Dear travellers,
I will be spending time near Dubrovnik in August.
Later, I plan to go to Rome.

The backs are packed, and I'm ready to go...

Since I will be in Amsterdam next month, but only for a few days, I was
wondering if someone can explain to me how to get to the Amsterdam Arena?
From the center of the city, or some known station, street, museum....

I'm wondering how much in Euro's is a fair price to pay for a taxi from
Paris Nord station to the Eiffel Hilton in Paris, and approximately how much
of a trip it is (in miles/minutes). We'll be arriving at Nord station on the
Eurorail from London and I'll have to get my party (3 ...
