I'm hoping to spend a few weeks somewhere warm next winter - ideally not crazy hot, like 20-25 degrees Celcius. Where is reliably warm around that time of year, with natural beauty, good food, good people, maybe good history and culture too? ~2026-77409-4 (talk) 17:06, 4 February 2026 (UTC)Reply

@~2026-77409-4: Thailand is also nice at that time of year, and it should be dry season then too. Argentina and southern Australia have beaches but Dec/Jan might be too hot (up to your taste, ofc), keeping in mind it's rainy season in the South Pacific. //shb (t | c | m) 22:25, 4 February 2026 (UTC)Reply

Dubai is not considered safe for travel right now. As of March 2026, Iran has launched retaliatory drone and missile attacks on UAE territory following a US-Israel strike.

The US, UK, and Australia have all issued serious travel warnings.

The US Embassy in Dubai is closed. Most governments advise against all but essential travel to the UAE at this time.

Dubai has long been one of the world’s most visited cities. Millions of tourists fly there each year for luxury hotels, desert safaris, and world-class shopping. But March 2026 brings a very different picture. TayyabWiki (talk) 10:50, 15 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

As of 21st of April Dubai is considered safe for travel right now. Almajidy (talk) 08:55, 21 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

@Almajidy: is it? Australia, Canada and the UK all have the highest travel ratings for the UAE, which includes Dubai. It's probs safe from Iranian airstrikes though tbh, but probs not at the level where we'd be advising travelling there. //shb (t | c | m) 11:14, 21 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Some people posting here define safe in terms of direct risk of harm or imprisonment… others (and these govt advisories place a lot of weight on this, too) mean something more like "undisrupted". I tend to go with the former way, and that seems like the only thing the asker is focusing on. That’s not been much of a problem. But disruption actually seems likely. Safe, maybe, and the Dubai gov was (not sure if it still is) paying for tourists to stay in their hotels whenever the airport was closed. But if you care a great deal about getting home on time, or are worried about some force majeure clause in some insurance plan, yeah, maybe it’s not for you. TEMPO156 (talk) 18:24, 25 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Additionally, your UK warning does not have its warning at the highest level (do not travel). It’s a step below, saying people should go if they have a good enough reason. The UK ones are always the least sensationalist/hysterical. They’re actually well researched and have nuance. TEMPO156 (talk) 18:29, 25 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Those warnings tend to err on the side of hysterical exaggeration because governments want to minimize the number of people they'll have to evacuate if the situation changes to some extreme, remote hypothetical that no serious analyst sees coming. If your definition of unsafe is that flights get cancelled and you're stuck there for some time before being able to leave, then sure, I guess it's unsafe. But most people would define safety issues as risk of physical harm or detention, neither of which has ever been even a remote possibility in Dubai since the Iran war started. Sure, they can blockade and ground planes, but firing some missles against a country that Iran doesn't even really care about hurting and that everyone knows will just get intercepted is performative and it's completely illogical to think there's a meaningful risk of physical harm coming from that. Sure, a couple people got hit by debris and died, but you're at a greater risk from a routine car crash or moderate storm. TEMPO156 (talk) 15:21, 25 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

A realistic risk is that your insurance company doesn't pay for your additional expenses if you get stuck during a governmental travel warning. I cannot say much about the risk of the situation deteriorating, which could be a major problem for tourists regardless of any actual risk to life and limb. –LPfi (talk) 17:24, 25 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

That’s a good risk to bring up. The question was about safety, not expense. But I kinda sorta tried to raise that by mentioning you could be stuck there (though physically safe) for quite some time, which sounded expensive to me. But you are absolutely right to make that more clear. TEMPO156 (talk) 18:08, 25 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Insurance, of course, has force majeure clauses. But the obscenely wealthy Dubai gov started paying for tourists to stay in their hotels during airport closures when the war started. I need to research about whether they are doing this for new arrivals if that happens again, since the war is not a surprise anymore. But if the force majeure invalidates not just your travel, but your health insurance policy and you have a major medical bill, that could hurt financially. TEMPO156 (talk) 18:39, 25 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I'll bet many of them were out money due to the cancellation of their air tickets, though. Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:01, 25 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Which may not be a safety issue in the strict sense, but if someone is coming as a tourist, they may not consider it a "safe" investment if cost volatility is a concern. Honestly we're guessing what safe means when we should just ask TayyabWiki what their bar is. TayyabWiki, are you okay calling it safe if you are not at risk of military harm? Or do you consider upredictiability, unforseen expenses, and airport closures to make it unsafe? I could see how you would mean the latter if you wanted to visit as a tourist; if you're trying to make an urgent visit to meet someone, you have a good reason and may not care about these logistical issues enough not to go. Airlines generally will offer a free rebooking if the flights are canceled, though one may find themselves stuck on a long waitlist. Pretty much, we're all saying the same things here about what's going on in Dubai, but reaching different personal recommendations on worthiness based on individual risk tolerance. Everyone here agrees missile strikes may resume, but are unlikley to cause significant death. However, we also agree that supply chain disruption, airport closures, insurance policy invalidation, and price rises of essentials are significiant risks. Some see those last three and don't care, others do. Depends on why you want to go and how much risk you like to travel with. TEMPO156 (talk) 04:39, 26 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I think one consideration is whether risks are anticipated: if you get hit by a car, that would be seen as pure bad luck by most, and nobody would complain about our not warning about it (we don't have warning boxes even for crazy traffic) – but if bombs start falling, killing some dozen people out of a population of several million, people will be quite upset. Of course the latter is a tragedy, but risk-wise it is totally overwhelmed by the traffic deaths. –LPfi (talk) 07:11, 27 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

None of us have enough information from this person to know what they consider safe or unsafe, it depends so much on risk tolerance and how critical the trip is. Just asking if it's safe isn't clear enough. I don't want to tell a casual tourist taking their first international vacation to go. I also don't want to tell someone going for a wedding, critical business meeting, or to visit a dying relative to not go, nor am I going to worry about a tourist who's been to 100+ countries and can handle a little unpredictability. I can answer specific questions based on the person's needs if those are actually explained. Lacking that, more of my own tolerance will come out in my answers. User:TEMPO156 (talk) 07:28, 27 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

@LPfi: They did not respond to my ping above nor have they engaged with anything any of us have written. So we're basically just talking to each other about our personal risk tolerance, which isn't serving any real purpose. Should we just archive this thread? TEMPO156 (talk) 19:22, 27 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I mean this is a forum where we discuss this kind of stuff – I'd say it still has a purpose (and it is interesting to see how y'all perceive personal risk haha). //shb (t | c | m) 00:17, 28 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

It has a little bit of a different purpose than Wikipedia noticeboards that are trying to solve a problem, then. Yes, it is interesting to see that! Personally, I could probably count the number of places I wouldn't go on one hand, the news has just given people such an extremely exaggerated sense of how frequently bad things happen. People get shot in the U.S. all the time, and sure, we care, but do we feel unsafe every single day because of it? I don't think most people do. Yet we still see it as reasonable to warn Americans against going to places over the risk of getting shot when they will have actually just moved themselves to a place where it is less likely to happen to them than in their own nation. TEMPO156 (talk) 00:21, 28 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

@SHB2000: I'd also point out that like the UK, the US, which probably has the most reason to fear for its citizens in the region, does not tell people not to go to Dubai, telling them only to consider whether it's worth it depending on how important your trip is: [1]. And the US advisories tend to be the extreme ones; they mention a risk of terrorism, which is essentially a fiction since it has never happened in Dubai. So, really, you just have Canada and Australia standing alone in telling people it's some kind of dystopian hellhole they should avoid at any cost. Come on people, we are talking about an ultra-rich, pro-Western, pro-tourist country with a stable government that happens to be near a war, not in one. This thread reads more like we're discussing an active war zone like Donbas, or an impoverished country with terrorism and unstable government, like Somalia. TEMPO156 (talk) 20:37, 28 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I have been able to confirm that the govt reimbursement of expenses due to airport closures is not ongoing, but the airports are open, so this may very well come back if they close again. However, the airlines, including Emirates, have said people will always get full refunds and offered rebookings in the event of an airport closure, and can even request a refund for any reason even if the airport is open, up to 31 May. Emirates updated this statement just a few days ago: [2]. Personally, I'm too busy in my work life to risk being stuck there for a week or more because the airport is closed. But there is a difference betwen being inconvienenced and being unsafe. TEMPO156 (talk) 21:04, 28 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Donegal Town is easy to do by public transport but the outlying coast is difficult - it gets easier further south (eg the Clare coast around Cliffs of Moher), then Kerry again is tricky.

Hi everyone,

I’m currently planning my first trip to Istanbul and trying to create an itinerary that balances the main historical highlights with more local, authentic experiences. I’ll have around 4–5 days, so I want to explore beyond just the typical tourist route.

Sultanahmet is obviously on my list (Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, etc.), but I’ve read that it can feel quite crowded and I’d really like to experience other neighborhoods with more local character as well.

I’m particularly interested in:

• Photogenic areas (architecture, colorful streets, viewpoints)
• Neighborhoods with a strong local vibe
• Places where you can just walk and discover things without a strict plan

I’ve seen Balat, Fener, and Kadıköy mentioned quite often, but I’m not sure how they compare or which ones are best for a first visit.

While researching, I came across a couple of travel resources and overview-style guides (for example viaurbis.com and also some general background here: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estambul), which gave me a basic idea of the city — but I’d really value real experiences and recommendations from people who’ve actually been there.

A few questions:

• If you had to choose 2–3 areas besides Sultanahmet, which would you prioritize?
• Are Balat and Fener still worth visiting, or have they become too touristy?
• Is Kadıköy worth the time on a short trip?
• Any hidden gems or less obvious spots you’d recommend?

Thanks a lot in advance — really looking forward to hearing your suggestions! AfsinMat (talk) 17:31, 20 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

you seem to not have read neither Istanbul#See nor Istanbul#Do. Please do so. By the way, yes, Kadiköy is worth the time. Ibaman (talk) 17:43, 20 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Old City is crowded with must-see attractions and will absorb most of your time. Plus a day-trip across to Kadıköy (basically for the sake of the ferry ride) and maybe another to Princes Islands. Grahamsands (talk) 14:52, 24 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

"am i capable visit from one country to other"

Not really - it is complicated, but many foreign countries expect you to have money, so that you won't cause troubles in their countries, as Pashley has said. And if you are living in island nations, walking energy is useless. Saimmx (talk) 14:49, 1 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

As Sbb1413 said, minimum budget travel is the closest topic you can get of "if no money" on Wikivoyage.

If your "the specific place" mean "where can I go somewhere if I have no money", it depands on where are you from, and where do you want to go. If you are from New York City, I guess it is not a problem to visit Brooklyn, but it is a challenge if the place is Boston (Oops); And I will say it is impossibile if you want to visit Bangkok without money.

And as LPfi said, you need money when travelling, or even living. You may want to be a little more specific on "no money". Saimmx (talk) 18:58, 31 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Depending on where you are from & where you want to go, another problem may arise. Many countries have visa requirements that include having a ticket for a return flight and/or showing that you have enough funds for the trip. Pashley (talk) 19:12, 31 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Could you go somewhere interesting as a volunteer or with a working holiday visa?

One way to greatly reduce expenses (though never to zero) is to choose a low-income country as your destination; see Retiring abroad/Table for some possibilities. Note, however, that this almost always requires some income, preferably from outside the country: a pension, digital nomad work, or whatever. A local may be able to live by begging or with low-paid jobs, but a foreigner typically cannot. Pashley (talk) 19:45, 31 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

The U.S. State Department has removed its level four do-not-travel advisory for Venezuela, lowering it to level three on March 19 (consider carefully based on trip importance) [3]. They have removed any mention of arbitrary detention or government mistreatment, focusing only on crime and poor infrastructure such as in hosptials, due to poverty. Delcy Rodriguez has been very cooperative with the Trump admin and the U.S. embassy has reopened. Although she is already governing Venezuelans as a dictator, I think there is indeed no risk of her mistreating American tourists becuase she's so reliant on U.S. backing for now.

However, the country is extremely impoverished, leading to a high crime rate and gang violence. That seems to be the remaining concern. I'm curious if people here agree with the U.S. that Delcy taking over has essentially made the government no longer a threat to tourists. TEMPO156 (talk) 20:51, 28 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Maybe would be nice to hear from @Lord Ravager: or @Galahad:? //shb (t | c | m) 22:26, 28 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

It reads true to me since it's level 3 and they acknowledge there's still crime risk, just not risk from Delcy. Though there is no question the advisories have gotten more political under Trump. Most glaringly, El Salvador was lowered all the way to level 1 after the deal to send people to the Terrorism Confinement Center, which looks like a quid pro quo. Although level 1 is supposed to mean completely safe, the El Salvador advisory mentions that U.S. govt employees are banned from travelling outside at nighttime due to safety risks. How they can hold both those ideas in their head at the same time is beyond me and probably not worth devoting brain power to. While it is true that country is has become relatively safe compared to what it was, it strains credulity to say there is zero risk of crime Japan and to call it safer than Costa Rica (and every other Central American country), as well as Italy, the UK, France, and Spain, which is now the U.S. policy. El Salvador was the first sign to me that we may need to examine these advisories (whether they are too low or too high) more critically. TEMPO156 (talk) 19:55, 29 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello everyone,

I’m currently working on improving travel information about Pu Luong Nature Reserve in northern Vietnam. It’s a quiet alternative to Sapa with rice terraces, traditional villages, and great trekking routes.

I would like to ask:

- Should Pu Luong have its own full destination page on Wikivoyage?

- What key sections should be prioritized for a new destination like this?

- Any recommendations for structuring trekking routes clearly?

I’d really appreciate any guidance from experienced contributors.

Thank you! DanielTravel (talk) 08:57, 30 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

• My initial take is that Pu Luong would make a reasonable standalone article. It looks to be geographically large, sufficiently defined, distinct from any other well-developed tourist destinations we have content for, and has enough to do to be difficult to describe as a simple collection of WV:Listings.
• Take a look at the WV:Rural area article template (perhaps for W:Pu Luong Commune) and WV:Park article template (perhaps for W:Pù Luông Nature Reserve). Decide which one fits this destination best, and go from there. (It's easy to switch later.) IMO the See and Do sections are the most important.
• I'd start with a simple Do Listing (bullet-point paragraph) for each route. If that feels insufficient, take a look at some hiking/trekking destinations that show up in Guide-level parks for inspiration, there's many reasonable ways to organize treks.

Take a look at WV:Welcome, business owners if that applies to you, anything that sounds overly promotional will get reverted. Gerode (talk) 16:59, 30 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for creating Pu Luong. I have assumed that this is a Rural Area, and made some small formatting changes. Please continue and expand the article - details of the locations of the sights in See would be good. AlasdairW (talk) 22:08, 30 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I am looking forward to visit Santa Fe, in New Mexico. It is one of the United States' oldest state capitals in the country. Here are the few questions to consider that:

• Why is Santa Fe so unique in New Mexico, compared to other capital cities in United States of America?
• Where could I learn more about the Indigenous cultures of the Southwest, aside from the textbooks? Perhaps, the musuem?
• Why is New Mexican cuisine, considered to be a Herculean task, outside of New Mexico, although this capital, offers one of the most touristic dishes in this state?

OK, you might want to reread that:

"for those visitors that fall in love with the cuisine, finding it outside of New Mexico is a Herculean task, since most searches for 'New Mexican restaurants' will end up resulting in recently-opened Mexican restaurants"
