]]>Spring is the season of renewal, and there’s no place better to experience it than in Kyoto, Japan. Famous for its stunning cherry blossoms, known as sakura, Kyoto becomes a pastel wonderland in spring. The pleasant weather and blooming gardens make this ancient city come alive with the spirit of spring.
Summer calls for idyllic island getaways, and Santorini is the place to be. Spend your days basking in the sun on red and black sand beaches, explore charming villages, and savor delicious Greek cuisine while watching the world’s most captivating sunsets.
If you’re in search of breathtaking autumn foliage, Vermont is the place to be. Drive along winding roads, hike through pristine forests, and eat some donuts while taking in the magnificent fall scenery.
For a winter wonderland experience, Lapland in Finland is a dream come true. You can witness the magical Northern Lights, embark on thrilling husky sledding adventures, and even stay in glass igloos.

]]>Even though summer is considered the off-season in Egypt, avoiding the crowds will still be impossible. Get ready for a bustling tourist scene, especially at major tourist sites such as Giza and Luxor.
It’s not uncommon for temperatures to soar up to a sizzling 100 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer, so make sure to stay hydrated, and always wear sunscreen and a hat in an attempt to conquer the Egyptian summer heat.
Heat is almost impossible to avoid in the summer, but you can try to outsmart it. Escape the scorching midday sun by perfectly timing your sightseeing adventures—ideally early in the morning or later in the afternoon when the temperature is slightly cooler.
We all want to wear our breeziest summer clothes when temperatures go through the roof, but Egypt might not be the best place to do this. As in all predominantly Muslim countries, you should try to cover your shoulders, chest, and knees to show appreciation for local people and their way of life.

]]>The crystal blue water of Madison Blue Spring makes plunging into it irresistible. The 25-foot deep swimming hole is located inside a lovely woodland area and if you are brave enough you can cave dive into the hole’s underwater caverns.
The visibility in this oasis-like natural pool is so good you can see to the bottom because the water renews itself every six hours. The reason for it is that the Blue Hole is connected to an underwater cave system.
Escape the soaring temperatures of Austin, and discover the lovely and massive Barton Springs. It’s bigger than two whole football fields and fed by the Edwards Aquifer, meaning the water is a refreshing 68 to 70 degrees year-round.
This is one of the two swimming areas found in Yellowstone National Park. Contrary to its name, the water in Firehole River is just the perfect temperature for cooling off after a hike.

]]>Don’t hit the road with a brand-new sunscreen that you’ve never tried before. It’s extremely important that your sunscreen is tested before your travels. Wear it at home on several occasions to make sure it will be effective enough during long days of sightseeing or hanging out at the beach.
It’s extremely important to pick the type of sunscreen that suits you perfectly. If you intend to spend a lot of time in the water, waterproof sunscreen is a must, and you should consider buying a sunscreen with a higher sun protection factor if your skin is too sensitive.
Putting sunscreen before leaving your accommodation and calling it a day simply isn’t enough. You should reapply it every two hours because its effect will wear off after a while, so make sure to have it in your bag at all times.

]]>So what are all these flavors? The flavors include traditional ones like chocolate, vanilla, and pistachio, as well as contemporary tastes like walnut, salted butter caramel, pecan and maple, coffee, and cookies. They also have innovative flavors with some really unusual ideas, which include avocado, rose, olive, and even something called “spice bread.”
The sorbet flavors focus on fruit, where you can find the more traditional like strawberry, lemon, and mint, and more out-there flavors like cactus sorbet, tomato-basil sorbet, and finally the truly legendary beer sorbet.

]]>This is Scandinavia’s best known and most popular festival, a traditional celebration of the summer solstice. Midsummer, locally called “Midsommar,” marks the longest day of the year, June 21st, so the festival takes place over the weekend between the 20th and the 26th of June. The festivities are rooted in pre-Christian times and the traditions include a bonfire, folk music, and eating potatoes, fish, and fruit, and drinking fresh ale.
The beautiful all-year-round Scandinavian wild landscape is simply glorious in the summer. After the winter snow is thawed, the rivers and archipelagos are gushing and refreshing and can be enjoyed to the fullest in the long days. If you’re confident on a kayak or a canoe, rent equipment and go on your own otherwise take a rowing and camping tour with an experienced guide in one of the region’s many national parks.

]]>That isn’t necessarily a bad thing, however! While a trip to a small town an hour away from your home might not be as exciting as a getaway to Paris or Bali, it can be great all the same. Here are three tips that will help you to make the most of local travel this summer.
Avoiding crowds will be a top priority for many this summer, so why not head to the wide-open expanses of nature to experience Earth’s most beautiful sights while social distancing? Hiking or exploring a natural park is a great option to do this.
If you live in a small town an hour outside of a big city, you’ve probably spent some time in it before. But why not head back there this summer and check out the things that you weren’t able to do in your last visit there? Doubling up while traveling isn’t a bad thing!
Traveling to popular destinations this summer is probably going to be down, so why not take advantage of the lack of crowds to visit popular tourist attractions that you never mustered up the patience to visit before?

]]>Midommar is the Swedish name for the celebration of the summer solstice. The festivities are dated back to 1953, when the Swedes decided that they wanted to mark the longest day of the year with a maypole (midsommarstång) and other events, loosely referencing European pagan customs.
Lake Siljan is located in the region of Dalarna in Sweden. It’s considered by all to be one of the best places to be during Midsommar, and Lake Siljan is one of the reasons. Dalarna is recognized as Sweden’s “folklore district” and the lake area gets the full treatment of the maypoles, Swedish flags, and traditional costumes, dancing, and food.
Like most seasonal and traditional festivities, Midsommar in Lake Siljan has some tasty treats to go along the dancing. Like most Nordic countries, fish are very important in Swedish cuisine. Classic dishes like smoked salmon and pickled herring would feature in Midsommar traditional menus, as well as gravlax (cured salmon). Alongside the fish, some grilled meats, potatoes, and fresh vegetables.

]]>Studies have shown that the cheapest months are January and February. In March prices tend to go up, and by April flights can go up by almost 50% of what they were the month before.
Ironically enough, mid-January to the end of February are the cheapest months to travel as well, as this is known as the “dead zone”, the time after Christmas and New Years but before spring. In the fall, mid-September to October are the cheapest months, although slightly behind January and February.
To sum it up, if you have a flexible schedule and are willing to fly on odd months then your chances to find a cheap ticket go up. If you are booking an international flight for the summer then book it before April for the best price!

]]>The post The Andaman Islands Are The Ultimate Beach Trip appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>The flora of the islands consists of primeval jungles surrounded by sunny white-sanded beaches and gorgeous turquoise waters. Havelock, or Swaraj, is the most popular island due to its spectacular beaches and diving spots.
At about 620 miles from the mainland, the Andaman and neighboring Nicobar islands, where foreign visitors are not allowed at all, are in fact the peaks of a submerged mountain range that runs from Myanmar to Indonesia.
A big part of the Andamans is also off-limits to tourists in order to protect its bio-diversity as well as preserve the culture of the indigenous tribes of hunter-gatherers that still live there. The population, a mere 380,000 people, is a mix of South and Southeast Asian immigrants and Negrito ethnic groups.
Those who have experienced the bold, exotic charm of the islands describe them as the perfect remote island getaway with amazing beaches, crystal-clear water, incredibly colorful coral reefs, and tropical forests.
In March, the archipelago got its first five-star resort, Taj Exotica, which consists of 72 elegant villas, a 50-meter infinity pool, and three high-end restaurants.
