Hey Pandas, What Memorable Tour Experience Would You Like To Share Here?
Vietnam. The people were so kind and friendly. Much better than I expected. Great food as well. I was amazed to see how hard many of them worked just to get by. Very humbling experience.Hey Pandas, What Memorable Tour Experience Would You Like To Share Here?
Not really a tour, but in the late 90s I took a riverboat down the Nile River in Egypt. So this story requires a bit of context, but in ancient Egypt the east bank of the Nile was the land of the living, and the west bank, was the land of the dead. Anyways, we're sailing down river, and it's the middle of the night, desert all around. The stars were like magic, you could see the band of the galaxy like a slash across the sky. Then this low fog rolls in of the west bank, and far in the distance, just above the night sounds, is a human voice. It's the call to the night prayer, so there must have been mosque somewhere off the river a ways, but the voice was very faint. The Muslim call to prayer is already this hauntingly melodic song, and the callers have the most beautiful voices. I'm not a religious man, and I don't believe in ghosts, but that night, coming from the west bank of the Nile, from behind that fog, it was like the dead were calling us.Hey Pandas, What Memorable Tour Experience Would You Like To Share Here?

A few years ago I went on a cruise that stopped in Tallin, and despite my lower expectations (I didn't even know that Estonia existed beforehand) the tour we went on made it one of my favorite countries. The city was beautiful, and the tour guide had plenty of stories from being a tour guide in the USSR.Hey Pandas, What Memorable Tour Experience Would You Like To Share Here?
Corcovado National Park in Costa Rica, one of the most biodiverse plots of land on the planet! Our expert guide found & helped us photograph sloths, anteaters, tapirs, scarlet macaws, snakes, brilliant blue morpho butterflies & more, between a boat ride, some hiking, the best fruit ever & a grand lunch - what a day!
