| Time Out City Guides Tired of all those travel guides that only gives you a general idea of where you are going? I know I do. It is like all these guides are meant for the zip-by traveler who doesn't actually spend any time in a city or a location. They just "zip by", so to speak. When i go travelling, I hate it when I have to rush to the hotel, rush to the attraction, then rush back to the hotel and then off to the airport. That is not travel. If you want to really experience a city, you need to stay for a few days at least. And you will have to actually visit the city and not just rush along to take some photos and think you have experienced a country in its entirety. Anyway, Time Out Guides provides a more comprehensive guide to the different cities of the world. You can read up on what is happening there and more importantly, how to experience the culture, sights and sounds of that particular city. I must admit though, sometimes the information in these guides can be overwhelming. But hardcord travelers will love it. |

I want something new, something unique and something with some culture. Portugal definitely have it all. And their cuisine is famous throughout the world. Not to mention their wine.
