Travel advice - 2 weeks, ?1000, 3 girls, where to go?


Recommended Posts

I went to Tunisia a few times 20 odd years ago and there was a few occasions where I was uncomfortably hassled. However, I was in Morocco last February with my very striking blonde, blue eyed daughter and apart from the few whistles etc we weren't hassled to an uncomfortable level at all. Marekesh is wonderful and a trip to the atlas mountains is a must.

Morrocco will be too hot if you go towards the desert, believe me I was there a year ago at the of May. May be OK on the coast and Marakech is managable. Didn't find the hassle that others report though, and it is lovely and very good value.


I felt that Viet Nam was tourism by numbers, it was difficult to get off the beaten track. Perhaps it is less so now.


Sri Lanka was lovely both in 97 and 03, not sure how much the peace dividend will have changed it. It is beautiful withouth the level of hassle and issues over hygiene that India has.


India is hopefully still an amazing experience but no doubt much changed since I went there in 01.


We liked Oaxaca in Mexico (pronounced wahaka) and headed down to the hippy surfing beaches. Bloody hot at Xmas so now?!


Cuba was interesing and not too touristy.


Do tell us where you went.

I'm not very lucky so I stay away from gambling! We're now looking at inter railing and doing eastern Europe, though need to work out our route and whether it would be cheaper to do flights and bus instead of an inter rail ticket....

Hi all


Probably going to Sri Lanka now- but I need to get vaccinations done ASAP as we're leaving on May 13th. Does anyone a) know what vaccines I need (internet varies from Typhoid and hep A to all manners of things) and b) best place to get it done? Admittedly I have not yet tried the doctors but I know getting an appointment is like gold dust and I doubt I will be able to get one in time....


thanks all

    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
    • To be fair, anything which waylays someone on their way to Palma Nova or Lloret de Mar from spending even more pre-flight time in Spoon's surely has some merit? I think losing a few quid on a litre of Bacardi and 200 Benson & Hedges Gold seems a reasonable price for society to pay. ,
