>>2837384Really? We'll just be using Nikko as a homebase and explore the surroundings. That goes for most areas listed. Do you still think it is excessive then?

What's the best area to stay in Sapporo if I want to be on the outskirts; so I can drive out into the countryside in my rental car avoiding most urban congestion, OR easily walk to the subway station to go downtown?
>>2837859I tried just wandering aimlessly, and in the areas where there's fun stuff to find, it's fun, but if I find myself somewhere borint, like Shimbashi or Toranomon, I just feel like I wasted my time. So I'm the tourist type who prefers to get to see as much as I can and then go sleep in my hotel satisfied
>>2837228>using a car in Japanyou guys really have no clue
How is in comparison to rest of East Africa's coast (Zanzibar, Mombasa etc)? Anything to worry about in particular?Feral beach boys? Malaria mosquitoes? Somalian terrorists? Civil unrest? Anything?
malindi isn't safe anymore, all the italian expat retirees propping it up died or went homeit is not comparable to zanzibar or mombasaif you want 'laid back east african beach resort vibes', then try diani beach south of mombasa, which is well removed from the somalian border and secure by comparison
>>2837988>it is not comparable to zanzibar or mombasaIn what sense? It's more dirty? Locals are more scammy or unpleasent?I couldn't find anything on terror attacks. I found only this, rather amusing thing:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakahola_Forest_incidentSome magic, religious shit, but it seems no mzungus were involved in any way.However google found two old Germans killed, 10 years apart:https://www.the-star.co.ke/counties/coast/2020-01-29-german-78-found-dead-in-a-pool-of-blood-in-malindi-hotelhttps://www.reuters.com/article/world/robbers-shoot-dead-german-man-in-kenya-idUSJOE6490QB/
The Egyptian Government here...Who's gonna come to the Grand Egyptian Museum? Will open in 30 days lmao
>>2828956I won't, because:1. I'm English and they are a very Anglophobic nation;2. I'm Christian and they are Islamists;3. The new museum looks dogshit, even with the amazing artefacts
>>2830512Lol that's crazy how the "men" in these countries have literally nothing better to do that wait outside a party to grope women walking out. Like what a bunch of useless vermin lol.
>>2837227>2. I'm Christian Shalom, rabbi.
went to the new museum, it's absolutely massive. There's a bunch of nice boutique stores in the lobby era, jewelry stores, some French bakeries/ Starbucks etc. The gift shop they have is probably the only I've encountered in Egypt that is actually nice, it's comparable to the MET or Louvre ( expensive, but also not selling absolute shit that's peddled at the other ' official' gift stores ). The museum is so huge I gave up half way through, they seem to have a lot of winding open hallways, what architecturally looks very modern and nice, but man walking it catches up to you. Also the amount of exhibits is overwhelming- you get really bored after a while. there are sections where it's just case after case of beads and hair picks, really small stuff. Part of me wonders if it would've been better to have a smaller and more curated selection. Having been to the old museum, they at least for now are taking the security seriously, where previously they didn't give a fuck and let you touch whatever. beautiful place, but like others mention, I'm curious how long they can maintain such a huge place.
>>2837945>Part of me wonders if it would've been better to have a smaller and more curated selectiontypicallyin these HUGE "national pride" museumsyou have a shorter guide / route where you just check out the 20-40 highlight exhibitsi'd be really surprised if they don't have this there
going to london for 4 days w a friend. not staying there much. friend is a football freak so we are going to manchester on sat for a game and on sun back to london for another - so we are probably renting a car. i honestly want to see some picturesque countryside and maybe go one night out. i like nature mythology, celtic stuff, tolkien, good food & techno for nightlife. where should we go.
>>2834394>back to back premierslop gamesJesus, should've chosen a more real experience in the lower leagues. Must've cost him a bomb.In any event, try and get in on the pre-game drinking with fans. This will allow you a somewhat 'authentic experience', and people generally will be happy to see some freshfaced cunts popping along to support their side.Also, only faggots get to their seat on time. You need to spend at least 5 minutes downstairs finishing off your pint, and then bonus points if you have seats in the middle of the row and make everyone stand.I'd not bother with the car, desu. Just book trains asap. Parking in cities is a bit shit. Also, if you want to get to techno events, and get sloshed at the footy, you don't want to worry about driving. Parking on matchdays can be fucking brutal. Trains in the UK are expensive, but are actually decent.
>>2834488>>2834495based and appreciated thanks
>>2834394>nature mythology, celtic stuff, tolkienin and around manchester you're not going to get any of that, nor anything picturesque. like >>2834488 anon said, you're best going through the peak district on your drive back to london. it's funny; i am from manchester and live here still, and i love it. however i have no idea what id recommend.

Don't forget to fill the ETA a couple of days in advance.
I'm thinking China, Thailand, SK type beat nom sayin?
>>2837318nauru
>>2837318Thailand and SK are good countries though
>>2837318stop off in baku for a few days on the way.
>>2837318what is that red square, french polynesia? how was that
>>2837318Bangkok is barely reaching 32 C currently. It's a great time to visit. If you're not fat, you can go around even in midday without sweating, by simply radiating heat into your environment from your skin. I recommend eating hot soup to force your body to engage full heat-dissipation mode, which as a pinched frigid Canuck you have never really done.
Oman is one of the most underrated countries to visit.>Very safe>Not Westernized/commercialized like UAE or Qatar>Beautiful mountains and beaches>Great food>FriendlyI only went once in 2015 but I’m dying to go back.
>>2836945Plenty of Arabs from neighboring countries visit Oman, but white people are not a very common sight, especially during the hotter months.
>>2836975What prices are you looking at? I could've flown Saudia RDU -> MCT with an Endeavor codeshare connection to JFK for $480 or so.

>relaxed pace>4 activities a day>all overrated tourist trapsJust ask chatgpt at this point.>late brunch. Optional lantern or cooking class. Sunset river cruise.holy shit lmao this is the cringiest shit I've read this week
>>2837853Ah, okay. Any recommendations?
Discussing travel safety in less-than-pristine places is difficult because the technically correct answer for maximizing safety is always going to be>just don't travel thereWith that being said, we all have our own levels of what we consider acceptable risk tolerance for these sorts of things. Where is your personal threshold at? What's the sketchiest place you've been, or would consider going to? What kinds of dangers do you plan for, and what precautions do you take?>pic unrelated
>>2837670Was baisically my thoughts as well, I was just hoping for somthing slightly less asian this time but choices are slim. I had been to alot of Europe before the fall, but I can only go back to Ireland so many times too. Even that seems to be changing in the big cities. Can anyone attest to Iceland or Greenland? Sweden is a horde country it seems these days.
>>2837670t. Has never been to Europe but is an expert on it because he browses /pol/ all day long
>>2837674>Sweden is a horde country it seems these days.>it seemsExplain?
>>2837592>You shouldn't trust any of the "super friendly" people you encounter in Manila, unless they are visibly employedprobably good advice for any country tbqh
>>2837660Poland felt safe to me. The drunks get loud and drop their bottles on the sidewalk, but otherwise they don't seem to harass anybody. I never saw non-whites loitering around in Poland, apart from the delivery drivers waiting for an order. Idle freeloader migrants are not tolerated there. One thing I did notice, every single bicycle parked in public had a proper bike lock on it, with a heavy chain or bar...so you still should take some precautions with your property.
Currently going back and forth between the two and hoping to make a decision next month. Iceland - Pros>Place I was planning on going to anyways>Lots of reputable existing tour companies offering fairly reasonably priced excursions where they will drive to wherever the best weather is day of ($100-200 per person)>Possibility to see auroras during the eclipse, odds are supposedly low but a literal once in a lifetime event if it does happenIceland - Cons>Really really cloudy, odds of any location having clouds is 80%, but odds of all locations having clouds is 30-40%>Tiny island so going to be super swamped with talk of road closures and skyrocketing pricesSpain - Pros>Large country with many places to view so demand curve will be flatter which hopefully means lower risk of last minute cancellations and price gouging>Great weather>Can move around day of or in days leading up to it to account for weather thanks to comprehensive train networkComment too long.

>>2835505Iceland - Pros>Literally every woman will gladly have sex with you every nightSpain - Cons>Most of the good places are paid to HATE tourists now
There's also an eclipse in Spain in 2027. Does that change the calculus for anyone?
>>2836773If I miss the 2026 eclipse because it's cloudy, then I'll consider going to Gibraltar in 2027. The 2027 eclipse will be partial for most of Spain.
The eclipse crosses a tiny area in Iceland where there is limited access. I'd not go there. Also the duration of totality is shorter in Iceland.
>>2837834Your incessant, irrational anti Iceland shrieking is concerning and weird.
Nothing beats Italy when it comes to architectural beauty and climate does it? It's like the place is sacred or something.I mean there are places like Switzerland that look picturesque and wonderful, and places like Vienna where everything is so clean and the architecture is grand but it doesn't feel special like it feels with Italy.The only thing that Italy suffers from I think it doesn't have as much natural beauty and variety like other places.I wish Rome never fell.
>>2835390it's a trap
>>2835401saaar yes we need more colors saaarbharat only country that is good in the world
>>2835385>The only thing that Italy suffers from I think it doesn't have as much natural beauty and variety like other places.If you stick to the big tourist trap cities sure. If you go out exploring a little bit in the countryside, islands, mountains etc you can find all the natural beauty you need
>>2835385Too bad it's fallen in the meantime.
>>2835390>Shades of yellow and pinkThat's not color.
Hey, /trv/. Would anyone like to share their experiences here? I'm going in late November and am especially excited to explore VI national park on St. John. My question is, how should I handle transportation on the island? Is it best to rent a car? A scooter? Just taxi everywhere? Or use some other form of transportation, like public transit?I hear the roads are a bit crazy, but I want to explore freely if possible. Also, I'll be alone probably as this is a solo trip. I'm also happy to take any other tips about the USVI and/or the Dominican Republic, where I'll be staying in Punta Cana for a few days as well. (Am I going to get stabbed?)Thanks!
>>2837801>I'm going in late NovemberYou might not be since Trump wont pay the air traffic controllers
>>2837805Late November it'll all be fine. The government will reopen after the elections today. Dems only shut it down to motivate their base
Anyone ever drive from the north to Florida? Looking to do this route from Toronto to Miami next spring to go to an event.The last two years I've flown and the flight goes for $3-400CAD and the car rental is about $3-400 CAD for the week. Is it retarded to consider driving down instead? I've driven upto 16 hours in one straight shot before.
>>2831815>West Virginia is extremely boringLOLif you don't know where the good hikes are and aren't willing to get off the highway at allnew river gorge is pretty accessible off major highways>>2831815cincinnati isn't bad and you have the red river gorge nearby
>>2828698I started in upstate New York with a sibling, stopping in Alexandria, Savannah, and Orlando. Grand time.
>>2837772Ah shit, I keep forgetting how slow this board goes and how I already made this reply a month ago.
>>2828698I personally go through Western Virginia instead of West Virginia for my long Island to SE Florida drives (though both are crazy but beautiful if it snows on your drive). Roanoke is a pretty solid city or stop in, Charlotte is a corporate backrooms hellhole, Savannah is beautiful and should absolutely stop there.
>>2830327That's because I-95 in West Connecticut has been under horrible construction for eons and the boswash area always sucks to get around during rush hour
how much money for food and tickets I need in Istanbul? Is 800 liras fine for a dinner? I'll be going there in November.
>>2833576All I know is that it’s Istanbul not Constantinople.
>>2833576Im here now and last night i had a plate of rice and meatballs (kofte) for 250 lira here in Şişli.I'd say you need about 50 eur/day (not counting accomodation costs), this includes a couple of late night beers in one of the fancy irish pubs in taksim
>>2837687Furthermore, a big whopper + fries + cola combo is like 310 lira
>>2837727>eating mcdonalds in istanbul
>>2837687I'd feel okay with 50 euros a day including hotel. I spent 40€ equivalent over 24 hours in the city...somewhat less than my stopover in the UAE. >>2837747Even if you don't eat McDonalds, the price of a Big Mac is a great way to compare food costs across countries.
Alright, so I'll be taking a trip next year from the US to Canada, and I want to bring my cigarettes with me. However the issue is that at the time I'll be 19, which is legal in Canada but not the US.So what I'm asking is if it's possible and viable to just not tell customs about my cigarettes, put them in some hidden spot in one of my bags, and hope they don't find them?I'll be traveling with family (not very close family) and really don't want to get in trouble with customs.Thanks boys!
>>2837604im not op retard
>>2837616no
>>2837630thank you anon
>>2829861Hoooo boy cigarettes!!!!! Such a cool adult thing to do 𐅁(■0̵■¬)𐅀Your middle school buddies will think you're SOOOO fucking cool
>>2829861WTF did they change the packaging? I could have sworn the hidden naked man in the camels front legs had a bigger dick.
