Pinterest Have ideas or questions about what you'd like us to cover? Please e-mail us your questions or ideas at [email protected] Visit our blog and website by clicking here! We were last in Europe in the Summer of 2023! Europe’s train system is one of the easiest in the world to use and 9 times out of 10 will be cheaper and faster than any airline travel you can book. While airports are obviously located outside of all the historic city centers that you wish to visit, the great European train stations are usually smack in the middle of the tourist districts. Amsterdam Central and Gare du Nord in Paris are two perfect examples. Train stations don’t have the massive security lines that airports are saddled with. Usually, a ticket is all you need to go from curb to platform meaning that you just need to arrive 15-20 minutes before your train rather than 2-3 hours at an airport. When you start doing the math, often a longer train ride is more time efficient than a shorter trip in the air. For example, to fly from London to Paris can take 45 minutes in the air but add in getting to the airport, through security, waiting for potential delays and then getting back in the city once you land can take up to five hours while the chunnel train has you leaving London and perusing in Paris in about three hours. Trains can connect two key destinations on your itinerary together with an overnight trip. Hopping on an overnight sleeper in Amsterdam for less than $200.00 then pull into Zurich. Spend a morning in Zurich and after lunch, you can continue on to points in all directions including Venice, Milan, Vienna, Munich and more. Trains often offer better views than one would imagine. Yes, you’ll definitely see a slice of real life as trains leave the pristine city centers and make their way out toward the countryside. And that countryside! With patchwork quilt fields making up local farms, hills, mountains, rivers and lakes. There’s plenty to see as trains make their way from one big city through plenty of sleepy villages to another famous icon. Fave trains: Thalys Paris to Amsterdam TrenItalia: Paris to Milan Any train is switzerland

We were last in Europe in the Summer of 2023! It sounds like such a great deal! But there a couple of things you should know when it comes to those too good to be true travel deals. You pay for how your time is used and keep that in mind for everything that you do. Getting a group rate airfare means that there is no upgrading and not many options. In short, the control of your flights does not belong to you. You can’t use points or miles for upgrades You can add the trip to your account though If there is any delay or cancellations, the tour company or cruise line will be in charge of how the problem gets remedied. The before and after Choose to fly in early and explore something close by or stay on later to enjoy after your tour. A few examples are PARIS, ROME, A GREEK ISLAND Even cruises are jumping on board the extended stays! Often, these are offered as an add on but look closely and you will see that they often easily arranged and cover simple venues and activities. The Layover The art of the layover has been analyzed from every angle possible!!! From Anthony Bourdain’s show to movies about airport life. The Layover is a great way to capitalize on your time. Airport Layovers like Munich or Istanbul Get out layovers like copenhagen or Heathrow Airports that might have a tougher layover: Dublin, Paris, Amsterdam You need MORE than 10 hours to make these worth it. You have the options!

We were last in Europe in the Summer of 2023! Dear Babcia and YiaYia- I’ve been researching trips to Italy and Ireland. I don’t want to plan an entire trip DIY style but I don’t want to follow a package deal on a crowded bus either. So far, I haven’t found something that takes into account everything that I’m hoping to do. With so many travel and tour companies to choose from, how do I know that I’m investing my time and money correctly? I don’t want to be disappointed in the end and I don’t want to waste my time. Can you give me some advice? Lets breakdown all the different tour packages that you can use to experience The first rule of travel is that you will always pay for your time. Without a slower travel pace and a flexible calendar you are not going to see a huge savings. This is especially true All inclusive stays and tours including cruises Add on to one of those? The second rule of travel is that something will go wrong Tour packages that include group based activities that may include air, etc. Often from a church or a community group (bus tours of ___) The third rule of travel is that you’ll NEVER, EVER get to everything on your bucket list Boutique travel experiences that create bespoke itineraries for specific goals These kind of experiences include a consultation, and a lot of preplanning, we like to include a lot of pre and post trip communication and will even add in workshops for things like packing or passports Customized itineraries like bamboo travel reach out for more detailed travel Not the “best of” The fourth rule of travel is that DIY isn’t always the best option (Christmas cookie ingredient analogy) DIYers (the Disney effect)

Not taking the time to Journal Not pre booking the big draws Not leaving the good stuff at home Being the target Additionally, things like statement tees (especially offensive ones) are frowned upon. This isn't a judgement thing, it's simply a safety thing. Take this statement "we love when Americans visit! They spend so much money!" Remember those pick pockets. Lastly, the number one cause of death for tourists is car accident. Predictable. The number two? Accidental falls and drownings. In other words... death by selfie. Not paying attention to the calendarNot Shopping around.Thinking that cheaper is always betterRenting a car for the whole time Not Booking as directly as possible. Breakfast plans, anyone? Not thinking through your breakfast optionsNot putting in the Research time.Not Finding a playground.Not Booking some downtime.

We were last in Europe in the Summer of 2023! Top of the Krakow list is the beautiful Wawel Castle, the heartbreaking experience at Auschwitz and the story of Oskar Schindler and his factory. But there is more to this town than just the worthwhile big hitters. Here are five experiences we recommend to anyone who wants to take on Krakow. Admit it, it's the perfect food. Two bites of dough wrapped tastiness is about as good as it gets. Well, maybe being able to make them and eat them is as good as it gets! Check out the cooking classes offered by Delicious Poland as well as walking tours that let you get used to the local menu. We know, we know, but we didn't make a mistake! While the famous Mona Lisa holds court in the Louvre, her cousin, Lady with Ermine, has just recently been reinstalled to her place of honor in the Czartoryski Museum in the heart of the city. Noooo... not a pub crawl! We bet that you've already seen all of those little eco golf carts all over the center of Krakow. They are the perfect set of wheels to explore all of those amazing churches dotting the old town and beyond. Don't get us wrong, there are plenty in walking distance from the main square and you'll get to see everything from priceless altar pieces to the altar dedicated to St. Hyacinth, the patron saint of the pierogi! However, those eco carts can get you to some of the further flung churches like Corpus Christi and give you a little bonus look at the Kazimierz District! Each and every one has a different look and a different feel. Each has a little bit of a different story and plenty of historical references including side chapels with amazing art and architecture and religious references including the hometown hero saints like Pope John Paul II and Maximillian Kolbe. Summer is the perfect season to enjoy the European football season (even if you aren't a die hard fan in real life). In all reality, the game isn't the point. The experience of being in a pub or cafe as the game is on with people cheering for a team is the true fun of it all. So, book a table, figure out which side everyone is rooting for and blindly follow as best you can. Trust us! You'll have a ball! The Vistula River winds its way through Krakow connecting the Old Town and Kazimierz areas with the Podgorze district. The Father Bernatek Bridge was built in 2010 and is a lovely place to cross. This footbridge is dotted with acrobatic sculptures that seem to balance on the high wires above. Rent some bikes and enjoy the crossing as the sculptures dance above you. 5 Things to experience in Europe's best kept secretCook up perfection in a pierogi class.Take in the glory of Leonardo DaVinci.Partake in a Church Crawl.Watch the game!Walk the bridge.

4.2 Our solution to overpacking: The capsule wardrobe

Pinterest Have ideas or questions about what you'd like us to cover? Please e-mail us your questions or ideas at [email protected] Visit our blog and website by clicking here! We were last in Europe in the Summer of 2023! You hear it all the time! Create a capsule wardrobe to be a successful traveler. It makes any potential packer think that they need to order and buy specialty clothes to only use when there's a suitcase at hand. Not so fast! We, here at Babcia and YiaYia, think that you might be selling yourself and your closet a little short. That's right, we think you probably have far more than you think to complete the perfect travel wardrobe. You already know all of the things in your closet that are high maintenance They wrinkle fast and never wash well. You probably pull them out once or twice a year. They probably won't pack very well anyway. Additionally, you probably know what kind of weather your head toward so out of season stuff is not part of your packing equation. It's your favorite one and you pair it with black and white all the time. Ours is blue. It goes with our complexions and never fails to photograph well. You probably have this color weaving in and out of every rack in your closet anyway. Black. White. Denim. These wardrobe basics are the foundation to your mix and match packing style. It's time to start pairing items together so that everything you take pulls a double shift. We start with the amount of days from take off to laundry. Do you have seven days until laundry? Then you need 5 bottoms in cool weather and 6 bottoms in hot weather. (Why six? Try sweating all day and then trying to look refreshed for dinner.) Seven days also needs 6-7 tops. There are many people who will give you different numbers but sweat doesn't lie. Then make sure each top has a different bottom that will make a new look. If you like dresses, simply subtract one for every dress you plan to pack. Just remember that every dress you take needs to pack well. It also needs to be useful. Dresses for a rafting trip won't do you much good but an easy to use maxi dress might be just perfect for evenings in Paris. No matter what the weather, we always pack a wrap, a cardigan, and a scarf. Sounds like overkill? Well, we find that we use every single item every single time. Wraps are perfect as a double for plane blanket or pillow. The most important thing about these pieces is that they go with every single outfit we bring. You are definitely going to need walking shoes. These will most likely be your bulkiest shoes and you will most likely wear them on the plane just like us. Additionally, you are going to want a pair of shoes that turns all of your outfits into a smarter look for evening. This may be a pair of flats or sandals. The point is, they elevate your look somehow to give you a little oomph. Take all of those picks and pack them up. Try not to open it for three or four days. Then, take it all out and decide if it's a keeper. You're ready to make a shopping list of the very few things that may be missing.
