Things I Wish I Knew Before Visiting Egypt - Egypt Travel Tips

2026-09-2030:02

Egypt had been on my bucket list for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my dad would read us books about the world, ancient history, animals and different countries instead of the usual bedtime stories. Somewhere amongst those books were the pyramids, the Sphinx and the stories of ancient Egypt. So when I finally stood in front of the pyramids, it wasn't just another travel experience. It was a childhood dream coming to life. But Egypt also surprised me in ways I hadn't expected. From dis...

2026-09-1336:56

If you’ve ever scrolled past a photo of Palau in Micronesia and wondered, surely that water can’t actually be that blue, I have good news… it really is. Palau is one of those rare destinations where reality genuinely looks like the photos. Think jungle-covered limestone islands floating in impossibly turquoise water, hidden waterfalls, white limestone mud, traditional meeting houses, WWII ruins and an underwater world filled with reef sharks, manta rays and giant clams.

What followed was one of my most memorable Egy...

2026-08-3025:42

Hobart has a way of surprising you. One minute you’re wandering between historic sandstone buildings at Salamanca Place, coffee in hand. The next, you’re standing on kunanyi / Mount Wellington with cold wind on your face, looking across the city, river and sea. Then the sun goes down and you’re choosing between a cosy wine bar, a historic pub or somewhere serving incredible Tasmanian produce. In this episode of Tourist to Traveller, I’m sharing my Hobart travel guide... including the best thi...

The Best Day Trips from Port Vila, Vanuatu: Beaches, Islands, Waterfalls & More

2026-08-2335:46

One of the things I loved most about travelling through Vanuatu was discovering just how much you can experience without constantly packing your bags and changing hotels. Port Vila is more than a place to stay... it’s the perfect base for exploring Efate Island. Within an hour, you can be snorkelling over coral reefs, swimming in impossibly blue lagoons, chasing waterfalls, exploring tropical islands or finishing the day with a cocktail beside the ocean. And some of the experiences that staye...
