Summer is finally here, and if you are looking for a European beach getaway that is beautiful, sunny, and incredibly safe, you need to look at the latest updates from the U.S. State Department. When the U.S. government hands out safety ratings, they are famously strict. The State Department does not take chances with American …

Forget the Amalfi Coast and the $400-a-night villas, Mallorca with the distasteful Brit-led stag dos, and Mykonos’ surging cruising hordes—now with Emily i̶n̶ ̶P̶a̶r̶i̶s̶ in Greece approaching, to say that godforsaken island is crowded would be an understatement. Mediterranean summers are all about kicking it back on a pebbly beach, admiring the views of a …

New European train routes are a dime a dozen, as we say stateside. Brand new train companies, though? Now that’s a different story — and unquestionably one worth telling, especially when it leads to one of Central Europe’s last remaining breathtaking towns, the kind of place that will truly rock your socks off…or your Crocs …

To no surprise, London, Paris, and Barcelona are not Europe’s cheapest destinations. With a name like Travel Off Path, sometimes you have to do just that to save the big bucks. A new U.K. based report unveiled explicit details as far as pricing goes, listing 4 underrated cities that are well worth your while for …

Europe’s lakes can be just as beautiful as the coast. The same can’t always be said stateside, where muddy waters may cue a country song but not exactly a postcard picture. Of course, the first one that comes to mind “across the pond” is Lake Como, but the secret has long been out on Italy’s …

7-some years of traveling to Greece, and my Greek is still at an elementary level. I can get by with my rehearsed souvlaki orders, and your usual ‘hellos’, ‘pleases’, ‘thank yous’, but don’t honk at me and throw at me a malaka if I’m driving really carefully along the unprotected cliffside road. I won’t be …

Between Europe’s new overly strict fingerprinting rules, and Thailand reducing visa-free stays’ length, it’s easy to feel as if the world isn’t exactly rolling out the red carpet to American citizens at the moment. We won’t sugarcoat it, regardless of the side of the political spectrum you find yourself in, and we’re not here to …

I’ve visited just under 20 destinations in Mexico, from inland charmers like Aguascalientes to the village of Tequila (for obvious reasons). While I’m undeniably privileged with my job as a travel writer to be able to cover so much ground, I can’t help but feel sorry for those scared of our southern neighbors simply because …

Between the $400-a-night oceanfront villas in Amalfi and the entire city of Venice now existing behind a paywall, at least for day-trippers, it’s easy to feel like it’s impossible to properly live out the Italian summer dream without taking a huge hit to the wallet. We won’t lie to you: if you’re chasing after all …

Look, I totally get the appeal of snagging an aisle seat in a premium cabin and flying straight to a massive resort where your biggest worry is reapplying sunscreen, I do it a few times a year. But travel is shifting. We’re all getting a little burned out on packed national parks and fighting for …

As far as European lake getaways go, one could argue Lake Como is the blueprint to rule them all… or is it? One of the largest, glitziest, most iconic lakes in Northern Italy, fringed by luxurious villas and timeless small towns dominated by medieval belfries, it is the number one inland destination for water babies …

They say to never settle, but that’s exactly what travelers end up doing when visiting some of the most sought-after destinations on Earth.
