Hommage à Stockholm English translation pending
Extrait de mes carnets de route suédois ...
Mardi 8 avril 2003, 01.31. Tant à écrire aujourd’hui. Et puis, encore un long chapitre à écrire …
Stockholm …
Hmmmm. Qu’elle est belle cette ville. Belle belle belle belle belle. Magique, attirante, multiple, déconcertante … Avec cette impression heureuse de te connaître un peu … hmmmm, magique.
Pour un peu te cerner, pour un peu te comprendre, il faut marcher … Ne pas hésiter à accumuler les kilomètres. Passer et repasser dans les mêmes rues, dans tous les sens, à toutes les heures, de toutes les humeurs, en toutes les couleurs. Parce que chaque nouveau passage est nouvelle découverte. Parce que chaque nouveau regard est source d’émerveillement.
Il y a d’abord cette eau … omniprésente et tellement en accord avec tes rues, tes gens, tes battements. Cette eau qui te magnifie et te fait rayonner. Le plaisir de passer d’une île à l’autre, à pied ou à bateau. Le plaisir d’atteindre le bout d’une presque île pour jeter un oeil sur la suivante. Le plaisir de regarder le vent animer ton sang, lui insuffler vie.
Il y a ton noyau, ton centre, ton coeur … Gamla Stan … ta vieille ville. Et ses dizaines de ruelles et ses maisons aux couleurs chatoyantes, toute mignonnes. Adorable. Si chaleureuse aussi. A se lancer le tacite défi de la parcourir chaque fois par un nouveau détour, par un nouveau trajet, par de nouvelles découvertes, on a pu pénétrer au plus profond de tes entrailles. Et puis ces visions magiques sur Gamla Stan depuis les îles adjacentes. Et puis ces marches à l’ouest de Gamla Stan et ce muret au bord de l’eau … lieu privilégié pour admirer un coucher de soleil.
Il y a tes jolis bâtiments. Stadshuset, ton hôtel de ville, au bord de l’eau. De loin pas trop joli, si ce n’est ses trois couronnes dorées qui brillent en haut de son toit. Trois couronnes pour trois rois mages. Ou trois couronnes pour Suède – Norvège – Danemark. De près, magnifique. Sa cour intérieure d’abord, puis son intérieur. C’est dans sa salle gigantesque que se tient chaque année la séance d’attribution des prix nobels. Mille trois cents convives participent alors au faste banquet donné à cette occasion. Sa salle dorée aussi. Son escalier imposant. Une interprétation de l’histoire de Saint Georges et du dragon. Saint Georges est la Suède, le dragon le Danemark …
Storkyrkan, ta cathédrale, petit bijou. On peut y admirer une sculpture en bois de Saint Georges et du dragon. On s’y sent bien. Les églises ont en Suède tout ce qu’il manque à nos églises belges. De la chaleur. Rien que cela, mais cela fait toute la différence. Chaleur quant à la température d’abord. Et puis chaleur de l’architecture. Du bois, par ci par là. Des petits décors infimes mais qui changent tout. Je ne me suis jamais sentie si bien que dans une église qu’en Suède.
Kungliga Slottet, ton Palais Royal, résidence officielle de la famille royale de suède, un des plus grands châteaux d’Europe. On peut en arpenter quelques pièces et couloirs. Un palais royal comme tant d’autres. Celui-ci est de style baroque italien. Une relève de la garde comme tant d’autres, à midi, tous les jours, rythmée de musique.
Riksdaghuset, ton parlement. Ouvert au public qui peut donc assister aux délibérations de lois … on y entre, on découvre, on écoute.
Il y a tes musées.
Sur ton île Djugården, Vasamuseet (www.vasamuseet.se), ton plus célèbre musée. Il renferme le bateau de guerre Vasa, plus fier bateau de la flotte suédoise, qui, au cours de sa traversée inaugurale, sombra lorsqu’une brise légère se leva sur Stockholm. Trop peu large, trop lourd … Il était destiné à rejoindre la Pologne où le roi de Suède se trouvait déjà. C’était en 1628. Plus de trois siècles plus tard, l’emplacement du bateau fut repéré au fond de la mer. En 1961, sous les yeux d’un public charmé, Vasa sortit de l’eau. Admirablement bien conservé et remis en état, le bateau fascine aujourd’hui petits et grands.
Nationalmuseum, ton musée national, siège lors de notre visite d’une exposition espagnole : De El Greco à Dali. On y trouve un peu de tout, du XVIème siècle et ses peintres flamands au XIXème. Mais les impressionnistes tant attendus sont en vadrouille … Copenhague les héberge pour l’instant.
Nobelmuseet, tonmusée temporaire, logé dans Börsen la bourse, sur Gamla Stan, qui célèbre les lauréats et conte l’histoire d’Alfred Nobel. Thème : Hommage à la créativité. Deux salles de projection offrent des vidéos remarquables. Dans l’une, on fait connaissance avec les différents lauréats. L’autre fait hommage aux lieux propicesà la créativité. Les vidéos sont magiques ; on se laisse bercer par leurs jolies histoires.
Moderna Museet, ton musée d’art moderne. On a que l’occasion d’en apercevoir un fragment. Car les bâtiments principaux sont en rénovation.
Ton musée sans doute peu connu, découvert au hasard, dimanche 6 avril au matin, Liljevalchs konsthall. Une voix sortie d’un haut parleur à l’extérieur du musée répète inlassablement une seule phrase : « It’s great ! » Intrigués, on entre. Le petit musée est siège d’expositions temporaires. Aujourd’hui vient de débuter celle de Jårg Gesimar ; elle s’appelle The Optimist. La première salle donne le ton. Une salle gigantesque, toute bleue, bleu découpé de silhouettes toute jaunes. Elles ont été inspirées à l’auteur par des passants dans la rue. Il y a vu quelque optimisme, alors il les a gardées. Bleu et jaune, en rappel aussi du ciel et du soleil qui apparaissent au travers des fenêtres tout en haut. On accroche … on découvre. Art moderne fait de photos, de montages, de baignoires, d’alcool, de vêtements en plastiques et en prises électriques, de vidéos …
Il y a tes parcs aussi. Skansen (www.skansen.se), musée en plein air qui, depuis 1891, par ses maisons reconsitituées et ses personnes qui les habitent, retrace la vie suédoise du siècle dernier. Verrier, marchand d’allumettes, potier, tannerie, vieux magasin, imprimeur, poste … Et puis son zoo d’animaux nordiques aussi. Skansen est situé sur Djugården. Tout près, à l’endroit où accostent les bateaux de traversée venus de Gamla Stan, se trouve Gröna Lund Tivoli, parc d’amusement qui, depuis 1883, faire rire et crier les petits comme les grands.
Il ya a ta partie moderne. Et ses rues commerçantes maintes et maintes fois arpentées. Et sa gare dont on a fini par connaître tous les recoins. Et tes stations de métro – tunnelbana – « oeuvres d’art » dont on a raté les coins les plus jolis 🤪
Il y a aussi ta presque île, Skeppsholmen, terminée par ton Kastellet tout rouge. Sur tes flancs trône ta plus célèbre auberge de jeunesse, Af Chapmann, majestueux bateau blanc orné de trois mâts. Nous on dormira sur une autre rive, dans un autre bateau. Le « nôtre » s’appelle Gustav af Klimt.
Il y a, surtout, partout, ta magie … Dans les ruelles de Gamla Stan, dans ces couleurs de coucher de soleil. Je t’ai vue sous la neige, sous le soleil, sous le vent, au matin, au coucher du soleil … La première fois, c’était en compagnie de Gaëtan, la seconde, avec Nico, Hélène, Koïchi et Jason. Chacune de tes nuances, chacune de tes facettes - même si je n’en ai vu que quelques fragments – m’ont enchantée.

Viva l'Europe - France, Espagne, Portugal et Italie! English translation pending
Bonjour à tous!
Je suis en Europe depuis le 4 septembre. Je suis d'abord passé par la France :
Paris, l'auberge de jeunesse Jules-Ferry (près de la Place de la République) est très bien et ont y fait d'intéressantes rencontres - Bordeaux, ville sympa mais drôlement amochée par la construction d'un réseau de tramway- vendanges dans le coin de St-Emilion - Carcassonne, ça vaut le déplacement, la cité médiévale est très jolie! - Perpignan, de belles plages mais il doit commencer à y faire plus frais - Biarritz et St-Jean de Luz, très charmant comme petite ville, moins touristique que Biarritz.
Ensuite, le nord de l'Espagne :
San-Sebastian, très "party" comme ville, les pinchos (tapas) sont à essayer - Bilbao, le musée de Guggenheim est à voir. L'expo permanente de Calder est vraiment intéressante!!! - Burgos, belle petite ville - Santiago de Compostella, je n'ai pas fait le pélerinage, mais je peux vous dire que cette ville est très vivante. La plus grande Eglise de la ville est impressionnante Contrairement au reste du nord de l'Espagne, les habitants de la Gallicie sont très accueillants et chaleureux! Si vous y passez, ne manquez pas d'arrêter au resto-bar-café Nobis dans la vieille ville. Nicolas, le proprio a beaucoup voyagé et il est vraiment gentil! Le chef se débrouille très bien et les prix sont corrects!
Depuis le 12 octobre, je viens d'attaquer le Portugal. Pour l'instant je suis à Oporto et je compte bien aller à Coimbra, Lisboa puis Sagres (il semble qu'il s'agisse en quelque sorte du bout du monde, une pointe dans l'Atlantique!). Ouch pour le choc culturel au Portugal, la langue n'est pas aussi facile à apprivoiser que l'Espagnol. Toutefois, l'anglais (et même un peu de français) est parlé à plusieurs endroits au centre-ville d'Oporto. Super tournée des fabriques de portos cet après-midi (avec dégustation gratos!), tous les grands noms y sont : Taylor Fladgate, Ferreira, Offley, Sandeman, Pinto de Ramos, Warres, etc... très intéressant!
Je compte ensuite passer par Sevilla, Granada, possiblement Alicante et Barcelona, puis Marseilles... et ensuite, j'aimerais bien attaquer la Corse. Je compte être sur cette splendide île autour du début novembre. Seul hic, il semble que ce soit préférable à visiter en voiture. Alors si vous y allez autour de ces dates, faites-moi signe et on pourrait possiblement faire un bout de chemin ensemble!!!!
Ensuite, je compte bien séjourner en Sicile afin de découvrir cette autre île. Je vais ensuite remonter tranquillement vers Roma, en passant par la Calabre et Napoli.
Alors si vous avez quelque commentaire que ce soit sur l'un ou l'autre de ces endroits, ou même si vous passez dans le coin prochainement, vous êtes les bienvenus!!! Vous pouvez également me poser des questions sur les endroits que j'ai visités et je tenterai de vous aider!

Family Itinerary Feedback: Chiang Mai - Krabi/Railay - Bangkok
hi fellow travelers,
I'm "finalizing" a trip with my adventurous family (wife + 3 kids aged 16, 14, and 8) for this Easter break in Thailand (we'll be there from 04/19 to 05/01).
I'm going through the site and wanted to thank you all for the tips and insights you share on the forum. They're really valuable. But boy, it's tough to sketch out an itinerary
Of course, my backpacking route might be debatable, but I'm trying to target this path to get a first taste of the country's different "facets" and keep everyone in the family happy 😛
For this first trip, we're sticking to the classics and planning to explore a different side of the Land of Smiles in the future:
- arrival in BKK at 4 PM on 04/19 ==> leaving the same day at 7 PM for Chiang Mai (I "hesitated" with the 5:30 PM flight but was worried we wouldn't have enough time to switch from British AW to Thai Airways + airport fees + baggage + customs, etc. )
- from 04/20 to 04/23 ==> Chiang Mai with the main highlights (we've picked: Doi Suthep, Wat Pha Lat, elephant sanctuary, Doi Inthanon, the old city, Wat Chedi, Wat Phra Singh).
==> For the elephant sanctuary: any recommendations? Morning or afternoon visit?
==> It might seem ambitious, but we're considering a day trip to Chiang Rai—though it's not a must. Yes, we know it means ~6 hours of travel in one day.
- direct flight on the morning of 04/24 to Krabi ==> Railay - Phang Nga ==> this part isn't finalized yet (we won't stay in Krabi).
For those who've been there, which part of the south would be best weather-wise during this period?
We'd stay in the south until 04/28 and take a 8 PM flight to BKK.
- BKK on 04/29, 04/30, and part of 05/01 before our flight to London at 11 PM.
We'll hit the must-see/classic spots there.
If you have time to share some insights, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks a million to everyone!
Hédi.

What are your itinerary suggestions for a 2-week Scotland road trip starting from Edinburgh?
Hello,
we’re a couple planning a 2-week road trip this August, with a must-stop (about 3 days on Skye). Any route suggestions? Hotel recommendations? Photo spots?
Four days in Doha in January 2026
Hi everyone,
This short stay in Doha is part of a longer trip. It lets us break up a flight to the Seychelles.
Friday, January 16, The Corniche
Despite the adventures we had the day before (read about it here), we just can’t get up later than 8 a.m. Our minds are a bit clearer and a bit more positive after some sleep.
View of the Corniche from the 12th floor.
Breakfast is sumptuous—it really lifts our spirits.
On this Friday morning, almost everything is closed, so we head out to explore the Corniche, which is just a few hundred meters from our hotel in Old Doha.
A marathon is happening today on the Corniche, so the road is closed and empty, making it easy to cross. The palm-shaped streetlights are gorgeous when they’re lit up at night.
A little reminder of Qatar’s once-thriving pearl trade.
A memory of a much more recent past.
The sun is shining, but it’s not very warm—just 19°C at the hottest part of the day. Tough luck, last week it was 24°C.
The walk along the crescent-shaped Corniche is pretty long. From the old town to the modern center, where massive Dubai-style towers rise, it’s a 6 km promenade along the waterfront.
Many dhows are docked, waiting for tourists to take a little cruise in the bay, but visitors are scarce.
The skyscrapers are so stunning, you can’t help but admire them.

Where to stay to explore the Spanish Basque Country and Navarre?
Hello,
After a road trip in Quebec in 2025, we’re looking for a destination this year (around September 20th to October 10th) where we can settle in 2 or 3 spots and explore the area without having to drive 200 km every day to see something. I’ve had my eye on northeastern Spain for a while, and I thought of the Basque Country and its hinterland (Rioja? Navarre?) to avoid too many kilometers from Belgium. Bilbao and San Sebastián seem like must-sees, and beyond that, we love the vibe of small ports, medieval old towns (like Onati), hiking in beautiful landscapes, and cycling on greenways. I also spotted the Bardenas Reales, but it might be too far from a home base—unless we make it an extra stop... Based on this, can you recommend where it’d be interesting to set up base? Have a great evening, Claire

I also spotted the Bardenas Reales, but it might be too far from a home base—unless we make it an extra stop... Based on this, can you recommend where it’d be interesting to set up base? Have a great evening, Claire
The Baltic Capitals in September 2025
Hi everyone,
First off, 12 days of great weather at the end of summer—my husband’s fleece jackets were totally unnecessary. We visited Vilnius, Riga, and Tallinn in that order, and it was a great tip. Vilnius is peaceful, very colorful, the food is delicious, street art is everywhere, and strolling through the historic center is really enjoyable. We stayed there for 2 nights. A 4-hour Lux Express bus ride was perfect for getting to Riga, where we spent 3 days. The city is a mix of medieval, Gothic, and Baroque art, with Orthodox churches and synagogues in the old town, plus an Art Nouveau district featuring the Rosenthal House. The central market looks austere and huge, facing the colorful walls of the tourist center—it’s a real pleasure to wander the cobblestone streets and taste the local cuisine, with its Germanic and Uzbek influences. In Tallinn, the highlight of the trip, we found Art Nouveau again, colorful walls, and a fitting reminder of the past at the Museum of Occupations. There’s a hipster district, a trendy area, stunning originality, and an unexpected maritime museum in its design. The city is at the cutting edge of technology, and the youth are everywhere. The welcome was friendly everywhere, and we’ll keep great memories of it.

Norway Cruise: Sightseeing Ideas
Hi, we're going on a cruise to Norway departing from Dunkirk and sailing up the coast—can you share some ideas on what to visit? Thanks!

Two weeks in Corfu with the family – our feedback
Hi everyone,
Here’s a little account of our two-week family trip (with two boys aged 7 and 10) to Corfu. I hope it helps other travelers! We chose Corfu because there are direct flights from Paris, and we were looking for a destination where it’d be easy to swim with the kids. We were there from August 14 to 28.
Since I wasn’t sure about the distances and had read quite a bit about Greek driving and the state of the roads, I decided to split the trip into three parts: Corfu Town, the North, and the South.
Corfu Town (3 nights) Day 1: We landed in the late afternoon. Booked three nights via Booking on the edge of the old town (Sueno Garden Apartment), which is walkable from the airport—no need to rent a car for the first few days or stay in Corfu Town. First evening in the old town, dinner at Pane e Souvlaki on Dimarchiou Square. Touristy, but good vibes.
Day 2: Visited the Old Fort. Nice for the Church of St. George, which looks like an ancient Greek temple, and especially for the 360° view from the top. By 11 a.m., the sun was already beating down. Left the fort and strolled through the People’s Gardens. Lunch at Mouragia a bit further away, then backtracked to let the kids swim at Faliraki Bathing Beach.
Day 3: We took bus line 2A from Spinada (in front of the Old Fort) to the end of the runway (stop ΚΑΛΟΚΑΙΡΙ Ε). Poorly signposted when you’re at the top—you have to go down via the bar. Not well set up, which is a shame. The Panagia Vlacherna Monastery is pretty on its little island, but don’t turn around—the landings are impressive. Returned via the 2A with a stop at Mon Repos Beach, where the kids loved jumping off the pier.
North (6 nights) Day 4: Headed to Sidari, rented a small Fiat Panda from Europcar—no issues with this rental company (I booked late, so it’s probably possible to find cheaper). We’d also booked via Booking at Blue Dreams Apartment, just south of Sidari. A family-run hotel with a nice pool, we had a great stay (it’s just been taken over by Belgians who speak French). We wandered around Sidari to the Canal d’Amour. Not easy to access—you have to walk through all the bars, and the tiny beach is pretty dirty. Still, it’s fun for a swim and exploring the cave.
Day 5: Quick breakfast to be at Cap Drastis by 9 a.m. Parked at the top, but there’s very little space (we couldn’t park on the way back), and it’s a dirt road. The signs saying “To the sea” actually lead to a boat dock for a cape tour. You only see the cape from above, not below. A bit of a letdown, but since it was early and no one was down there yet, we treated ourselves to a quick swim. Brunch back in Sidari at Eviva—I recommend it: not Greek at all, but high quality. Agios Stefanos in the late afternoon after the heat. The port is awful (dirty and uninteresting), but there’s a swimming spot just before the beach, near the old port (park above, by the church). No one was there—great moment with the kids.
Day 6: Left around 9 a.m. for Mount Pantokrator. A bit of a climb at the end in the Fiat Panda—it’s steep! The road is long, but I think it’s worth it for the lunar landscape at the top, the monastery-antenna, and the 360° view. Then down to Kassiopi (we paid 5 euros for the Kassiopi Car Park—I think it’s the best option, as there’s no big free parking like in Sidari) and a swim at Paralia Mpataria (small but nice). Really relaxing in the late afternoon. Walked around the peninsula and saw several dolphin pods with amazing jumps. Unforgettable. Kassiopi is more family-friendly than Sidari and has more charm (Sidari has none, so that’s easy!).
Day 7: Morning off at the hotel, then afternoon at Paralia Kalamaki for the inflatable playground the kids had spotted on the way back from Kassiopi. 10 euros per person for an hour, not many people around 4 p.m., and we had a blast. Shallow sandy beach. Not much marine life, but safe for young kids. Note: free freshwater shower. Dinner at Nikos Family Restaurant in Roda. Great welcome and atmosphere. The stifado and soutzoukakia were delicious, and the Greek desserts were amazing too. Next door, at Roda Park restaurant, there was a Greek party with traditional dancing and plaster plate-smashing. Even though we didn’t eat there, everyone was invited to join in the street—it was fun. Probably touristy, but pretty spontaneous, and it was a good time.
Day 8: I’d booked two dives in Paleokastritsa with Achilleon Diving Center, directly via WhatsApp. Great international vibe, two easy but interesting dives (a barracuda school and a “cow” nudibranch at Colovri Reefs, cool crevasses and holes at Donald’s Place). In the afternoon, we visited the Paleokastritsa Monastery (well-maintained, pretty nice) and spent some time at the beach (very crowded).
Day 9: Day off—we enjoyed the hotel pool and went to Olea next door to buy a small olive wood souvenir. Note that the old man who works the wood doesn’t have many fingers left…
South (5 nights) Day 10: Headed to Lefkimmi. Stopped at Achilleion on the way. I knew from reviews that only the gardens were accessible, but I think it’s worth it, even at 7 euros. We passed by the French military cemetery nearby (nothing special, poorly signposted but quiet and peaceful) and ate at Elia Tavern right next door: super good, best calamari of the trip. We’d booked our accommodation at Villa Rosa South Corfu, a bit outside Lefkimmi, near Alikes. Pretty isolated, but the beach is a 3-minute walk away, right next to the old salt pans. On the way, we saw a poster (use Google Lens to translate) for a local festival near Linia. We went that evening: barbecue, concert, and local dancing. Lots of people, but only locals—it was a great time.
Day 11: Short “hike” to Arkoudilas. We parked at the exit of Kavos, just before The Rose Tree restaurant. Some people drive all the way to the beach, but it’s very rocky. We followed the “Monastery” path to see Cape Asprokavos and the ruins of the monastery nearby. To avoid backtracking, we continued through the woods after the monastery to reach Arkoudilas Beach. Nice shaded walk, but dusty road. Dinner at Agali on the Potami Canal (friendly family vibe, but long wait).
Day 12: Boat trip to Sivota with Pegasus. A wooden boat, human-sized. Crowded, but not cramped. Two swimming stops (Blue Lagoon in the morning and a beach in the afternoon) and a 2-hour stop at noon in Sivota. We knew it’d be touristy, but the vibe was good, with some dancing on the way back. Not too many people at the swimming stops.
Day 13: Kouris Museum in Lefkimmi. Okay, don’t go for the history—the guide cracks more jokes than gives rational explanations. Still, we laughed a lot and had a great time. Lunch at The Village on the main road: very fresh, very good. Perfect homemade dip platter. Not the best location since it’s right on the road, but it’s worth it. Free ice cream for the kids, super-friendly owner. Fresh ratatouille (finally, some veggies!). Afternoon at Paralia Issos. View of Korission Lagoon and a walk through the sand dunes, a bit like the Sahara in places (hard to do before 5 p.m., even 6 p.m., because of the heat).
Day 14: I’d booked a visit/tasting at Pontiglio Winery. Short tour of the small site and tasting of the 4 wines produced there: 2 whites, 1 red, 1 rosé. Fresh homemade snacks, fruit for the kids, great welcome. Then to Paralia Kanoula Beach. Mikro Nisi Bar, sunbeds at 20 euros—expensive. But a nice beach with some rocks, so a bit of marine life. We saw octopuses while snorkeling with the kids—great moment.
Honest take on Corfu The island is dirty—not just at the garbage sites, which aren’t collected often enough and overflow constantly, but everywhere. Not a single square meter without cigarette butts, even if you get off the main paths. Stray cats everywhere, wasps everywhere, sewage smells often.
The natural heritage is stunning but ruined by private encroachment on the coastline. Bars and restaurants take over the land right up to the sea. I’d only been to Santorini and Paros about ten years ago, and I don’t remember it being like this at all. Maybe the Cyclades are different now. From talking to a few tourists here and there, it seems Crete is better managed. We still had a good vacation, even if it was sometimes hard to overlook the dirtiness.
Here’s a little account of our two-week family trip (with two boys aged 7 and 10) to Corfu. I hope it helps other travelers! We chose Corfu because there are direct flights from Paris, and we were looking for a destination where it’d be easy to swim with the kids. We were there from August 14 to 28.

Your thoughts on my Zanzibar itinerary prep?
Hi there, I’m planning our trip for February 2026. I’ve done my homework, but I’d still love your insights in case I’ve missed anything.
Arrival in Stone Town – 1 night
Jambiani – 6 nights. Activities with a guide: Mnemba, Safari Blue Mangrove, Nakupenda sandbank, etc. Without a guide, we’re thinking of renting bikes on the beach, visiting Maalum Cave, Jozani Forest ??? (no strong opinions), N’tende ??? What do you think? Quad biking?
Nungwi – 3 nights, mostly chilling and a sunset boat ride.
Last day: on the way to the airport, visit Stone Town and a spice farm.
For Jambiani, I was considering Garden Beach Bungalow. Any other accommodation recommendations?
Thanks a million for your feedback...

Is a guide mandatory to visit Ghardaia?
Hi everyone, I’m heading back to Algeria for the fourth time. I’d like to visit Ghardaia. I’ve booked my flight ticket from Oran to Ghardaia, but I read in the latest *Petit Futé* that you need to go through a local travel agency. For the south, I know it’s mandatory, but can anyone give me info about Ghardaia? I’m planning to hire a guide from the hotel where I have my reservation. Thanks!
13 nights in Crete with family: itinerary, tips, and questions before departure
Hi everyone,
I’d love to get your thoughts on a 13-night trip to Crete this summer. We’ll be 2 adults and 2 kids (5 and 10 years old), and we’re renting a car to get around.
➔ If you have any tips on renting a car, I’m all ears! (I was thinking of picking it up at the airport.)
For now, I’m planning a round-trip flight to Heraklion (I’m still debating whether to return from Chania, in which case we’d spend our last night in Paleóchora or Elos). Here’s how I’m splitting up the nights:
08/07 - 11/07 (3 nights) → Heraklion
Visit the Minoan Palace of Knossos Explore the city: archaeological museum, Venetian harbor, Koules Fortress Possible day trip to Matala or the east coast, depending on how we feel
11/07 - 14/07 (3 nights) → Rethymnon
Explore Rethymnon’s old town Walk around Argiroupoli (natural springs, waterfalls) Relax on the beaches in the area
14/07 - 18/07 (4 nights) → Chania
Visit the historic center Day trip to Seitan Limania (wild beach) Day at Balos Beach & Gramvousa (by boat or hike)
18/07 - 20/07 (2 nights) → Paleóchora or Elos ➔ Do you have a preference between these two spots? They both seem like great, low-key places, but Elos is more mountainous.
Hike through Samaria Gorge (full-day trip) ➔ Do you think this is doable with a 5-year-old? I’ve read there’s a bus at the end of the gorge, but I’m worried about missing the ferry and having to rush the kids. Relax at Elafonissi Beach
20/07 - 21/07 (1 night) → Heraklion
Return the day before our flight to avoid stress.
Thanks in advance for your feedback and tips! 😊

24-hour layover in Dubai in summer: what to do?
Hi,
We’re heading to Asia this summer, and to avoid arriving in the middle of the night, we’ve decided to stop over in Dubai for a day and a half on the way there and back. Any ideas for activities during this super-hot period? Bonus points if they’re reasonably priced 🙂 Which neighborhood is best to stay in?
Thanks in advance, and have a great day!

Tenerife or Rhodes in mid-April
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!

Layover in Kotor
Hi everyone,
I’m going on a Costa cruise in May with a stop in Kotor.
Does anyone know if we’ll disembark by tender boats and if we can explore Kotor on our own?
Thanks for your replies!
Have a great evening
Family trip to Quebec: checking our itinerary
Hi everyone,
We’re heading out as a family from July 2nd to 16th on a loop from Montreal to Montreal. We’re a couple with a little girl who’ll be turning 7 in July, plus my in-laws (one of whom uses a wheelchair).
Here’s our itinerary:
Wednesday, July 2: Arrival in Montreal in the early afternoon – picking up the car at the airport – exploring the city and overnight in Montreal Thursday, July 3: Montreal – overnight in Montreal Friday, July 4: Visit to Parc Omega – overnight in Saint-Jérôme Saturday, July 5: Heading to Trois-Rivières – visit to a sugar shack (Chez Dany? or another name?) – exploring the old town – overnight in Trois-Rivières Sunday, July 6: Shawinigan – Le Village du Bûcheron in Grandes-Piles? – black bear watching (probably not doable for wheelchair users, I think?!) – overnight in Trois-Rivières Monday, July 7: Heading to Chicoutimi – Saguenay – day at Lac Saint-Jean / Val-Jabert – overnight in Saguenay Tuesday, July 8: L’Anse-Saint-Jean – Saguenay Fjord National Park – overnight in Saguenay Wednesday, July 9: Tadoussac – exploring the area and the town – overnight in Tadoussac Thursday, July 10: Whale watching – Baie-Sainte-Catherine – overnight in Tadoussac Friday, July 11: La Malbaie – Baie-Saint-Paul – overnight on Île aux Coudres Saturday, July 12: Exploring the area? – overnight on Île aux Coudres Sunday, July 13: Montmorency Falls – overnight in Quebec City Monday, July 14: Quebec City – overnight in Quebec City Tuesday, July 15: Quebec City and return to Montreal – overnight in Beloeil Wednesday, July 16: Montreal – evening flight
We’ve booked our rooms to ensure a wheelchair-accessible room is available. When searching on Expedia or Booking, few hotels have rooms with a shower accessible for wheelchairs (so a real PMR room). However, these are cancelable, so if something really stands out, I’m all ears 😉.
We’ve booked our car through BSP Auto and we’re flying with Air Transat.
Thanks for any feedback and tips for the visits.
See you soon 🙂 Jennifer

A week in the Algarve
Back from a week in the Algarve.
The goal was to get some fresh air, walk at a relaxed pace (80 km in 6 days), and visit friends.
Transavia flight: No issues YorCar rental: No issues (and cheap) B&B 1: Quinta do Mocho Turismo Rural in Estoy: Good, even if a bit remote B&B 2: Casa Luma B&B in Lagos: Disappointed (and really disappointed with room #3)
Day 1: Flight, rental car, stop at São Lourenço in Almancil, and visit to Loulé Day 2: Olhão, walk at Praia do Barril, Tavira, and evening in Faro’s old town (park at São Francisco parking lot) Day 3: Walk on the boardwalks at Quinto do Ludo, Falesia beaches, Carvoeiro Day 4: The boardwalks in Alvor, Praia da Rocha in Portimão, Ferragudo, and the boardwalks around Algar Seco Day 5: Ponta da Piedade in Lagos, walk to Praia de Luz from Praia Camilho Day 6: Burgau, Cape Sagres, Cape St. Vincent, Carrapateira, and Praia da Bordeira Day 7: "Sete Vales Suspensos" hike from Marinha Beach
Our highlights: - The Vincentine Coast (Carrapateira), much nicer than the concrete of the southern coast - The fish restaurants and Cataplana (A Barrigada in Lagos, Ribeira do Poço in Vila do Bispo...) - The boardwalks everywhere (Quinto do Ludo, Alvor, Algar Seco...) - The sun on the cliffs and Falesia Beach (it’s the local Bryce Canyon) - Chatting with the fishermen perched on the cliffs of Carrapateira - The weather (we were lucky for early March)
Our disappointments: - The towns and villages (Tavira and Lagos stand out) - The traffic off the highway - The English, the English, and more English everywhere

Review of a cruise on Le Lirica (Greek islands, Egypt)
Hi everyone,
A little feedback on our 12-day cruise in early November on the Lirica.
The Lirica is a human-sized ship with 2,500 passengers for an old-school cruise—no extra-charge themed restaurants or bars, but large lounge bars with plenty of seating. We had no trouble grabbing a drink. The meals are decent, the staff is always helpful, but the ship is starting to show its age, and the cabins aren’t exactly fresh anymore. The low point: the shows were the worst we’ve seen in eight cruises—barely up to camping standards.
Day 1 Boarding in Venice. Since the ship now departs from Marghera, there’s a transfer from the terminal to the ship by water shuttle. Day 2 At sea. Day 3 Katakolon We’ve already visited Olympia twice, so we did some shopping at the port and the only shopping street. Day 4 Heraklion Excursion with MSC to the Palace of Knossos and shopping. It’s a bit pricier than doing it on your own, but you get the guide’s explanations.
After visiting the palace, we explored Heraklion—a very lively city.
Day 5 Rhodes The ship docks just steps from the old town, a magnificent city surrounded by its ramparts.
Visit to the Palace of the Grand Masters.

Nine days around Phuket
Hi everyone,
I’m arriving in Phuket on March 1st until the 10th. We’ll have about 9 days there with two kids, aged 10 and 7.
We’d like to visit a few islands... Any ideas? We’ve looked at Koh Phi Phi, Koh Lanta, Similan Islands, Phang Nga Bay...
Based on your experiences, what could be a good mini-itinerary?
We’d like to do some diving or snorkelling, a bit of sightseeing (viewpoints, etc.), and some beach time...
Thanks everyone

Cécile découvre Amsterdam, les Pays-Bas et... Metz English translation pending
et hop ! une nouvelle capitale européenne et ses alentours pour Cécile ....
Brel et Béart ont chanté cette charmante ville qui lui tardait de découvrir.. grâce à un CE généreux qui rend accessibles les Adagio Hôtel d'Europe...
11h de route ce dimanche de de retour de vacances... arrivée tardive et nocturne sur place donc dodo le 1er soir
La météo est mouvant mais que rien ne nous arrête... direction Utrecht..
1er choc: des vélos partout !!!! donc vitesse réduite ce qui permet de découvrir des bâtiments insolites
Utrecht centre ses canaux, l'Oudegracht
les touristes n ont pas encore envahi les bars des quais
Même le ramassage des poubelles se fait par péniche!
Pas de chance les 465 marches du Dom sont impossibles d accès

Réserver sur place ou via un tour-operator pour visiter Delos? English translation pending
Bonjour à tous,
Ma fille et moi devrions (si nos avions ne sont pas annulés...) arriver à Mykonos pour les vacances et faire quelques îles avec les ferries. Ma question est la suivante : nous voudrions visiter Delos et je voudrai savoir s'il est plus avantageux (et) ou préférable d'acheter ses billets sur place ou en ligne via "getyourguide" ou "tripadvisor" ? Merci à l'avance pour vos retours. Le départ est prévu samedi...
