30 of the Best Cities to Visit in Germany

Germany is a large and beautiful country with so much to see and do. So which are the best cities to visit in Germany? I’ve asked my fellow travel bloggers their best cities to visit in Germany and I’ve added my favorites. My top 4 are Hamburg, Cologne, Rothenburg ob der Tauber and Füssen. I’ve fallen in love with Hamburg, and we have family living close-by, in Norderstedt. Paul proposed to me in Cologne. Rothenburg is such a dreamy city and has a Christmas museum. Füssen is high on my list because of the beautiful castles. But there are many more special cities in Germany as you can see for yourself in this blog.

Füssen is a city in the South of Germany on the border with Austria. It’s famous for the beautiful Neuschwanstein castle and is located at the end of the Romantische strasse.

Although Neuschwanstein castle is technically in the nearby town of of Schwangau, just like the less famous, but equally mesmerizing Hohenschwangau castle, people mention Füssen when visiting either of these castles. Both are on the list of most beautiful fairytale castles in Germany.

The Romantische Straße or Romantic Road starts at Würzburg and is a fairytale route that meanders through medieval towns ending in Füssen, where the fairytale castles of Neuschwanstein and Hoh[……]

Rio de Janeiro is definitely one of the best places where to begin such an adventure. Rio is renowned for its wild Carnival parties, breathtaking panoramic views and fun-loving Carioca people. Beside the beautiful beaches and natural wonders, here you will have the opportunity to learn about true Brazilian society by taking a tour into one of its favelas, and have a close-up look at the complex architecture, developing commerce and warm friendly people.

How To Plan The Perfect Singapore Family Holiday

sx2k7
There’s something so comforting about stepping off the plane into the brown tones of Singapore Changi airport. I couldn’t even count how many hours I’ve spent in that airport in my life so far, and there’s a reason why it’s consistently ranked the best airport in the world. But more than that, stepping foot in Changi means (if you’re lucky) the opportunity to enjoy a Singapore holiday.

Working in travel I used to hear all the time “meh, Singapore is so boring.” This perception that it’s tame, bland and uninspiring was really pervasive in the tourism industry (in my experience anyway). And I always delighted in the challenge of changing someone’s mind. Because to me, Singapore is absolutely full of excitement and adventure.

On our Malaysia and Singapore holiday, I really would have liked to spend more time in Singapore. Alas, we were really restricted with available days. I’m still so glad we made it happen though because we got to show our kids the wonder of Singapore. And now they want to go back as much as we do.

So here are our tips for planning the perfect family holiday to Singapore. I hope this helps you to plan your own Singapore holiday!

Singapore is one of the best-connected cities in the world (and with the best airport, as mentioned above). This means there will likely be available flights to Singapore from your closest international hub. Flights take approximately 8-9 hours from the east coast of Australia, 18 hours from Los Angeles, 10-14 hours from various[……]

Diversity. This is the first thing that hits you when you start reading about Malaysia. Mixed cultures, languages and religions, vibrant cities and remote jungles, modern skyscrapers and UNESCO historical sites, beautiful beaches and wildlife-packed rainforests…Not to mention the variety of delectable food. Sounds like Malaysia in fact has it all.

Having not been to any other Asian country before, I can’t really vouch for a very popular Malaysian slogan: “Malaysia truly Asia”, but choosing it as my first Asian country to visit was definitely the best decision. Being one of the most developed countries in South East Asia and keeping its rich tradition and culture at the same time, Malaysia delivers a wealth of unique experiences.

Top 37 Hidden Tourist Spots in the Philippines Travel Pros Rave About

Danjugan Island 1/37Cauayan, Negros Occidental (Check available Flights and Hotels)

Yoshke Dimen and Vins Carlos of The Poor Traveler say- “Danjugan Island is a rainforest-covered island and rich marine sanctuary that can be reached after a 4-hour drive from Bacolod and a 30-minute boat ride from mainland Cauayan. The island has five lagoons, two of which you can explore by kayak. Since it’s a protected area, fishing is not allowed here, allowing marine life to explode in full color. The best part is, you don’t need to be a scuba diver to enjoy it, you can simply do so by snorkeling. There you can see the bluest giant clams, humongous table corals, and all sorts of fish including juvenile black-tip sharks (if your timing is right). Danjugan Island can accept only a handful of guests per day – this ensures that the island’s pristine conditions will remain so for a long time.”

Cartagena: The Miami of Colombia

I knew that when planning my trip, I wanted to get at least a quick glimpse of the Caribbean coast, as it differs so greatly from the rest of the country. And I’m so glad I did, despite the weather so hot it left me breathless and the struggle to get there.

The journey to Colombia didn’t exactly go as planned when our evening flight was canceled in favor of one the following morning. This meant we missed our flight and had to rebook one and then another. After many hours in the Bogota airport, we finally made it to Cartagena in the late afternoon.

buaah
We checked into our room at Casa Zahiri and immediately left to find one of the many street bars within Getsemani for a much-needed mojito. Exhausted from an unexpected two days of travel, it was all I could do to keep my eyes open and not be overwhelmed by the music and movement of weekend revelers. Returning to our room, I didn’t make it long before passing out in my bunk.

Door knockers of Cartagena

The next morning, feeling rested, Sammi and I went in search of the most important thing: coffee. We ended up at Libertario Coffee Roasters, a very trendy coffee shop, for cold brew and avocado toast. We weren’t the only ones there as fellow travelers and locals had set up their laptops as a makeshift coworking space.

We took the time to walk around the city without a real plan, stopping to snap photos of the many murals as well as the kite festival going on outside the walls. We passed the house of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, whose[……]
