Porto Yacht Tour Review - Douro River Cruise Experience




During my trip to Porto, I joined a morning yacht tour along the Douro River, and it turned out to be one of the best experiences of my visit!





The tour started from the main port in Porto and turned back near the Porto district, offering a stunning view of the city and the famous bridges along the Douro River. I made my reservation in advance through GetYourGuide.

There were two local Portuguese guides on board and about six participants, including me, so it felt like a cozy and private tour. The tour was conducted in English and lasted around two hours. We enjoyed local wine throughout the cruise, and the best part? They kept refilling my glasses endlessly with some snacks. 





The weather was perfect, sunny and bright, but the wind was quite strong, so I highly recommend bringing a windbreaker or light jacket. Don't worry if you forget, though; they kindly provided warm blankets for passengers.






It was such a relaxing and scenic experience, sipping wine, feeling the breeze, and enjoying the scenery over the Douro River. The peaceful water, city views, and the local hospitality made this yacht tour unforgettable.






If you're visiting Porto, I highly recommend adding this Douro River yacht tour to your itinerary!

Malaysia Kuala Lumpur Trip - National Elephant Conservation Centre

Image
  I visited Kuala Gandah, Malaysia to see elephants at the National Elephant Conservation Centre.  https://maps.app.goo.gl/CzSr5XzXhjtfAymB6 The operation time is 10:30 AM ~ 15:30PM. I recommend visiting early since the place closes quite early in the afternoon. I took about 2 hours by car, but we stopped by a rest area and had some snacks.  Luckily, the weather was clear and there were plenty of parking spaces available. Before entering, visitors need to fill out a short registration form. The entrance fee is free, but donations are welcome to help support the center.  As soon as I entered, I could see the elephant right away!  To feed them, you can buy bananas or bamboo for 3RM (bamboo) only in cash. You can also get a schedule leaflet from the reception to check the time for the shows and other information.  There was a baby elephant section, too. It's surrounded by a large fence compared to the big elephants, but you're still allowed to feed them freely...

✈️ How a Wireless Iron Got My Suitcase Locked – TSA Trouble on My Flight

Image
I recently flew to Saipan from Korea and had an unexpected issue with my suitcase - all because of a wireless iron I packed.  Before boarding, I received a call from the airline staff saying they needed to remove my wireless iron from my checked-in suitcase. Since it was locked, I gave them the combination code.  My suitcase is a Swiss Military Seraphic 28-inch model, which uses a three-digit code lock system only. However, when I arrived in Saipan and picked up my suitcase, I noticed that the lock code had been changed.  Even worse, one of the dials could now be opened with any random numbers. On top of that, I was unable to reset the code myself.
