Take it from me, someone who always becomes a pantomiming master as if I’ve never traveled before, learning a new city’s transit system is no easy feat no matter where you find yourself. Being so iconic, Paris is obviously one of the most visited cities in the world — maybe even the most visited depending …
When you envision a trip across the pond, there’s virtually no chance an Old World city hasn’t crossed your mind. Whether it’s tourist-filled London or perhaps a hidden gem locals love and prefer to stay quiet about, the point is that a European getaway almost always means immersing yourself in centuries of history, intentional or …
If there was ever a way to explore France without Paris on your itinerary, chances are you’ve gotta hit the rails! Given the sheer magnitude of Paris’s popularity, it’s hard to imagine visiting France without at least making a Parisian pit stop. 🥐 But it’s not solely the “City of Lights” that makes France the …
It’s hard to find a good deal in London. Oftentimes, you just have to accept that a beer you can’t pronounce costs $11, and you may be best served exploring on your own rather than hopping aboard a tour. That said, the rest of the UK doesn’t have the touristy prices, with the exception of some other …
A common misconception is that the United Kingdom (UK) and the sun don’t often belong in the same sentence. Full disclosure: every time I write a UK-based article (including this one), it takes extra time to find sunny photos that fit the theme. Don’t worry, though. I sweat it out and found some goodies, so …
If there’s one bragging right Europe has against America, it’s their vast train system. I don’t know about you, but every time I venture ‘across the pond’, I’m blown away by how cheap domestic flights can be and how well connected every country seems to be by train, both high-speed and the ‘we’ll get there …
Having to book a bus or make yet another trip to the airport can really bring down the vibe of any European vacation. We all know the way to go is by train, as it seems every worthwhile destination is a smooth ride away. Well, it turns out a few of Europe’s most timeless cities …
Who wants to hop around Europe on Ryanair’s sardine-like seating and fee this, fee that format? It’s certainly not for everyone. But what always passes the vibe check is exploring the world by train. Europe tends to do a phenomenal job keeping rail routes on schedule, unlike airports, where it always feels like a crapshoot… …
As Americans are way behind the times in traversing the world by rail, Europeans have had the concept down pat for decades. The UK is turning back the clock, bringing back an iconic steam train that once ruled the rails as early as the 1940s—the first model, anyway. Ultimately, the train took a page from LL Cool …
Whether it’s Athens, Paris, or finding the one welcoming place in Spain nowadays, Europe is always calling our name when we’re ready to cash in our PTO. But hold off on making travel plans for a moment! A new report claims there’s a record-breaking train that’s undoubtedly Europe’s top summer adventure. You might be surprised …
Oh, London. It seems like a half-day journey taking a bus into the city, yet you can escape to an unheard-of gem in just half an hour. Make it make sense! The big city life isn’t for everyone. In fact, it’s safe to say most tourists don’t traverse London properly anyway. If you’re idea of …
We all know Rome is an instantly recognizable icon that lures all levels of travelers, from first-timers to the most seasoned of us with beat-up passports.
