The post Curieuse Island is One of Seychelles’ Best Hidden Secrets appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>Most people visiting Seychelles are there for an amazing beach vacation on the shores of the Indian Ocean. Curieuse Island won’t leave you disappointed if this is the kind of experience that you’re looking for because it’s home to many granite rock beaches.
The natural beauty of Curieuse Island knows no bounds and it offers everything from amazing beaches to mangrove forests. This island is notable for being home to one of the very few natural forests of the coco de mer palm trees, known for their enormous seeds.
One of the things that Curieuse is best known for is its charming Turtle Sanctuary. This island is home to a colony of around 300 Aldabra giant tortoises, and it’s one of the best places in the world where you can see them in their natural habitat.

]]>British Airways is known for its impeccable service, but the Concorde Room at Heathrow Airport is also one of its perks. This room is only for passengers with first-class tickets.
Each area of the lounge has plush sofas that look like they belong in Buckingham Palace, and regional cuisine cooked by the chef on the premises. To top it off, you can even get a massage while you wait for your flight.
Singapore Airlines has long been one of the leaders in the airline industry. For passengers with a first-class ticket, you can request a private room within the first-class lounge. From there, you can ask for the champagne of your choice, a private bathroom, and a selection of different food.
Emirates offers one of the most luxurious first-class experiences in the world, and so does its flagship lounge in Dubai. This is one of the biggest lounges on the list and encompasses a floor in the airport. Instead of having a set menu for their passengers, the menu changes throughout the day. That means that a wide array of foreign cuisines will be on offer for passengers with long layovers.

]]>Older pets do not travel as well as younger pets. That means before you make the big decision to take them on a plane they should have a health check with their vet. Your vet will let you know if your pet is up to the journey or not.
Some airlines are well-regulated when it comes to transporting pets. They ensure that a dog is walked in-between flights, regularly checked on, and always have enough food and water in their pet carriers. Reading reviews of fellow travelers, who have used the pet transport service will give you a good idea of who you want to care for your faithful companion.
Regulations for pet travel can change, and you want to ensure that all the airlines you are flying on adhere to them. They may also vary by country, which means the care your pets receive may not be to the standard you would like. Talk to a service agent, and discuss your pet’s individual needs. You will get a feel for how the airline regards pets, and their car. Then you can use your judgement, and choose the best airline for you and your pet.
Now you and your pet can jet off into the sun!

]]>With 250 rooms and suites to choose from, there is something for every discerning guest. There are views of the sea or the mountains depending on what you prefer. Each room is furnished with modern touches, along with traditional Omani furniture.
In the hotel, you’ll find five swimming pools and a beach that is strictly women-only along with a first-class spa. If that’s not enough, there are six restaurants and cafes on the grounds of the palace, which feature Chinese, Turkish, European, and Omani cuisine.
As the palace is situated within the capital city of Muscat, there are also a ton of sites to see within the city proper. You can book a car and driver through the hotel, and head into town to walk in the Muttrah Souk, and choose some souvenirs to bring home. There is also the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, and the National Museum of Oman, that are well worth a visit.

]]>There are a lot of different companies that will take your digital files and combine them to make a photo book. You can use the editing platforms to create different themes, decoratives pages, and anything else that will really make your photos memorable. Mixbook, Vista Print, and Printique all offer great photo book services.
If you have trouble choosing between your photos, consider getting a digital picture frame. You will be able to load a microSD card with hundreds of photos, and then they will all display at random intervals.
You can always print your photos and frame them, or you can create a photo collage. This involves a bit more work but is worth the effort. Print out your favorite photos in color or black and white, and carefully arrange them on a sturdy board. You can then glue them on, and place a plastic sheet over them.
All of these are a great way to remember your travels, and think about your future ones.

]]>Hikers have been rocking these velcro strapped sandals since they first hit the market in 1984. A river guide is credited with their creation. After getting tired of watching their sandals float away every time they fell in the water, they decided to velcro their flips to their feet. From there the Tevas we know and love today were born.
Another excellent option is Chacos. These were developed in 1989 by a rafting guide, who had a similar problem —floating sandals. Instead of velcro, they developed a system that tightens nylon bands to hold the sandals to your feet. These are slightly harder to get on and off than Tevas, but an excellent option as they offer a more cushioned sole.

]]>When shopping for luggage, we tend to look for two things: elegance and practicality. German luxury goods company, Montblanc offers leather and brushed metal trolley bags and suitcases that appeal to the discerning customer. Each piece of luggage has been designed as if by an architect and features an industrial design with a modern edge. These suitcases are perfect for the traveler who spends a lot of time on business trips or hitting the Alps. Trolley bags start at $950.
The American brand, Mark Cross which originated in Boston is a lesser-known luxury luggage brand. It rose to prominence in the 1950s, when one of the leather trunk cases was used in Hitchcock’s film Rear Window. Since then, the handmade leather travel cases have been coveted by those in the know. The trunk made famous in the film starts at $1,500.
No luxury luggage list would be complete without a nod to the iconic Louis Vuitton design house. Each of the pieces is recognizable by the monogrammed LV that appears on all of the bags. You can’t go wrong if you opt to buy one of these. Their trolley bags start at $3,350.

]]>If you’re going to a country where they don’t speak your native language, then it’s a good idea to memorize a couple of key phrases. While you’re waiting to arrive at your destination, use an app like Duolingo or Memrise to learn some key phrases. This will help you ask for directions, or where the closest bathroom is.
There are a lot of great crafts you can do if you like art. Bring a sketch pad and a set of pencils. You can sketch out different items on the plane, or passengers around you. If you like knitting or needlepoint you can bring your gear and knit a scarf or a hat.
Netflix’s The Queen’s Gambit had the world falling in love with chess again. Bring a travel board of your favorite game like chess or checkers, and ask your travel companion if they want to play a few games. If you’re flying solo, this can be a nice way to get to know the passenger next to you.

]]>Mission Hill is the best of the best when it comes to the Okanagan region. Not only are the wines aged to perfection, but the winery itself is a work of art. It was designed by Tom Kundig to have the feel of a monastery about it, with an inner courtyard, amphitheater, and surrounding outbuildings. Each wine is superb, but if you have the chance try the Oculus, you won’t be disappointed.
Another excellent winery, which features a lovely shaded restaurant is Quail’s Gate. This winery has a magnificent view of Lake Okanagan and is designed with picnickers in mind. You can do a wine tasting, purchase a bottle of wine, and head over to one of the many picnic tables to enjoy a glass while looking over the water and the vines.

]]>Not all pods are built the same. If you are above average height, you may find fitting inside one of the pods difficult. Most of them are built to accommodate people who are roughly six feet tall. If you are over six feet, you may not be able to lay flat inside your pod.
Many capsule hotels are designed with small luggage in mind. Some hotels only offer lockers that can fit carry-on size luggage. If you are traveling with large suitcases, or backpacks you may not be able to store your luggage at all capsule hotels. Always ask what size luggage the hotel has room to store.
As all of the capsules are stacked on top of each other and next to one another, any kind of loud noise is not tolerated. If you are planning to stay in a pod, you must be willing to be quiet, and simply use it as an area to rest or do quiet activities.
