| Tip | Travel Resource | Bahn/Eurail Train (Germany) | You can take a bike on some trains in Europe, but it does depend on the type of train. For example, it’s usually not possible to take your bike onto most high-speed trains, but you often can on regional trains.To find out if you can take your bike onto a particular train, check this online timetable: http://www.bahn.com/i/view/GBR/en/index.shtml. After filling in your departure and arrival station, you can select the option “carriage of bicycles required”. You will then be able to see the trains that have enough space to carry a select number of bikes.Before getting on the train with your bike, you do need to get a ticket for the bike and (if possible) book space for it on the train. | 0 | |||||

| Tip | General Info | Ted's suggestions | Paris - Catacombs (get in line 1.5 to 2 hrs before opening well worth it) - Visit l’arc du triomphe instead of Eiffel (if set on Eiffel – book tickets online 7-10 days before visit or wait 3-4 hrs in a queue) - Visit Musee D-Orsay not the Louvre. Amazing work showcased (lots of impressionists), not as busy, and museum building is a conversation itself. - Walk the Seine – From Notre Dame to Eiffel | 0 | 0 | 0 | |||

| Accommodation | Bed and Breakfast | Maryline in Alençon | TERRIBLE experience! The listing promised a studio apartment with a bathroom and kitchen. The property is not in operation. She switched us to someone else's property which was a bedroom in a flop house which reeked of cat litter. I couldn't stay there because of my asthma and the cats, so they put us into the correct property, but because it wasn't in operation, it was empty, there was no hot water and no wifi. BAIT AND SWITCH - extremely awful! | 70 | Alençon | 0 | |||

| Tip | Handy | Bicycle Island - Isle of Wight Cycle Map Best cycle map (and resource) for Isle of Wight | I picked up a couple of maps for Isle of Wight in Southampton. I wasn't completely happy with either of them, but I thought that by using them together I could figure out a decent route. When we got to our bike hire place, they had a map on the wall which looked awesome to me, and showed more routes than were on my other maps. I asked the guy if they had any and he said no, and then criticized the map, saying it was hard to read. When we made it out to Seahorses, they had this map for sale for £5, so I bought it. It is completely awesome! It shows routes that no other maps shows. It includes information about the bike-friendly buses (in case we need them). It includes information about all the bike shops and services on the island. It has turned out to be my main resource for this trip. Love it. | 0 | |||||

| Tip | General Info | Michelle's plan | Michelle's Plan I'm staying at Mercure City Centre Hotel. It is very close to Deak Ter, where all the metro lines meet (except perhaps the M4, the new line, which may or may not be actually running by the time we travel). Your hostel appears to be very close to the Nagyvarad Station, which is on the blue line (M3). You can take that metro one way towards Deak Ter, which is in the city centre, or one stop the other way to Nepliget Station, which is right next to the bus station, where we catch the bus to Kalocsa. As for the schedule, I arrive in Budapest on August 14 with my tour and spend the night. On August 15, I move over to the Mercure hotel and check in. I haven't figured out what I'm doing that day yet, likely exploring downtown or Andrassy ut (the old part of town) or perhaps going over to the Buda side to the mineral baths there. For our trip to Kalocsa on August 16, it looks like there are buses just about every hour or so, from the station near your hostel. I looked up the prices online and it looks like the ticket is about $12 each way. | 0 | 0 | 0 | |||

| Accommodation | Hostel | Hostel Cristal Roche | 2 nights Very convenient location. Room is large and nicely decorated. This should not be called a hostel. There is no common room and the kitchen is completely inadequate. It is not plumbed. There is a stovetop and small fridge, but no water. Water and dish washing would happen in the bathroom, although we basically didn't use it. The kitchen is tiny, cluttered and full of dirty ashtrays. The listing said WiFi in all areas but there was no WiFi while we were there. The bed was unmade and linens provided didn't seem to fit the bed properly. The room wasn't particularly clean - there were papers on the floor and someone's pants and underwear in the bathroom cupboard. The proprietor doesn't seem to have read the \"special requests\" where I indicated that we would need space for two bicycles. She was completely surprised by that and refused to let us bring them into the building -instructing us to lock them up on the street. I'm not saying that the property is obliged to provide space for bicycles, but if she'd sent me a message to let me know there was none available, it would have saved a lot of hassles for us all. | 150 | Rijeka | ||||

The room is in a neat old building in Zadar's old town - a fascinating experience for someone like me from the \"new world\". The proprietor is friendly and helpful and extremely fast at answering e-mails - great communication. She met us out on the street in case we were having trouble finding it (which we were). When there was an issue with the WiFi she addressed it immediately. The electric WC is interesting (albeit a little disturbing). Bring a flashlight for any late-night WC-visits. The hall light is on a timer which doesn't last very long. The walls are very thin and we had noisy neighbors coming in late at night both nights. Oh well. The proprietor can't control that! | 80 | Zadar | ||||

| Accommodation | Pension | Rada Guest House | 2 nights Incl breakfast Jezerce 17, 53231 Jezerce, Croatia Rada is fantastic - so hospitable, friendly and helpful. The property and rooms are great and the breakfasts are wonderful. Extremely convenient location - there is a walkway nearby (from Mukinje) that takes you directly to Plitvice Lakes so you don't have to walk along the highway if you're on foot. The bus stops right at the end of the road, too - you don't have to go all the way to Entrance 2. Wifi was strong and reliable. | 159 | Jezerce | ||||

| Accommodation | Pension | Apartments Aura | Three nights Silvija Strahimira Kranjcevica 3A Gruz If you don't mind walking, it's in a great location in between Lapad Beach and the Old City and handy to the bus depot. Detailed directions to find the property were e-mailed ahead of time and very helpful. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The property has a beautiful sitting area in the courtyard. There is a long list of very strict rules and dire consequences posted on the wall. These should be communicated on the Booking.com posting so people know what to expect. We found them very off-putting. Also, WiFi was very weak and unreliable. | 217 | Dubrovnik | ||||

WiFi is strong and the property is nice, clean and comfortable. Convenient to downtown core. 5km from bus depot (although Amar solved that problem by picking us up in the rain). Taxis in Sarajevo are challenging and difficult, but again, Amar solved that problem for us too by driving us to the airport early in the morning! | 101 | Sarajevo | ||||

| Activity | Tour | Sarajevo Tunnel of Hope | The Sarajevo Tunnel had been constructed between May 1992 and November 1995, during the Siege of Sarajevo in the midst of the Bosnian War. It was built by the Bosnian Army in order to link the city of Sarajevo, which was entirely cut off by Serbian forces, with Bosnian-held territory on the other side of the Sarajevo Airport, an area controlled by the United Nations. The tunnel linked the Sarajevo neighbourhoods of Dobrinja and Butmir, allowing food, war supplies, and humanitarian aid to come into the city, and people to get out. | 15 | 0 | 3132 | 3132 | ||
| Activity | Tour | Sarajevo Olympic Bobsleigh and Luge Track | The track was damaged as a result of the siege which occurred during the Bosnian War. During the siege, the track was used as an artillery position by Bosnian Serb forces. Today, the tracks still remain mostly intact with war wounds of defensive fighting holes, drilled into one of the last turns of the course. The tracks today are mainly used for graffiti and bicycling. | 0 | 0 | 3132 | 3132 | ||
