Sunrise at Grand Canyon – Travel Tip #77

admin — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 03:26:46 +0000

In general im not a big fan of the grand canyon, i don’t know why but maybe i heard so much about it that by the time i got there it wasn’t that amazing in my eyes. The one thing i do advise you should do as long as you are there is get up real early and go to watch the sunrise – it is really beautiful, make sure to be there like 20-30 minutes before, by the time you will get there you will already see tons of Japanese tourists with their bombastic cameras, so make sure to be there early enough to find a spot.

When Visiting San Francisco (Especially for the first time), take your car to civic center and start to follow the eagle sign (with the number 49 on it) – this is a 49 miles scenic drive going through all of the city attractions. You will see Chinatown, marina district, and eventually you will get to twin peaks which offers amazing view of the city.

Stratosphere Hotel, Las Vegas – Travel Tip #58

admin — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 07:34:34 +0000

This is a great hotel for its price and for the location, it is located at the end of the strip (north of the strip) and it offers some really nice rooms at cheap prices. higher floors and the roof (which also offers some rides) offers a great view of the strip. This hotel is great for someone looking to be on the strip, pay less than other hotels and be able to walk to the strip.

admin — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 04:19:16 +0000

When I was visiting Disney Land few years ago, someone has approached to us and offered us to walk in the parade and dance there, this was a really unique experience. I am not sure if you can ask to be there or if they approaching people in the park but it is defiantly worth a try. When you enter the park just ask in the info center if you can join the parade, in worse case they will say no.

Tallulah Gorge, Atlanta – Travel Tip #55

admin — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 07:17:47 +0000

Just an hour drive from Atlanta is Tallulah gorge and waterfalls. The gorge and the falls are really nice, there are several viewpoints along the way which offers some great views, these are located near the visitor’s center and from there you can also take the stairs down to see the falls from a closer look. During some weekends a year the dam is wide open and then its probably even more beautiful since the water are more powerful.

Stone Mountain, Atlanta – Travel Tip #50

Stone mountain is right there in Atlanta and it is truly a great place for an afternoon visit. when there you should take the tram to the top of stone mountain (which costs about 8USD) the top offers some great views and the mountain surface is really unique.

Bryce Canyon, Utah – Travel Tip #48

admin — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 06:26:17 +0000

Bryce canyon is one of my favorite national parks, only because it is so unique, it is like nothing you ever seen.

The park located in the south-west of Utah, not too far away from Las Vegas. When arriving to the park you should leave your car at the parking area and use the public shuttle which drive through all the attractions of the park, try to get off on the main view point and choose some hikes to explore this amazing park.

Rio Hotel, Las Vegas – Travel Tip #43

admin — Sat, 05 Sep 2009 02:17:28 +0000

This hotel is off strip but it is not that far (5 minutes drive) and the really nice thing about it is the parade they have every night beginning at 20:00 (performing few times every night) with all kind of giant carts and floats hanging from the ceiling and moving while throwing stuff at you (mostly i think it was mardi gras style beads and sweets) you can also ride one of these for a small fee.

Glacier National Park, Montana – Travel Tip #42

admin — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 04:05:16 +0000

I visited this park twice, one time was during June and another time was during September, defiantly June is better, there are still many snow and ice remains and while driving towards higher grounds (like going to the sun route) you see all those giant ice walls around you which creates some ice caves along the road and the views are great.

RoomSaver’s Coupon Books – Travel Tip #41

admin — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 06:02:07 +0000

I really love the RoomSaver’s coupons book (USA and Canada), they have a site you can print the coupons but usually I don’t like planning too much ahead – I never know where I am going to sleep that night so whenever I get to a gas station or a Burger king or something like that i pick up the book (usually they have a stand on the entrances to these places – especially on highway’s rest areas) – Some deals in this book are really great and other than one case where4 the motel owner didn’t accept his own coupon, motels and hotels are really happy to give the discount.

you can visit their site or pick them once you there – Roomsaver site
