Hiking

tarvel guru branding

What do you love most about Nepal?

"The hikes! There is an endless number of the most magnificent hikes in Nepal, owing to its connection to the Himalayas. A hiker's paradise!"

@dyl.shaw's Top Tips

"Be patient and listen to your body when hiking at altitudes. People will feel the effects of attitude differently. So it's important to take your time when you feel lethargic. Enjoy the views instead!"

Benefits of a tour guide for Nepal

"Most guides for hiking tours are local Sherpas, who will have expert knowledge and insights into the history of the region. The price you pay also goes back to them, supporting local communities."

Northern Lights

tarvel guru branding

Favourite time of year to visit Lapland

"Lapland is beautiful throughout the year, but the best chance to experience the northern lights is from September to April when it’s dark enough."

Where to stay?

"There are plenty of accommodations in Lapland, from hotels to cute cottages, but one quite unique experience is staying in a glass igloo!"

Benefits of a tour guide for Lapland

"You might be lucky enough to experience the northern lights from the comfort of your own cabin, but there are also plenty of tour guides who can take you to the best spots to witness the phenomenon."

@ulrika.wanderwoman's Top Tips

"You don’t need to stay awake the whole night, but the northern lights are usually seen some hours before and after midnight. Many hotels have also wake-up services for the northern lights."

@ulrika.wanderwoman's Top Tips

"Remember that it’s never 100% guaranteed to see the northern lights, as it’s a natural phenomenon and the sky must be dark and clear. Fortunately, there are plenty of other things to do in Lapland."

A 'MUST' whilst you're there?

"Besides the northern lights tours, you can also go skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing and take husky & reindeer rides."

Must pack items for Lapland

"Especially around New Year’s, it can be extremely cold in Lapland, even -30 Celsius degrees. So remember to bring warm clothes and a lot of layers!"

History

tarvel guru branding

Why is Nuremberg the most underrated city in Germany?

"I LOVE Nuremberg. It's a city that doesn't get the attention it deserves. From the medieval houses and museums to being a pivotal city during WW2, it's a history lover's dream. It's gorgeous and full of culture."

A 'MUST' whilst you're there?

"Head to the Documentation Centre Museum. Former home of the Nazi rally grounds, it now serves as a reminder of "Never Again" when you see the terror and scale of Hitler's cruel ideologies."

A perfect day in Nuremberg?

"Spend the morning touring the Rally Grounds, try Nuremberg sausages for lunch and then head up to the castle for panoramic views of the whole city! "

@Amyscphotos's Top Tips

"Get lost by wandering the city. Nuremberg is a medieval city and has preserved it well. From traditional houses, medieval bridges and cobbled streets, it's exactly how you picture traditional Germany!"

Favourite time of year to visit Nuremberg

"Nuremberg is home to the world's oldest Christmas market! Plus when you're too cold from wandering the stalls, you can dive into one of the many museums or restaurants to warm up!"

"Explore one of the best sights in all of South America – Machu Picchu is one of the seven wonders of the modern world."

Benefits of a tour guide for Machu Picchu

"A lot of solo travellers just like me who showed up at the entrance without a guide. Don’t be shy and make friends and hire a guide together. Guided tour lasted about 3hrs depending which circuit. "

What do you love most about Machu Picchu?

"The fascinating history, extraordinary architectural works of Incas and spectacular scenery. Machu Picchu on a clear day is breathtaking."
