Travel in the Americas

Orlando is absolutely stuffed with theme parks and attractions, most people come for the big established players, Disney, Universal, and Seaworld, but there are a lot of other theme parks in the Orlando area. Legoland Florida is a relatively new big-name amongst the Florida theme parks. We went to check it out for the first …

Everyone comes to Orlando for the theme parks, right? But there is so much more to Orlando beside thrill rides and Micky Mouse. We look at things to do in Orlando Florida for families, with kids or teenagers, that will be fun and maybe even educational. Orlando, and Florida, is one of our favourite places …

All of our USA content in one USA travel blog page, jump to the USA destination you need. We’ve visited the US several times to create our USA travel blog section, both before we had children and after. Our usual style is to road trip our way around the states and we’ve covered some big …

Cuba is changing. The decades-old American embargo is being relaxed this year, and a 2010 government decree is allowing private restaurateurs to open enterprising eateries across the island. The changes are sparking curiosity in travellers across the world.Cuba features numerous family friendly resorts and welcomes cruise ship visits from seniors, so the island clearly offers activities …

Park City, Utah, USA is stuffed with family friendly things to do and activities, making it a great stop on your road trip or a vacation or weekend destination for you and the kids. After finding out about Park City, Utah, I can tell you that it will most certainly be on our next US …

The number of US States we’ve visited is pretty meagre by a lot of travellers’ standards, I guess that’s common for those of us based in Australia and the UK. I believe it’s something we should all try and put right! We adored our USA road trip in 2014, we discovered that the United States …

We left home with a vague plan to backpack our way around Asia for as many years as possible, with two kids and a tight budget. Well, plans change, life happens and the universe sometimes points you in directions you never anticipated. We never expected to take a cruise, ever, let alone a bargain trans …

It seems so long ago now! On our first night in Lancaster county PA, in some nondescript but friendly motel, we were just settling down for the night when we hear a bellow from the next room: “Get yourself in that tub or I’ll be opening a can of Whoop-Ass on y’all!” We didn’t think …

Let’s rewind 2 months to our last night in the Americas. Dinner on Key Largo was a treat for us, a farewell to Florida, a state we love on so many levels and the last night of our Canada to the Keys road trip before we boarded our cruise back to Europe. That one meal outlived …

Why visit Hawaii? Well why not? Here we are in London, loving everything the capital has to offer, but still, the dreams and the plans are with us and as strong as always. We’re slowly stashing away the travel bucks and getting ready to spend them next year, but where, where will we go next? …

Since I was a kid watching wildlife shows on TV, I’ve wanted to take an airboat ride in the Everglades, yet for some reason, despite visiting Florida before, I’d never done it. We usually head to Florida for the Disney parks, we’ve been 3 times now and loved every visit, (check out how we visited all …

I’m no princess. I’ve travelled on night buses many times. We take them as often as we can, it saves us paying for one night of accommodation but the night bus from Flores to Guatemala city was not my favourite, that being said, on a global scale, it’s not a bad bus at all, there …
