arrieve There are no roads to Machu Picchu. You either take the train from Ollantaytambo, or you hike the Inca Trail. (Spoiler alert: We took the train.) This is where it’s very helpful to be part of a tour, as Machu Picchu tourism is becoming more regulated all the time. You’re only allowed one carry-on …

tomtofa We went to Norway in May of this year. Unlike most of our traveling – airbnb, rental car/public transportation – this one was a group tour, the standard ‘Norway in a nutshell’. Not sure I’d do it the same way next time; most of the places worth seeing had parking nearby, and the roads …
