Kauai’s Stunning Na Pali Coastline Kauai, Hawaii One of the best ways to see the Hawaiian islands is by air, and a doors-off Kauai helicopter tour of the Na Pali coast is an epic aerial photography experience! If you don’t know by now, I absolutely love helicopters. In fact, I used to want to be a helicopter pilot as a kid (ok, maybe I still do) . So on our recent trip exploring the Hawaiian island of Kauai, I couldn’t pass up the chance to fly over the island’s famous Na Pali coastline in a helicopter! Soaring through the sky, hovering over landscapes, and able to take off and land almost anywhere — helicopters are super cool. While helicopter tours can be expensive, some places are just made to be photographed from a helicopter, like the Grand Canyon, New York City, and Cape Town for example. We decided to take a helicopter tour of Kauai with the doors off for an extra adrenaline rush! Table of Contents Kauai Helicopter Tour Guide Best He...

Undesirable news for travelers to Machu Picchu this week (I guess it depends on how you search at it however). Hefty rains in Peru have brought about widespread mudslides, one of which has blocked the train route from Cuzco to the well-known ruins. But not to be concerned, in accordance to reviews, the 2,000 or so who are stuck are going to be airlifted out by the country’s armed forces.

Although not as affordable as you’d count on ($80), there are options for setting up tent in the Caribbean as an option to large-price, resort accommodations, as Benji identified out here, specifically in St. John’s’ Maho and Cinnamon Bay campgrounds. And the idea’s not new: “But on St. John, the expansiveness of its Nationwide Park, which encompasses two-thirds of the island, and the problems of transporting developing supplies act as barriers against hungry hoteliers. By contrast, reduced-tech campsites are straightforward to construct, and in a few pockets of St. John’s nearly uninterrupted coastline, they have been plying a regular trade for decades.” For backlinks to the camps and concepts for consuming out, click by means of to the report.

As lots of of you knew, I was tentatively planning on heading out to Africa for a 14-day safari with a friend of the web site, Dan of Grass Track Safaris, but the timing ended up not doing work out so I had to go it alone. Anyway, Dan received back securely from the continent and had some time to put collectively some footage of what I missed out on. (He’s also beaten me to the punch by at least a number of weeks pertaining to an Africa travel video.) This clip follows the group as they head from Victoria Falls, by Chobe, and into the Okavango Delta. As far as wildlife goes, I have to say I’m specifically jealous of the fact that there’s not 1 but two shots of leopard (1:25 and 2:30) in the vid (I had zero on my safari). Also, great decision of Amadou & Mariam for the music in the background, by far my favorite blind duo musical act from Mali, and I do not say that really often.

Up at 6 once more this morning, for some purpose I’m acquiring up way earlier than I do when I’m not traveling. Possibly it has a little something to do with the truth that there’s almost nothing to do in Santa Marta after the sun goes down, and almost way also a lot to do when it comes up. Just after a cup of tinto and some fresh orange juice to get the day started off, I caught a minibus 10 minutes north by means of a windy road to the little fishing village of Taganga, identified as a laid-back fishing village and as a jumping-off stage to get to one of the most effective seashores in the region. Right after a failed try along a foot path to consider to reach Playa Grande, I backtracked to the village and employed a boat, which ended up being a great selection anyways since there’s not considerably coral at Playa Grande and the boat I rented took me to an outcove even further away from the beach with some wonderful coral. I have no strategy of the names of f...
