The last time I travelled abroad (granted it was 3 years ago, and it was to Europe) I found using email at internet cafes was a lot easier than international phone cards. Are there convenient internet cafes in Auckland and the other cities/tourist towns we stop in? I’m not looking for email every day, more as a way to let folks back home know I’m still alive and that my parachute deployed properly when I went skydiving.

Hello!
I am thinking about doing the 21 Days Camping Trip that starts in London and ends in Athens sometime in June. Has anyone else done that or thinking about doing it? I looked back in the fourm but didn’t find anything that wasn’t from a very years ago. Anyone done this or any of the camping trips?

Hi
Travelling to Canada from December through to Christmas. Vancouver, Whistler, Jasper, Lake Louise, Banff, Calgary and then across to Toronto.
I hear it’s very very cold at this time of the year but it sets up great opportunities for skiing, snowboarding, and other great activities that i’m looking forward to trying for the first time. Any suggestions as to the best activities that are on offer?
I’m staying in hostels throughout this time and i’m aware of activities they run each day.
I’m very excited!
Would appreciate any suggestions of places to visit, adventures that are a ‘must’, etc and at the same time money and clothing required for the duration of my stay.
Cheers

My friend and I are doing the London/Paris excursion March 9-16 and are scheduled to land at 10:35 PM at Heathrow. We’d like to get to our hostel in Picadilly as cheaply as possible but the last Tube leaves at 11:45. Do you think we’ll get through everything in an hour at that time of night?

Hi all
I’m a kiwi living in London and am heading back home around the beginning of November next year for my sister’s wedding. I am thinking of doing a tour around oz before heading to NZ. What would you suggest to be the best tour of Australia for what you get for your money. I’ve been to Sydney, Melbourne and the Gold Coast but don’t mind going there again if need be.
Thanks
Jess

Hi Guys,
A friend and I are doing the European Inspiration tour next January. We were looking for advice on which of the optional activities are worth doing and which ones are missable.
Thanks,

Hi
So im really wanting to go to europe next year, maybe around may and i was surprised by the price difference of the Concept to the Time Out. I was hoping on some feedback as to if people have experienced them both and if they had a preference. Or also any advice because i’ve decided to go alone 
oooh and with the Concept what is the “Food fund”? Im confused is that extra money to spend on food??
Any help would be great.
Thanks

has anyone been on this or heard anything about it? i really would love to go on this tour and the rainforests and reefs. i may skip the r&r one though since im going to get one of those backpacking bus passes. it just sounds like a lot of fun to hang out with the same group for awhile and really get to know people. this summer i went to ireland and scotland by way of a paddywagon and haggis tour. met so many cool and nice people. most of them were ozzies, truely the GREATEST and friendliest people i have ever met.

Hello,
My boyfriend and I are looking into doing the “European Horizon” package in July, and were hoping for some useful information. This would be our first time ever visiting Europe… so obviously we have no idea what to expect. To anyone who has already been… or gone on this trip, could we please have your advice
- Exactly how light do you have to pack? Are we able to bring dress clothes, along with track pants, etc?
- Do we carry our luggage with us everywhere… or does it stay at the hostel/hotel?
- What’s the scoop with hairblowers, hair straighteners?
- The trip starts in London… I would assume we have to buy our place tickets separately?
- Is it very expensive if so
- How long does it take to fly there from Toronto, Canada??
- Does it rain much?
Any vital information would be much appreciated. Thank you kindly!!!!

Hi There – my name is Connie ….I’m planning to do the B&R tour in Oct.
I’m trying to figure out which city to start the tour from……looking for any comments/advice
I have read on these message boards in both favour…..
Start in Cairns…and then by the time you reach Sydney you have new friends to tour Sydney with.
Start in Sydney where everyone is a newbie on day one vs. Cairns – I assume a tour is in progress by the time it stops in Cairns and then new people are picked up there?
Decisions Decisons
