A flight to the Maldives can take from several hours to a day. Travel time and cost depends on where you are going to the islands from. The hassle of flights and transfers is compensated by the ease of obtaining a visa and a 100% paradise vacation that awaits you ahead. Trips to the Maldives are organized by many operators and agencies, but we turned to a company that has been on the market for exotic islands for more than 8 years - wiotto.com.

There's nothing quite like going somewhere new with a complete clean slate. Other than maybe a few searches on Instagram to see what photos people have taken and shared in that location, everywhere you look is fresh and brand new. But where to start? You may be aware of some of the most iconic sights. You may have done a ton of research. But there really is no better place to start than with a walking tour. In fact, it should be on everyone's itinerary when exploring a new

The City of Tokyo, which already had more Michelin Stars than any other city in the world, was awarded top honors in 2017, not just for its food, but for overall livability and once-in-a-lifetime experiences!

When you are a first-time visitor with plans of many things to do in Italy, exploring its greatest cities can be quite an overwhelming task. Although the chaos is definitely part of the journey’s charm, it could also sometimes be considered a major drawback for visitors who would want to explore as much as possible in the least amount of time. While the Eternal City of Rome is a top choice on every first-timer’s Italy trip planner, exploring it on a short stay becomes tedious if you don’t pick t

My mother is a great Ernest Hemingway fan.  Her favorite book of all time is The Sun Also Rises. When I found out he was born and raised in Oak Park, IL, I thought she might enjoy a trip to the Ernest Hemingway museum and his birthplace. So my aunt, my mom and I took a field trip. It turned out to be better than we expected.

Only about a 45 minute drive from where we live, we were lucky enough to find parking right across the street. The museum is housed in a former Church – an imposing structu

Theme parks are a natural fit for Halloween festivities: On a certain level, you might say it's always a Halloween party at theme parks - plus, most of the rides are already designed to scare the living daylights out of you. In October (and sometimes even earlier), some of theme parks have gently scary daytime Halloween events for kids as well as night terrors for teens and adults. Here's a (non-exhaustive) sampling from across the world (and keep in mind, for

There are many great cities in the world either on or near rivers. During my lifetime of travel, I have had the pleasure to visit the many picturesque cities situated on winding rivers. Here are my favorite cities to visit on a River. The cities and the rivers that define them. Because these rivers lends charm, ambiance and culture, and provide the rhythm and soul to these ten out of this world cities.

Yesterday was a special occasion for me – no, not so much the Rapture but a relationship anniversary – though I will admit that in a bizarre way all that ruckus had made me feel like flying up to my old and still occasional New York City stomping grounds to camp it up with Harold Camping's kooky kultists in Times Square. But I'd recently had surgery and am grounded in my current home base of Miami for the moment. So here we were at the appointed time at a fancyish downtown fish joint called The

If you’re traveling in a wheelchair, getting around at your destination is a major concern. Yes, there are companies like Wheelchair Getaways that provide wheelchair accessible van rentals but they run around $100 a day, plus tax and mileage.

Luckily, one option is becoming more common in increasing areas of the world…accessible public transportation.

Here in the U.S., the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that new public transit be made accessible and older transit choices be adapted
