Travel Blog of Albee Travel offers you a sneak preview of assistance and different options that are offered on this website. I have tried to take a page of what each country offers you and advise what might be best for you. A travel blog of each destination that I have personally traveled to so I this travel blog is from different ideas from a locals prospective.

Planning a travel can be daunting, but there is always something extra to find out, whether a tour, accommodation or sight to see.

A prime examples are accommodations in New Zealand offering nature walks to see the native sealife that is seen in the area, or how about an overnight tour on a fjord that is only accessible by water or air. For a true wildlife experience the lower west coast of the South Island offers a chance to view New Zealand's sea wildlife, but if you did not know where it is easy to drive right past it. For another experience with wine, did you know that there are wine regions the length of New Zealand, even around Queenstown where grapes are growing out of desert like ground, or on a island just 40 minutes ride from downtown Auckland. How about activities, there is caving in both islands, or visitng a glowworm grotto to best describe it as being the Milky way of glowing worms underground.  

 

In Australia how about a walk to see Australian wildlife within a short drive or a major city, or an accommodation in the midst of the outback or rainforest. I have visited every state and territory within Australia and have some of my Australian pictures on the website. Australia is such a huge country to visit and flying is the only way to get between major cities within 1-3 hours flight. But there are wonderful driving routes where there are interesting stops along the way. The Great Ocean Road is a good example and most people travel from Melbourne on a day trip; But how about spending a couple of extra days and driving through to Adelaide, the gateway to wineries and the wildlife of Kangaroo Island.

In Tahiti a 5 star resort situated on its own island or the cost eating in Tahiti are the hidden examples. This is where my assistance is able to help you out plan not just a vacation, but able to give you memories of such a wonderful destination that you did not think was possible. The variety of islands and bungalows are unique unto themselves which have something special for all. Each island is very unique to themselves with Moorea being mountainous and taking 3-5 hours to drive around. Yet Bora Bora main island only takes 30 minutes, but with that amazing lagoon with motus (small islands) scattered around the outside of Bora Bora then it will take you longer to travel.

 

Independent Travel

Independent travel offers an opportunity to meet the locals on their ground, allows time for you to “open” your eyes, and a way to discover another country’s culture. I will always remember the food shop in Cairo, even when we could not speak each others’ language, the shopkeeper and I had a mutual respect which left me with a wonderful experience.

 

Although independent travel is not for everyone, a little independence in a vacation can leave a lasting impression. A chance meeting can also be a positive feature. I remember clients who stayed in Tahiti for 3 nights, and started talking with the airport transfer person. The next day they went on a Tahiti island tour, met his family and enjoyed a meal in his home. The funny thing was that they said to me before they left that they did not know what they were going to do!

 

Spontaneity can be also a wonderful feature of independent travel. This is why I always plan a free day while on an independent travel vacation. It not only allows time for a relaxing moment, but an experience if you have a chance meeting or a walk by activity.

 

Independent travel is New Zealand offers such an opportunity by two different types. First are the independent bus tours. It is like a coach transfer between the towns and cities of New Zealand, but when you arrive at the hotel you are by yourselves, free to explore. It is then you will enjoy the Independent travel of New Zealand in style.

 

Secondly, New Zealand has the self drive independent vacation. This is with either one or a mixture of the following accommodations; Bed and Breakfast, hotels and New Zealand Lodges and the later is becoming more and more popular. It is here that knowing the locations of the lodges that with not all that much more money from a hotel or Bed and Breakfast, that you can enjoy the best of a New Zealand lodge. They also have wonderful options such as New Zealand native forest and wildlife walks.

 

Australian independent travel is also popular in Australia, but there are not the Australian Self drive independent travel opportunities as much as in New Zealand independent travel. There are, however still places within Australia with Australian Self Drive independent travel can be possibility. The Great Ocean Road between Melbourne and Adelaide is the most popular and then the Princess Highway between Melbourne and Sydney offers a longer travel.

 

Given that I have traveled around the world twice independently and I have seen the enjoyable and the not so enjoyable parts of the travel. It is also my personal favorite way to travel; but not for everyone. Allow yourself time to contact me at 888.500.2528 or email me (click here) and if you would like further information, please visit my website www.albeeco.com  When you are browsing my website; please note that the majority of photos on the website are mine. I have over 3,500 pictures and have put a few of them for all to enjoy! Talk to you soon.
Travel - How to plan

Travel is a wonderful part of life.

 

 

It is with travel that you can be educated, learn to appreciate your life, or just sit back and relax and watch the world go by. Whatever your reason for traveling, as a person who has worked in travel for over 8 years, both in Australia and the now the USA, I enjoy to the fullest in helping people plan their vacations. Planning a vacation is one of the most enjoyable experiences that you can do; as while you are planning it enables you get to learn about a small part of what the country is all about, and it also allows you open your mind to a new prospective.

 

 

Travel is a hard, as if you ask 10 people about a destination; you are going to get 10 different answers. There is always a place to not miss, hotel to stay in, a tour to do, or perhaps when it comes down to it is that it is your vacation and a list of pros and cons is the best way to answer your decision. The good part to help in planning a vacation or honeymoon or perhaps just to get away with me to any of the destinations with me is that if you come from one direction or perhaps you want to shorten your tour, then I can assist you with this, as with the destinations on my website is that I have good knowledge on them.

 

 

The reason that I have this website is that I have lived in New Zealand for over 25 years. I have come to appreciate this SouthPacificIsland destination as a place of fascination, wonder mint, and a place to enjoy the best of the outdoors. Living and being bought up in such a country you do not fully appreciate its beauty and just how majestic the countryside is. After I have traveled to over 40 different countries in the world, it is now that I see that each has very different and individual touring opportunities. But what I have come to know is that with New Zealand has one of the most scenery that both magnificent, photogenic, and is something that you watch for hours. With being so isolated New Zealand has wildlife opportunities for all to enjoy, and can be found not too far of the beaten track, but if you wish to get off the tourist track there are encounters to give you a lifetime of memories.

 

 

I have lived in Australia for over 14 years and during that time I have lived in both Melbourne, Sydney and both of their surrounds ; driven from Melbourne all the way up to Mackay, and over to Adelaide. It is a huge country that has a wide range of sights to see. The cities have a lot to offer with the Opera House, SydneyHarbor being the most known city icons, but Melbourne is a city just waiting to be discovered. With these places once you find them they offer the best of the best. The wildlife of Australia is icons that we all know, the Koala and Kangaroo and you can see in the wild with guided tours from Sydney or Melbourne. KangarooIsland also offers a chance to see many of these animals but also a BBQ in the bush and seals. Ayers Rock takes you into the mystic of ancient days and the beauty of the Milky Way with the Southern Cross.

 

 

Tahiti is honeymooners paradise offers a chance to sit back relax and watch the world go by; but also to be as active or inactive as you want to be. Those overwater bungalows, garden or beach bungalows or some with a private pool or view of the surrounds are not only seductive, but also offers the best of ideal relaxation. Planning a vacation to Tahiti can be daunting as well overwhelming because of the general cost, the different vacations offered, and just what to do. I have been very fortunate opportunity to visit Tahiti and made the effort to see these islands from a vacationer’s point of view along with the majority of hotels and resorts. With a chance to see the individual islands it gives me the advantage to give you the best possible advice and assisting about this very well known destination.
