Oslo's harbour with Akershus fortress

All Rights Reserved Exposure

Land of extraordinary beauty, Norway's undisputed attraction is its fantastic scenery. Rugged mountains, fjords and glaciers give Norway a rough feel, one which is delightful to travellers accustomed to the slick cities of other European destinations. Even Norway's capital, Oslo. reflects this: uninterested in the busy bustle of modern life, the city takes pleasure in numerous parks, monuments and museums, maintaining a strikingly subdued attitude.

In its northern reaches, Norway stretches into the Arctic Circle. It's a cold place, but brilliantly varied and interesting. Perhaps contrary to popular beliefs, polar bears and walruses can not be seen in their natural environment atop ice floes on the coast of mainland Norway (Svalbard is another matter). Seals, however, can be seen many places along the coast. Nevertheless naturally treeless areas create a hau ... Read more »

The Cardboard Box Travel Shop uses several reputable local and international car hire companies to supply our clients with rental vehicles. The overwhelming majority of vehicles are rented from Windhoek or Windhoek International Airport (as those are the main entry points to Namibia) but rentals are also available from other centers around the country including Swakopmund, Luderitz, Walvis Bay Tsumeb (for those wishing to visit Etosha).

When deciding on which car to hire there are numerous factors you should take into account. Some things to think about are:

  1. The condition of the roads in Namibia; although many places are accessible with sedan cars for most of the year during the raining season many areas require a four wheel drive rental vehicle, or at least think about renting a vehicle with higher clearance.
  2. During summer, daytime temperatures throughout Namibia can be extreme so a rental vehicle with air conditioning is desirable
  3. How man ... Read more »

It's the final countdown to your next big adventure. You’ve got your passport and tickets, every pair of socks you own, and enough mosquito repellent to cover an elephant. But aren’t you forgetting something? Travel insurance, a safety net if things go wrong, should be right at the top of your list.

Travelling wouldn’t be fun without surprises. But sometimes the unexpected leaves you whimpering in a hospital bed when you should be exploring the jungle. Injuries, illnesses, and even spewing volcanoes can tear up your perfect itinerary. And that’s where travel insurance can save you from distress – or at least from some of the costs, depending on the policy you buy.

Reading through your policy won’t get your pulse racing, but it’s essential to check how you’re covered, what’s not covered and any conditions that apply before you set out – whether you bought annual travel insurance or cover for a short trip. Let’s face it, you won’t be in the mood to read through travel ... Read more »

Now Is Traditionally the time when we stock up on holiday broachures and start planning those expensive foreign vacations.

But remember that brochures should be treated with caution. Holiday firms don't always mention the fact that you will be travelling in the monsoon season, or that you'll be sharing your hotel with a naturist convention from Cologne.

To make sure your holiday doesn't provide the subject matter for the Autumn series of Watchdog, interrogate your travel agent or their website(s) and get satisfactory answers to the following questions:

  • Accommodation: Is it Suitable?

The majority of nightmare holiday complaints centre on medieval apartments with hygiene standards to flatter a Victorian brothel. You can avoid being placed in such squalor by asking to see a copy of OAG Gazetteer. This guide is held by most travel agents and provides an honest, wartsn' all assessment of hotels and apartments.

First, plan your trip. Consider how many people will be traveling, how long you want to be gone, and where you're going. It's easier to find all-inclusive packages for some vacation destinations than for others, so you may be better off booking through a travel agent if you can't find many deals for your destination. Flexibility is key in the planning process. If you can alter your travel dates or if you're open to staying in an area of your destination that's a bit farther away from the usual tourist attractions, you may be able to get a better deal.

Some travel packages imply that they cover certain expenses, but they actually don't. Taxes and fees may apply on quoted airfare rates, and you should always factor in extra costs of tipping and side travel that isn't included in the package. Even though some packages are billed as "all-inclusive," they may only include the bare minimum (lunch and dinner but not breakfast, for example). Plan for extra fees on your trip, and mak ...

The State Department issues Travel Warnings to recommend postponing travel to a country because of widespread civil unrest, dangerous conditions, terrorist activity or, in some cases, because the U.S. has no diplomatic relations with the country and may have great difficulty in assisting U.S. citizens in distress. Travel Alerts disseminate information quickly about terrorist threats or other relatively short-term or transnational conditions that could pose significant risks to you and affect your travel plans. U.S. embassies and consulates send out security or emergency messages to alert U.S. citizens to fast-breaking events, such as demonstrations, coups, approaching storms, and crime.

The Department of State urges U.S. citizens living overseas or planning to travel abroad to enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP). When you enroll in STEP, we can update you with important safety and security announcements. Enrolling will also make it easier for the embassy o ... Read more »

A trip to Germany doesn t have to break the bank you just need to know where, how, and when to go. If you make a few plans and have a look at your options before you book your trip you will find that it s quite easy to travel on a budget in Germany.

The first way to keep your trip on budget is to plan it well. From June to about September are summer holidays in Germany. meaning it can get busy on the roads and in the hotels. You will also be paying a premium for your lodging and fighting for space at local attractions, restaurants or festivals.

Mid or shoulder seasons (from March to May and from October to early November) attract smaller crowds. The weather is warm and balmy. In April and May, which is when the indigenous flowers bloom, it can be mild and sunny. It is not uncommon for summer to stretch even until autumn.

If you are traveling to focus on German city life and aren t spending too much time outdoors then winter may be the perfect time for you. It ... Read more »

Why is pet insurance a good idea for pet travelers?

As a pet owner, you must face the fact that your pet will most likely not outlive you. Pets age at a pace seven times their owners and are very likely to incur veterinary expenses during your time with them.

If you like to travel and bring your pet with you anywhere in the United States or Canada, you know that any emergencies will be covered with pet insurance.

Scammers use our logo and say they are using our company to ship pets. Email us and ask! PetTravel does not transport pets. ... Read more »

Are you one of a growing number of people who tend to travel hand luggage only in an attempt to avoid the cost of checked-in bags? If so, you may be throwing unnecessary money away by paying over the odds for your travel-sized toiletries.

Regular travellers will now be au fait with the 100ml liquid rule when passing through security but if, as a result of these restrictions you tend to buy mini versions of your normal toiletries at the airport, did you know that you could be paying as much as 750% more for the privilege?

Research by TravelSupermarket uncovered that travellers can end up paying 753% more per millilitre for mini toiletries than for their standard-sized counterparts and, in some cases, can actually end up paying more for a smaller version.

For example, a standard 150ml spray can of Dove deodorant can be bought for ?1 on the high street whereas a 35ml travel-sized version costs nearly double the price (?1.99) in the airport. And for those travell ... Read more »

Vehicles

The Travel Velocity and the Efficiency of Rocket Vehicles

It is very important and characteristic of the reaction vehicle that the travel velocity may not be selected arbitrarily, but is already specified in general due to the special type of its propulsion. Since continual motion of a vehicle of this nature occurs as a result of the fact that it expels parts of its own mass, this phenomenon must be regulated in such a manner that all masses have, if possible, released their total energy to the vehicle following a successful expulsion, because the portion of energy the masses retain is irrevocably lost. As is well known, energy of this type constitutes the kinetic force inherent in every object in motion. If now no more energy is supposed to be available in the expelling masses, then they must be at rest visavis the environment (better stated: visavis their state of motion before starting) following expulsion. In order, however, to achieve this, the travel veloci ... Read more »

You can opt-out at any time.

If you are like most students, you probably enjoy traveling to exciting new places with your friends.

Although Easter may conjure up images of giant rabbits and colored eggs for many people, the idea of taking a vacation around the Easter holiday (one that doesn t have anything to do with eggs or bunnies) isn t a bad idea. Sure, if you ve got kids you ll probably want to take that into consideration and pick a place that will at least have some fun local tradition the whole family can get into, but if you re just looking for an excuse to pack up and fly somewhere for a short break then let Easter be that excuse.
