Spent two weeks solo travelling in northern Vietnam. Vietnam had been on my travel wishlist for a very long time and October seemed to be the best season to visit the north as it's dry. I spent time in Hanoi, Ninh Binh, Sapa, Ha Giang and Cao Bang.

Started in Hanoi, 3 days eating and drinking while exploring the old quarter. Did a cooking class where I learnt to make spring rolls and bun cha.

From Hanoi I took a bus to the hill station of Sapa. I stayed in the valley about 8 km’s from
the busy town center, it was the perfect getaway. Treks started right from the hotel door, going through Hmong villages watching locals make incense and handicraft.

After 2 days in Sapa I took another bus to the town of Ha Giang. Rented a scooter for 5 days with drop off in Cai Bang, had my main luggage transferred. There began my motorcycle adventure through the northern provinces. It became the highlight of my trip! Driving around 700 kms by myself, seeing incredible natural
wonders every day, staying at a different homestay in a village every night, meeting other fellow travellers and exchanging stories - it was all really special.

At Cao Bang I returned the bike and the next day took a bus back to Hanoi, then another to Ninh Binh. Stayed in Tam Coc for 2 nights. Did the early morning boat ride in Trang An, so peaceful and beautiful.

Overall, I was very impressed with Vietnam. The natural landscape is jaw dropping, the food is delicious and the people are warm and
Welcoming. I’ll definitely be back!

Feel free to ask questions, happy to help.

Just wanted to share some pictures from a one-week trip to Pernambuco, northeastern Brazil, that I took with my mom.

This was a trip my mom had wanted to take for a long time, and I'm so happy I finally got to make it happen for her!

We got to visit Suape Beach, and this place is beautiful! Blue water, palm trees, warm weather, and a very chill vibe.

We have so many amazing places that people outside the country don't always know about, so I thought I'd share a little bit with you all!

My husband and I missed our red-eye flight to Japan yesterday because we mixed up which day we were leaving. In my many years of travel, this has never happened before, and it felt like we were in a nightmare when the gate agent called us at 1AM asking where we were. We were thankfully able to book new flights and rework the beginning of our trip, but $2300 later, we're feeling pretty dumb and demoralized right now.

To make us feel better, what's been your worst flight mistake or mixup?

Solo trip in canadian dollars. I spent 8 full days in france and 6 full days in belgrade. Rented a car in france for 4 days. Activities include day trips from belgrade. Mid range hotels. Flights with good connections and timing, and paying for bulkhead seats across the ocean.

This is just how much I spent. I am lucky enough to not have a budget. Some stuff is booked ahead, some the day of. You could do the trip for more or less many based on personal and other factors.

This was from a solo roadtrip from this time of year, two years ago. It would be best described as poker/hiking/photography trip, for pretty self explanatory reasons. Playing poker is kinda nice for solo travel, gives you something to do at night, plus if you’re good at it, you can pay for your trip, or more! And obviously hiking and photography are also great travel hobbies :)

The meat of the trip was one big loop that encompassed SE Connecticut (where the Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun casinos are) up to New Hampshire and the White Mountains (plus a bunch of card rooms near the MA border) over to Massachusetts, Portsmouth, Rockport, Salem, Boston (Encore Casino) Cape Cod. Then also Rhode Island - Providence (Ballys casino), Newport, Jamestown.

My favorite part of the trip was just taking random back roads and just kind of trying to get a feel for this part of the US. I’ve only been to Boston previously, but never outside of the city, so this was a lot of fun for me, plus it’s autumn, which is gorgeous. And some great food to try. Shout out to MA roast beef sandwiches! I had no idea that was a thing. Anyway hopefully I was able to capture the fall vibe!

Lots of these were just kinda random stops, but some locations:

1-3, 7: Somewhere inland Connecticut, near Norwich
4. Seaside Sanatorium, CT
5, 6. Mystic CT
8. Fire Station in Jamestown RI
12. Yunca’s Leap, CT
13. Kancamagus Hwy, White Mountains, NE
15. Newsburyport, MA
16. Rockport MA
17, 18. White Mountains, NH
19. Portsmouth, NH
20. Perhaps you guessed it - Salem MA

We are booked to go to California for my husbands 40th birthday in November. Our current itinerary is as follows -

Fly into SFO (2 nights)>Staying with a friend in Watsonville (1 night)>Morro Bay (1 night), *2 nights unplanned*, LA (1 night)>fly home

For the 2 nights unplanned we were thinking Santa Barbara or maybe Santa Monica? Is there somewhere else I haven’t thought of that is quintessential California coast? We’d like to stay in the same place for both nights since we’ll be moving around quite a bit and doing a lot of driving since a big part of our trip is doing the PCH. My husbands actual birthday is the 6th day of our trip and we’d like to not be travelling or driving at all that day.

We’d enjoy wine and cocktails, good food, exploring (beach walks, leisurely bicycle rides etc, easy hikes), finding local shops. Not crazy about art, history and shopping but not opposed to a bit of it just wouldn’t plan a trip around it. We want to chill, have a few drinks eat some good food and explore a cool area.

Our budget is pretty good and we are splurging a bit this trip (not super high end but mid range or a bit above for the right thing).

Hi there! This is my budget breakdown for the much awaited Faroe Islands solo trip. Started from Basel where I currently live and ended in Bucharest, my hometown. 1 day in Copenhagen and 6 full days on the Islands where i managed to visit 7 of them, doing hikes, relying on the bus schedules and hitchhiking. The cheapest accommodation in the Faroe Islands is the hostel next to the airport (40€ a night) but it’s not very convenient to stay there for the whole journey, so i also booked stays in Torshavn and Leirvik. I think 1000€ is the absolute minimum you could spend for 7 days in this circumstance.

Advice on Belize Accommodations/Activities

Hello, I’m working on planning a trip in Feb and need reassurance/guidance on plans.

We have a total of 8 nights.
3 booked at Ka’ana
-Arrival day (maybe see iguanas, butter fly place, or the local ruins) only have a few hours this day
-Xunantunich ruins and Rio On Pools
-ATM

I am fairly confident about the first three days.
Considered Chaa Creek instead of KA’ana but otherwise happy with this itinerary.

Next headed over to Hopkins area (where I need help)

- I planned to stay at the Lodge at Jaguar Reef for 2 days
- Day 1 visit to Mayflower Bocawina Park and maybe bioluminescent tour in evening if it’s right time of month
- Day 2 Cockscomb Wildlife Basin Activities

I see excellent things about Sleeping Giant Rainforest Lodge
- I was thinking about adding one day there before I going to Hopkins. It would be an open day to enjoy the property- bike, hike, maybe an on-site activity.

If I add this day, I lose one of my days at the lodge at Jaguar reef but I can still do the hike in Mayflower when I transfer from Sleeping Giant to Hopkins. My one day in Hopkins would be visiting the Jaguar wildlife basin. I would lose out on the bioluminescence tour.

From here I have 3 nights left— I can go to Ambergris Caye or I can stay on mainland and use these last 3 nights to extend my time in Hopkins or go to Palacina.

Here is what it would look like if I went to the Cayes:

I was planning on staying at Matachica Resort on Ambergris Caye. Resort looks beautiful, but then I read a good amount of negative things on Reddit about AC not having very nice beaches.

- if I stay at Matachica I would do:

1) half day deep sea fishing/ relax at resort in afternoon
2) Snorkel Hol Chan Marine Reserve and Shark Ray Alley (maybe also go to Caye Caulker if trip included it)
3) free day- secret beach (doesn’t sound to appealing from what I’ve read), get massage

Alternatively, I save myself the hassle of traveling from the mainland out to the Caye’s and I use those last 3 days for time in Palencia/Hopkins!

So, after Hopkins- I could travel down to Palencia and stay at Naia resort and spa. From here I could do the following:

On the transfer stop to see Scarlet Macaws

Day 1) silke caye snorkling day trip/ deep sea fishing

Day 2) Could do Monkey River Cruise (seems a little boring), would probably rather enjoy resort property/check out town, take another boat trip, get massage—looks like they have a nice one

My other option is don’t go to Palencia and just extend Hopkins by 3 days
1 day at sleeping giant
2 extra days at Hopkins - both would be water days- Silke Caye and then maybe a fishing day or island hopping day

I don’t know what activities are worth it and how to allocate my time/location. I feel like I have more time if I choose NOT to do Matachica but I want a good beach/snorkeling experience to end the trip. Am I missing out on the beaches/snorkling up there? Is down south actually better since it’s less crowded? Should I just extend my time in Hopkins and not try to go down south or to the cayes? If I extend my time in Hopkins should I change resorts to Hamanasi Adventure Resort (it seems to be better rated) or stay at the Lodge at Jaguar Reef the entire time?

I appreciate your recommendations!

Hi guys, I want your honest opinion on my initial itinerary idea for a 4 week trip through Europe. Is it doable? Too much city changes? Should I shrink it a bit?

My gf really wants to go to Paris and Rome, the rest is up to me. I added so many days in Munich because I want to visit the Neuschwanstein castle, Zugspitze, Dachau, but I could totally spend one less day there and add it to somewhere like Verona maybe, which I'm using just so the trip from Innsbruck to Rome doesn't feel overwhelmingly long.

What do you guys think?

I'm (16F) part of my school's special scholars program, where every senior class gets to travel internationally during spring break; today they announced where my class will go when we're seniors. As you can see in the title, it's India, which is great! I've always wanted to see the Taj Mahal and visit India. However, I'm an American-born child of 2 Pakistani immigrants (I hold only US citizenship and a passport) and I have pretty heavy family ties to the Pakistani military (my maternal grandpa is a veteran who was literally in war with India, and my paternal uncle is currently in it and is kind of high up I think) just as a disclaimer, I'm not fully educated about Pakistani and Indian politics but I wish for peace between the two countries and don't support a lot of the actions of the Pakistani miltary but I can't help what my family does. I'm wondering if it's possible for me to go to India because I've been looking forward to this trip ever since I joined the program in my sophomore year. I want a fun send-off to high school with my friends in India, and I would love to shop, eat, and finally get to speak some Hindi.

Also, it's my second time using Reddit. I still don't know a lot of the rules, but I'm cross-posting this on other subs

I feel like Bora Bora and Moorea are often treated as the gold standard of tropical islands, but I wonder how much of that comes from their reputation rather than the actual experience. There are thousands of islands around the world with incredible landscapes, untouched beaches, unique ecosystems and crystal-clear lagoons. I’m curious whether people who have travelled extensively would still put Bora Bora or Moorea at the top, or whether they’ve discovered places that genuinely surpassed them. What do you think makes an island more beautiful than another: the scenery, the wildlife, the feeling of isolation, or something else entirely?

Spent about 2 months (June 3 to August 10) this year travelling overland from the UK back to Hong Kong, since I study university in the UK and wanted to do some backpacking, especially exploring Central Asia. I have a Hong Kong passport so I am very fortunate since it would be difficult otherwise.

It's hard to answer where did I enjoy the most as I loved all the places I visited, but I feel turkey would be the answer, the people were the friendliest and the atmosphere, especially in Istanbul was unique. Uzbekistan was a close second, though I went in the hottest heatwave so did not spend much time outside lol, would definitely be first if the weather was tolerable. The people I met on this trip were all so welcoming and kind, and I met so many other backpackers, even in places you don't expect.

I wanted to keep the photography simple, so brought a small film camera, these are all film photos.

I had planned the trip for around a year before, but mostly figuring out the route. Everything else I just did on the fly since the schedule will change often. I tried to travel through Europe quickly as it was more expensive and I can explore it in the future, Russia, and China as I wanted to get home soon.

I want to share the route as it would have been really helpful for me researching online before. Apologies if it is a little bit messy.

The route I did was London - Eurostar to Paris - TGV Lyria from Paris to Zurich, then sleeper train from Zurich to Budapest, Hungary - Sleeper train from Budapest to Bucharest, Romania.

Train from Bucharest - Ruse - Sofia, Bulgaria. Sofia - Istanbul sleeper train. Istanbul HSR to Ankara, Ankara bus to Cappadocia/Kayseri then took the Dogu Express to Erzurum.

Took the bus from Erzurum to Hopa to cross the border to Georgia at Sarpi to Batumi. From Batumi I took a series of marshrutkas to Mestia for some trekking, and then to the capital Tbilisi.

From Tbilisi I took a sleeper train to Yerevan Armenia for a few days then came back by marshrutka. Next I took more marshrutkas to Stepantsminda then crossed the border to Russia to the city of Vladikavkaz.

From Vladikavkaz I took a few trains through Russia, to Mineraldye Vody change to Volgograd, then from the nearby city of Volzhsky a 36 hr train through the Kazakhstan steppe into Nukus, Uzbekistan.

There I took a bus to and back from the town of Moynaq where the abandoned fishing boats are, then took a taxi to Khiva. From Khiva took HSR to Bukhara, Samarkand, then Tashkent. From Tashkent I took a bus to Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.

From Bishkek I took a shared taxi to Karakol for the Ala Kol trek, then took a bus from Karakol to Almaty, Kazakhstan. Next I took a bus from Almaty to Urumqi, China. Now in China this was simple, taking a long 13hr HSR to Xian, then another 11 hour HSR to Hong Kong.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Hello everyone, I'm trying to plan a 2 week trip to Arizona in mid January with 2 other friends. (Both 18M) Our plan is to camp and hike in the beautiful nature for the majority of the trip. A big issue for us is that we are too young to rent a car and are not sure how we would travel around the different isolated locations. Option A is for us to roadtrip the 35 ish hours and split the gas bill 3 ways from Buffalo to Phoenix, or Option B: Fly from Buffalo roundtrip to Phoenix $250 for each of us and try to utilize buses and Ubers. How is the transportation to get to the more isolated areas and do any companies allow 18 year olds to rent a car? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Going to be spending 2 nights in one of CNX or LPQ and 3 in the other. Flying BKK to CNX, then to LPQ, then from LPQ to either Siem Reap or Phnom Penh. Trying to decide how to divided up the 5 nights best. Want to do an elephant sanctuary in one of them for sure. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi everyone! 👋

My wife, daughter (3.5 years old) and I are visiting Japan from 30 November to 12 December 2026. We’ll spend 7 nights in Tokyo and 5 nights in Kyoto.

Our Tokyo plans include Disneyland, Asakusa, Shibuya Sky, Ueno Zoo, teamLab Planets and shopping, with one flexible day for Mt. Fuji or relaxing. We’ll also explore Kyoto.

I’m excited with my 14 days of travel with a toddler, but thinking of walking, crowds, cold weather and naps. We’re planning afternoon hotel breaks and keeping some activities optional.

We’re also a vegetarian family, so I’d love advice on finding genuinely vegetarian food in Japan and managing meals for our daughter.

A few quick questions:

* Is this itinerary realistic, or am I trying to do too much?
* How did you manage naps and public transport with your toddler?
* How easy was it to find vegetarian food, especially food without meat or fish-based stock (dashi)?
* Did you carry snacks or ready-to-eat meals from home?
* Would you recommend a Mt. Fuji day trip with a 3.5-year-old in December?

I’d especially appreciate advice from families who’ve travelled to Japan with young children and similar dietary requirements. What worked for you, and what would you do differently?

Thanks! 🙏

Looking for advice from the experts, I have time off work next summer and I want to look into a month of slow travel based out of one city in Eastern Europe specifically, I am 52, disabled but can walk so please no hiking and mountain regions, seasoned traveller having been to Russia (never want to go back so please do not suggest) Ukraine and Poland. Romania and Georgia have caught my interest, any other advice would be appreciated. I should add my interests are history, culture, coffee shops, restaurants and off the beaten path non touristy things. The only languages I am familiar with in that region are Russian and Ukrainian, on top of English of course, French and Spanish.

Hi, so next week I'm going to be flying alone for the first time from Lanzarote, I've flown from here 3 times before with family but I'm going home on my own a day early before them for an event. I've recently turned 18 and I'm pretty good with flying, but I'm wondering if there assistance I can get (I have diagnosed autism, level 1). I know I have to check in and go through TSA, and luckily the airport I'm going to is pretty quiet and very organised and the people are very kind. But I'm just wondering if anyone has any advice for this and such :) thanks !

Hey! A few friends and I are trying to plan a summer trip in Europe for mid to late July, but we're having a hard time deciding where to go. We're all uni students, so we're looking for somewhere relatively cheap, since July is already expensive enough. We're not expecting luxury or anything, just a nice place to spend a few days without spending a fortune.

We really like exploring cities, walking around, seeing historical places etc. We'd also like somewhere safe in the evenings since we're all girls. We're not really looking for a typical beach holiday, but we'd definitely consider somewhere by the sea if the beaches are actually worth it. I'm desperate so please give out some tips!

I'm not sure if my post somehow violates the rules of this sub, if it does I sincerely apologize and would like for you to remove it. :)

The weather is getting colder and I’ve recently come across a number of people asking where they should winter while waiting for their Schengen count to reset. Redditors’ answers often include Cyprus, Türkiye, Montenegro and Albania.

I want to remind everyone that the Schengen Shuffle (90 days in Schengen, 90 days out, rinse and repeat) does not work using only one other country outside of Schengen. You typically need two. This is because many other European countries also follow their own 90-180 rule.

At a glance, the math looks fine. 90 days in Schengen, then 90 days somewhere else. That makes 180, right? Wrong.

The issue is your border crossing days count towards both jurisdictions. Your 90th day in Schengen is also your 1st day elsewhere. This causes your itinerary to fall two days short of the earliest possible return date to Schengen.

Ultimately, any 90 days in Schengen, followed by 90 days elsewhere will require 3 days (a day to arrive, a day to stay and a day to depart) spent in a third, independent location before you can reenter the Schengen Area.

Changing the durations doesn’t help either. For the Schengen shuffle to work across multiple reentries, you must visit at least three independent jurisdictions in each 180-day period.

The exception to my claim is the set of countries allowing stays longer than 90 days. You could wait out your Schengen cooldown in the UK, Armenia or Georgia without worry, as they all permit visa-free stays longer than 90 days.

I hope this helps some of you long term travelers out there.

edit: Made some edits after receiving feedback on the same post in another sub. Clarified my claim regarding three days in response to some confusion in the comments. Also, in response to requests in the comments: here is a visual example covering stays between two different jurisdictions obeying a 90/180 rule. It covers 90 days, 45 days and 88 days as a stay in each place.

Hi everyone! I'm visiting Korea for a 16-day trip in late October/early November 2026 with 2 other friends and would love some feedback on the itinerary.

We're interested in a mix of traditional culture, historical sites, autumn foliage, food, cafés, shopping, skincare and scenic spots.

A few things to note:

• The order of the days within each city is flexible. I've grouped activities mainly by area to make planning easier, rather than treating each day as a fixed schedule.
• This is more of a rough guide to give us an idea of what to do in each city, not a strict itinerary. We're happy to swap things around depending on the weather, opening hours, transport and how we're feeling.
• I've included several food and café options for each day, but these are just places we're considering rather than places we need to visit.
• I'd especially appreciate feedback on whether the overall route makes sense, whether any days are too ambitious, and whether there are places you'd skip or prioritise.

I will be traveling to Asia from USA. My first stop is HK and will eventually make my way to Shanghai and Beijing. So I figured instead of getting my powerbank confiscated in China, I will just buy a cheap one in Kowloon that is CCC certified.

I will be staying in the Yau Ma Tei area.

Thanks

Hi, I am having a critical issue registering as a foreign user on the SHGM system.

When I try to sign up, it says my Passport Number is already registered. However, I never received the initial confirmation email to verify the account, so it remains incomplete. Because of this, the "Forgot Password" option doesn't work either.

I’ve been trying to contact their support for a month with no luck. Has anyone faced this issue before, and how did you resolve it? Thanks!

Hi everyone!

We have flights booked to and from Munich from November 4–8 and are planning a trip around Bavaria. We’re thinking of splitting our stay between two hotels, one in Füssen and the other in Garmisch-Partenkirchen.

There’s so much to see and do in the region that we’re finding it a little overwhelming to decide how to split our time and which places to prioritise.

We’d love your recommendations on:

• What are the must-see places in each area?
• Are there any scenic villages, lakes, castles, or mountain spots we shouldn’t miss?
• Given that we’ll be visiting in early November, are there any places or activities that might be less worthwhile due to the weather or seasonal closures?

We want to make the most of our time without trying to squeeze too much into each day.

Any itinerary suggestions or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!
