Visit Magical Kenya Taita Hills

I m a 19yo Belgian student and I'd like to plan a trip to Paris with friends but I've been struggling finding a hotel in that will accept my debit visa card. They all require a credit card, even on Booking. They say they accept visa but no one will accept mine.

I tried using my parents' credit card (with their approval) but the holder of the card and the card must both be present at check-in. I m at a loss and unsure what to do. I have the money and the payment is under my card's monthly limit. I called my bank and they said there's nothing to do. The hotels won't accept a picture of the card at check-in and they won't accept transfers with IBAN.

It's frustrating, I have money but no one wants it. Has anyone been in this situation before?

Are you guys here for a pretty long time can you give me a job? I'm a 36 yr old Sri Lankan wpman & I desperatly in a job. I asked literally all the forums that locals are in but still couldn't get an answer. Thought I might try here as well. Please if you are a tourist/foreigner in Sri Lanka & need someone to work for you please let me know in the comments.

Thanks

So what with all the protests from Spanish locals against tourism, I am very curious to know what the country/some cities would be like if they DIDNT get tourism? Would it be detrimental to their economy? or would they be just fine if no one ever visited Spain again? Genuinely curious and no shade to the people in the protests - they have every right to protest!

Me and 5 other friends are planning on staying 4 nights in El Mouradi Palm Marina hotel in Port El Kantaoui, Tunisia and was wondering if any locals near Port El Kantaoui had any insight into its rep. As we are from the UK, i was also wondering whether we should keep any things in mind when visitng Tunisia like any official docs/airport rules and just things to keep in mind when in the country. Do they accept British currency etc.

It would also be helpful to know any attractions or places to visit near our hotel. If this is the wrong subreddit for this, please do let me know.

In Santorini, many tourists ride donkeys up the steep steps to the Caldera, but what many don’t realize is the suffering these animals endure

🚫 These donkeys are often overworked, forced to carry heavy loads in extreme heat, without adequate water, rest, or care. Some are even injured and still made to work. Their handlers have been known to whip and mistreat them to ensure they keep moving, regardless of their condition.

Instead, consider taking the cable lift- a much kinder and faster way to experience the views of Santorini without contributing to animal cruelty.

Let’s show compassion for these hardworking animals. 💙 Take a stand and choose ethical tourism!

Has there ever been a place that was once a hot tourism locale that then got a bad reputation or something, and as a result their tourism industry collapsed?

I am conducting a survey for my master's thesis with the aim of understanding the perceptions and expectations of tourists in Portugal regarding gamification in cultural heritage. Your participation in this survey is essential to the success of my research. Thank you!

I am planning to visit Paris between August 1st and 4th. However, on a reservation site for the Eiffel Tower, the reservations appear to be unavailable, and I wonder if this is because of the Olympics. Another thing I read is that tourists will be required to register to access certain areas of Paris. Could any of you explain how to access the Eiffel Tower on these dates?

Thank you!!!!.

Greetings from Alberta, where we have a lot of Scottish inspired place names (Calgary,Banff, Bowness, Airdrie, Smithsville...)

I get to spend four days, flying (now that the Westjet strike is over) into EDI, soloing it before meeting up with my family in Malta. Four days. July 2-6.

Originally, I had planned on spending the four days booting around (on foot) EDI and Portabello (where I'm staying). And to be sure, I'd be quite happy doing that. But... I have secured an outrageously (for me) good deal on a car hire, and now I'm a bit torn. This will be my first visit, but I'm fairly certain that we (my fam and I) will return. In other words, I'm not interested in seeing every possible thing on my first visit. On the other hand, I am rather fond of the road trip, and (being from Canada) the idea of driving for eight or ten hours to do a big tour of the countryside, stopping and being a tourist at my leisure, is also, to me, fun.

I know what I'm about to ask will be an entirely personal decision, but what are some considerations I might not have thunk about when considering the following two options? Cost is a minimal consideration, and so is driving time. I actually love roadtrips.

1. Touring Edinburgh and Portabello by foot and transit. Four full days.
2. One day in EDI, seeing what I can, and three days of roadtripping to see the surroundings. I have three itineraries tentatively planned (links to Google Maps stops)

Trip 1 - East towards Falkirk

Trip 2 - North towards St. Andrews

Trip 3 - Highlands

Some considerations...

--> weather (I don't mind soggy wet and windy, but four days of walking through it might become tedious)

--> mobility (I caught myself a pinched nerve which is making walking moderately uncomfortable. Driving is fine).

--> driving (I absolutely DO NOT mind driving for a full day.)

I thank you all in advance for your insight and suggestions for additions to the itinerary.

I always had an interest in history, especially since both my grandfather's served the US Army in WWII. Sadly, my one grandfather served during the Burma campaign, and I think it's mind of self-explanatory that Burma is out.

I found a tour group that seems to be capitalizing on the Band of Brothers HBO series. But I was wondering if anyone else knows if the $3600 price tag is worth it or if there's any other vacation packages that give you more bang for your buck.

My family and I were planning to put in a trip to the US this winter, and we were wondering where to go. On our last trip 9 years ago, we visited DC, Houston, LA, San Francisco, Buffalo and NYC.

This time, I really wanna go back to NYC along with a multiple day trip to Disney World. What other places could we visit on a 2-4 week trip?

Hi all, What is the best way to to get from these two placesz either via public transport or private hire? I’m assuming no Uber or taxi will cross the border?

Is the bus the only option?

Since I earned plenty of rewards in school, my dad decided to take me on a wild safari in the U.S. Any suggestions for wild game viewing (Moose, Bear, and Wolves specifically)
