Did you know that you can save money while travelling? The following are some of the tips:
The flight comparison sites take off the hassle of going to every airline website. Websites like Kayak, Momondo, Skyscanner and Google Flights are great for comparing flight options and finding deals.
They allow you to book flights, hotels and car hire, often giving extra discounts if you combine them.
To add on that, direct flights are typically much more expensive than flights with a stop over or connection. Extra hours of travel time could equal some savings on your ticket price.
Whether it’s doing our holiday shopping or preparing for a vacation, we hold it off until the very last minute. Unfortunately, this could run you into headaches, expenses and other problems.
It’s true that there are sometimes amazing last minute travel deals, but in general you’ll save a lot of money by booking in advance. In fact, if you leave it till the last minute, the flight costs are often sky high. But if you plan ahead and book the right way, the savings can soar.

To begin exploring Paris, we decided to take a boat tour along River Seine that is in the heart of Paris.

Paris has 37 bridges. My most memorable experience in this one (more…)
One of the highlights of our trip to Kenya, was going on a safari to Tsavo East National Park.
It is one of the oldest parks in Kenya. This park is located in the South East of Kenya near the town of Voi in the Taita-Taveta District of Coast Province.
Tsavo East National Park is one of the largest national parks in Kenya that covers 13,747 square kilometres.
Tsavo East National Park is a home to the Big 5 (buffalo, elephant, lion, rhinoceros and leopard).
There are also diverse Kenyan wild animals which includes the large families of giraffes, gazelles, hartebeests and zebras. Indeed, this is what takes the majority of tourists to Tsavo East National Park .
For us, the main reason why we chose it, was its close proximity to the North Coast beaches. It is close by other tourist attractions around Kenyan coast region.
Certainly, Tsavo East National Park is an ideal safari destination for those who would like to combine a beach holiday and a safari!

First and foremost, for the last few months, we have been avoiding the bucket list approach to our travels. The reasons behind this are:
Indeed, travel isn’t all about checking off the bucket list, the experiences help in self empowerment and also making memories. To be honest, the Strepy-Thieu Funicular Boat Lift is one of those things that absolutely was never in my bucket list. But after our adventure, I think that it’s an absolute must see if you are travelling through Belgium. It’s definitely a tourist attraction in its own right!
