Shopping in Europe can be fun, but don't let it overwhelm your trip. On one guided tour of the British Houses of Parliament I saw half the group skip out on the tour to survey an enticing array of plastic "bobby" hats, Big Ben briefs, and Union Jack panties instead. Focus on local experiences, and don't let your trip become a glorified shopping spree. As a fanatic about packing light, I used to wait until the end of my trip […]
Smartly situated Lyon — just south of Burgundy, north of Provence, east of the Alps, and centered on a peninsula at the convergence of two major rivers — has long been a major culture hub. But its enjoyable cityscape is refreshingly untouristy, despite its welcoming old town, classy shops, worthwhile museums, and renowned cuisine. Just two hours from Paris by train, Lyon makes an easy one- or two-night stopover. Lyon's sights are concentrated in three areas: historic Vieux Lyon (the […]
France has a rich history, an impressive infrastructure, and a tourism industry trying valiantly to cope with its big crowds. Travelers who plan ahead enjoy big rewards. Paris' most famous landmark, the Eiffel Tower, has a new look. A glass wall now rings its base for security reasons, with one access point at each side, meaning you can no longer wander freely under the tower. Visitors should allow an extra 30 minutes to go through screening. Also, summit tickets for the […]
Scotland's islands may be at this northern nation's distant fringes, but those who venture to them are richly rewarded with dramatic landscapes, a taste of each island's rich heritage, and warm welcomes. Among Scotland's countless islands, the favorite among travelers is the scenic Isle of Skye, where fun-to-drive mountain roads weave among grassy slopes and rocky ridges. Just off Scotland's northwest coast, Skye is the country's second-biggest island (it takes about two hours to drive it from south to north). […]
In my early days as a guidebook writer, Europe's undiscovered nooks and undeveloped crannies held the most appeal for me — and they still do. But with ever more sophisticated travelers armed with enough time and money to see the Europe of their dreams, places I "discovered" a few decades ago are now suffering from "Back Door" congestion. Given that, I've come to treasure even more those destinations that still have the feeling of being a world apart from everyday […]
Eating in Germany is a big part of the fun of traveling there. Ingredients are wonderful (especially if you eat with the season), traditions are prized, "modern German cuisine" is giving old dishes tasty and entertaining new twists, and small, creative foodie places are thriving in every city. And here's even more good news: Eating well in Germany is an amazing value — cheaper than in France, Britain, Italy, or Scandinavia. Get ready for surprises on the menu. Even in […]
England's best city within two hours of London is beautiful, historic Bath. The city is popular and expensive, but it's a joy to visit. And rather than deal with London's intensity right off the bat, I like to take the train from the airport to London's Paddington Station and then hop on a connection to this more relaxed and elegant example of urban England. Bath was a joy even in ancient Roman times, when patricians soaked in the city's mineral […]
