Inspiration booklet
Architecture, cuisine, great landscapes or tropical fauna: start from what really attracts you. These four destinations with different atmospheres help you choose before comparing.
New guides
These destinations require different choices: a neighborhood and a subway in Hong Kong, margins between islands in Vanuatu, or a precise check of areas and roads in Armenia. Each sheet links the possible steps to the constraints that really change the journey.
CaribbeanJamaicaJamaica is discovered beyond the beaches. Kingston, the eastern mountains and coastal stations require separate routes: it is better to choose two bases than to cross the island every day.

East AsiaHong KongHong Kong combines dense neighborhoods, ferry crossings and public transport trails. To enjoy it, choose a base close to the metro and alternate urban days and exits to the islands.
Prepare this trip →
CaucasusArmeniaA base in Yerevan opens up access to several heritage sites, but mountain areas require more time. The situation in the border areas must guide the route before any reservation.
Prepare this trip →
East AfricaRwandaIn Rwanda, nature experiences are planned around permits, the availability of guides and journeys. Kigali serves as a starting point; then choose one or two sectors rather than too dense a circuit.
Prepare this trip →
West AfricaGhanaGhana brings together urban life, coastal history and Ashanti culture. A first route is better to concentrate on the south: distances and the security situation require precise preparation.
Prepare this trip →
Central AsiaKyrgyzstanKyrgyzstan is attracted to its mountains and lakes. A first loop around Bishkek and d-Issyk-Koul allows you to limit long tracks and set aside time for walks and encounters.
Prepare this trip →
Central AmericaNicaraguaGranada and León give two entrances to the heritage and volcanic landscapes. The journey to the coast or islands greatly changes the length of the trip: select an extension adapted to local conditions.
Prepare this trip →
Oceania · PacificVanuatuA journey to Vanuatu is built island by island. Inland flights and boats, weather and distance count more than kilometres: choose a few stops and keep a margin before the international return.

Explore this folder →Select a region
First choose a type of stay and a duration, then compare access, season and cost on site.
For three to five days, choose a city accessible by train or direct flight and a single base. For a week or more, add a near region rather than a series of capitals. Compare door to door travel, public holidays, train schedules and parking charges.
Explore Italy →Between cities, parks and islands, domestic flights and transfers can consume entire days. Build a route around one or two regions, keep a margin at the connections and check the season for each coast.
Explore Costa Rica →A fast train, a regional flight or a ferry do not require the same preparation. First decide which steps are easily connected, then choose your accommodation. The monsoons, hot heat and parties sometimes vary from region to region.
Explore Japan →Safari, desert, city or island: the right pace often depends on the road, the guides and the transfers. Compare meals, entrances to parks and vehicles. Confirm the official advice and sanitary conditions before departure.
Explore Botswana →The weather and frequency of flights or ferries often determine the route. Avoid international correspondence too close to an island transfer. For a long trip, choose a few bases and check the cost of luggage, meals and local travel.

Are you still not sure? Start with a region, then compare the usual weather, travel time, time lag, formalities and cost of living. A successful destination is primarily a destination adapted to the season and your way of travelling.
No destination found. Try the name of a country or a wider region.
Choose Well
Check temperatures, rains, events and crowds at your dates. An ideal period can be more expensive and frequented; an intermediate season can offer a good balance, provided that it accepts less predictable weather.
Compare direct flights, stopovers, time lag and transfer time to accommodation. For a short stay, a simple journey can be more enjoyable than a distant destination reached after several connections.
Add accommodation, meals, local transportation, tours, formalities and insurance to the ticket price. Also keep a margin for unforeseen expenses and exchange rate changes.
Photographs and heritage
sourcing facts, credit photos and tips for building a visit. Discover twenty fact sheets that extend country guides.
Culture · Paris, Île-de-France
The Parisian shores connect monuments of different periods in the same urban landscape. For a first discovery, choose a portion of the river and an inside visit rather than wanting to enter anywhere in a day.

Machu Picchu brings together an inca heritage and a mountain environment. The organization must start from the authorized route and from the confirmed access, then integrate the return and sufficient margin into the stay in Peru.

Angkor is a vast archaeological complex. A useful visit distinguishes temples, journeys and breaks, instead of accumulating stops to reproduce the same photographs.
