Um dia a conhecer Aix-en-Provence

Aix-en-Provence is the largest city in the Provence region and is known as the City of a Thousand Fountains. We visited churches, fountains, and even a cemetery where the famous painter Paul Cézanne is buried. We ended our visit with pizza and a cold drink to cope with the day’s high temperatures. Discover how to spend a day in the city and where to find ideas for things to do in the region.

Parque nacional de Calanques, clube de praia e tapas em Marselha

A boat tour to the Calanques National Park is one of the most unmissable experiences while in Marseille. But please do buy tickets for a tour that includes a stop for swimming. Trust me on this one. At the end of the day, after spending the afternoon swimming and bathing, we had the most relaxed meal at the L’Oli Bé restaurant.

Sul de França: Cassis, pôr-do-sol em Marselha e Bouillabaisse

Cassis, a small village in the south of France near Marseille, was one of the most beautiful places we visited on this trip. We also had an absolutely amazing sunset on our way back to Marseille, followed by a gastronomic experience which included the famous local fish soup, Bouillabaisse.

A explorar Marselha: Palais Longchamp e igrejas históricas

Second day of our trip to Marseille. The hot weather could be felt from the early hours of the morning, but before giving up and heading to Cassis, we visited the beautiful Palais Longchamp and the church Les Réformés, with its tall entrance towers and stunning stained‑glass windows. At the end of the morning, we visited one of the most famous places in Marseille, the basilique Notre‑Dame de la Garde.

Marselha: Navettes, Le Panier e Ciel Rooftop

We spent our first afternoon in Marseille uncovering the origins of the iconic Navettes and tasting them at a beloved local bakery. Then we wandered through Le Panier, the city’s quirkiest neighbourhood, before ending the night on a terrace overlooking the glowing Notre-Dame de la Garde basilica.

Podgorica, a capital de Montenegro

This is the last post about our trip to Montenegro. Today we’re talking about Podgorica, including the Niagara Falls (yes, that’s right), Gorica Park, the Millennium Bridge, and the Temple of the Resurrection of Christ. It turns out Podgorica isn’t as boring as its reputation suggests.

Parque nacional Prokletije

Before heading back to Podgorica, we detoured into Prokletije National Park where we visited natural springs, waterfalls, and we had the cheapest meal of the whole trip. We even made a special friend along the way. All the details are finally in.

Parque nacional de Durmitor (parte II)

This post is about a scenic route around Durmitor National Park — the canyon, the mountains, the small villages — all of it gave us breathtaking views. There’s nothing like the golden light of sunset setting the mountains on fire. And of course, we had to try the zipline across the Tara Canyon, the highest in Europe and the second highest in the world. Talk about adrenaline, right?

Parque nacional de Durmitor (parte I)

The first stop in Durmitor National Park was Žabljak, the main town of the area, where we stayed for two nights. In Durmitor we found a very traditional restaurant with delicious food and even a place to have burek for breakfast. Our exploration of the park started with Crno Jezero, the most famous glacial lake in Durmitor.All the details now available.
