Solo Travel – 10 Reasons Not To Travel Alone

Solo travel is fashionable today. It is presented as the ultimate Nirvana. Solo travelers (real or fake) think of themselves as elite in a way, putting themselves above the mere mortal travelers who do not have the courage to travel alone. Magazines, especially those focused on women, are full of taboos associated with traveling solo. […] The post Solo Travel – 10 Reasons Not To Travel Alone appeared first on Inditales .

The 7 Best Hotels in London

Posted : 5/30/24 | May 30th, 2024 London is one of my favorite cities in the world. I’ve been visiting regularly since 2008 and never get tired of exploring the city. There are tons of amazing (and free) museums, a lively pub culture, and an incredible food scene that keeps me coming back for seconds. But as much as I love the city, it’s very spread out. The neighborhood you stay in (and the hotel you pick) will greatly impact your trip. And, as one of Europe’s most visited cities, there are a ton of hotels to choose from here. It’s almost overwhelming. To ensure you pick a great hotel, here’s my list of the best hotels in London. They’re the places I stay at when I visit so you know they’re worth your money! 1. Citadines Barbican London Located close to the train station in the heart of the city, I think this four-star hotel offers excellent value for its location. The hotel has both classic rooms as well as apartment-style rooms with kitchens that are perfect for groups or fa

Freely Travel Insurance Review

Posted 5/24/24 | May 24th, 2024 I never leave home without travel insurance. After over 15 years on the road, I’ve learned firsthand how important it is. Not only has it helped me deal with lost luggage, canceled flights, and medical emergencies, but it’s helped countless friends and readers of my blog too. However, travel insurance is a boring topic to read about. Nobody likes comparing plans and reading policies. Myself included. It’s the least exciting part of trip planning. Fortunately, it’s never been easier to find a plan and policy that suits your needs and budget. More and more companies are making it fast and simple to get a quote, sign up for a plan, read the fine print, and make a claim. One of those companies is Freely .   What is Freely? Freely is a travel insurance company and safety app. Like many insurance companies, it provides coverage so you can be made whole should something happen (for a covered reason) while you’re on the road. Its base plan includes al

The Best Walking Tours in Bologna

Posted : 5/28/24 | May 28th, 2024 Located in Northern Italy, Bologna is considered one of the food capitals of Italy . And given Italy’s culinary reputation, that must be saying something. Food is what draws most visitors here ( it’s what drew me there ). I had heard it’s the place for foodies in Italy and I was not disappointed. Unsurprisingly, there are lots of amazing food tours here that allow you to eat your way around town while learning about the region’s traditional cuisine. There are also wine tours galore plus plenty of history-oriented tours to ensure you learn about this food-centric city’s past. In short, Bologna is the perfect place to take a walking tour. And, since I love walking tours of all kind, I took a bunch while I was in town. Some were great, some were ok, some where terrible . Here’s the best walking tours I took in Bologna to help you plan your visit: Best Overall Tour Learn More Take Walks Take Walks is my go-to tour company in Italy, offering

10 Scotland Road Trip Tips You Need to Know Before You Go

Posted : 5/23/2024 | May 23rd, 2024 Scotland is a rugged and beautiful country that’s perfect for exploring on a road trip. The craggy coasts, placid lochs, and rolling hills make it a dream to discover. There are countless historic castles, iconic distilleries, and postcard-perfect islands at your fingertips. I absolutely love Scotland. It’s stunningly beautiful and I can never get enough of the countless changing landscapes, Scotch distilleries, and warm, welcoming locals. Having been to Scotland over a handful of times in the last decade, I think taking a road trip is the best way to explore the country. Home to just 5.5 million people, it’s a sparsely populated land, so much of your driving here will be out in the countryside. The country is just built for it. But there are still a few things to keep in mind before you depart. Here are 10 Scotland road-trip tips (plus my favorite routes) to help make your drive better, safer, and more fun (based on my experience at least):

Agroha Dham – The Ancestral Place of Agarwal Community

Agroha is the place where I would trace my origins to. This is the place where our ancestor Maharaja Agrasen ruled from. However, it took me discovering many historical places in India before I reached Agroha on a cold January evening. Brief History of Agroha Maharaja Agrasen was a Kshatriya of Suryavamsha or the solar […] The post Agroha Dham – The Ancestral Place of Agarwal Community appeared first on Inditales .

The 6 Best Hotels in Toronto

Posted : 5/20/24 | May 20th, 2024 Toronto is a sprawling metropolis known for its diversity. Over half of the city’s residents were born outside of the country, making it one of the most multicultural cities in the world. There’s not just a Chinatown and Little Italy here, but also a Greektown, Koreatown, Little India, Little Poland, Little Portugal, and even Little Malta! Toronto also boasts iconic landmarks like the CN Tower (one of the tallest free-standing structures in the world), an expansive waterfront, and an endless array of museums. There’s tons of amazing food here too. I never get bored when I visit. I’ve been to Toronto a lot over the years (it’s a short flight from where I grew up). The city is big, spread out, and has a ton of hotels to choose from. But I know from experience that not all of them are great. So, to help you have fun, save money, and enjoy the city, here’s my list of the best hotels in Toronto: 1. Ace Hotel This four-star hotel is in the Garment Di

Where to Stay in San Francisco: The Best Neighborhoods for Your Visit

Posted: 5/16/24 | May 16th, 2024 I love visiting San Francisco . It boasts amazing food (especially in Chinatown, Japantown, and the Mission), lots of gorgeous hiking trails, and plenty of top-notch attractions that make passing the time here a breeze (don’t miss visiting Alcatraz during your visit!). While it’s not very big, choosing the right neighborhood to stay in can greatly impact your visit. Each area of the city is very different and it can take some time to get around town, so you’ll want to stay close to the activities and attractions that appeal to you. Plus, some areas are safer than others. San Francisco has a large community of unhoused people (particularly in the Tenderloin and parts of the Mission), which some visitors may be unused to encountering. So, to help you have fun and stay safe, I want to break down the best neighborhoods in San Francisco and the best places to stay in each, so you can pick the ideal accommodation.
