avril ), et nous voulons diviser notre séjour sur 3 îles: Lanzarote, Fuerteventura et Gran Canaria.

Selon votre expérience, en termes de mois, comment devrions-nous diviser notre séjour par île?

Merci pour vos commentaires et suggestions
