Hi Pheymont I wouldn't worry about the wine and tapas portion. Things are really inexpensive her, and the tapas has been universally good. It's easy to get three or four tapas to share and a couple of glasses of wine for 15 Euro. As for the tours, we didn't take any, but I think for one day in Cordoba it would be a good idea because I think that day may feel really busy. For Sevilla, I have a mixed opinion, I really love to wonder around, get lost and then navigate my way out...but thats...

I generally can sleep pretty soundly if I'm exhausted, but must admit that trying to do so in an economy class seat can be challenging.   Besides the narrow seats and limited legroom, my head keeps flopping about.  Those rounded neck pillows...

I enjoy a nice hike, but I don't like hikes that scare me.... so this one isn't for me. I recently read about Spain's most dangerous hike . High in the Andalusian Mountains, el Caminito del Rey. The path zigzags over the Garganta del Chorro gorge, hugging the precipitous cliff face 350-feet above the Guadalhorce River that carved out the narrow stone corridor. What's the hike like? Check out these sample images, courtesy iExplore.com. Click on the above link to see and learn more, in case...

I have an affinity with the Maltese islands . The fact that I was born there may have something to do it, but, as I have lived most of my life in Australia, the distance between the 2 countries has made this affinity more special. I was constantly reading about it and wanted to know more. I returned there many times for short holidays, and my fondness grew with each subsequent visit. Sliema Waterfront I am now a permanent resident of the country, and, while I may seem biased towards it, it’s...

Lots of unexpected things can happen when you're traveling, but the thing you nearly always can expect is good and helpful people. We've experienced that a lit in years of travel, but today was a special example. We were switching from one city to another, and not only had luggage with us but a wheelchair. We were waiting outside the apartment where we had been staying, and our taxi had not come. We asked a young couple who were leaving with their van if they could call the taxi company for...

Cruise lines sell the chance to see Arctic wildlife and claim they can do so without causing harm. However, many Inuit and other indigenous people who have inhabited the Arctic for millennia are deeply worried. Tourists buy souvenirs and bring income but also a growing threat of sewage and heavy fuel oil pollution as well as the disturbance and destruction of wildlife, such as ships striking whales in narrow channels. Shrinking sea ice is allowing larger cruise ships to venture farther into...

PHeymont, be forewarned that the pickpockets will see these unless you have your shirt hanging over your belt. A friend of mine had the belt loop of his hidden money pouch of this style 99% cut thru by a razor in Rome (he was completely unaware of it, but aware that someone was trailing him). Fortunately the 1% that didn't get cut kept the belt in place, but it was a narrow miss and he would have been out $1500 and his credit cards.
