You absolutely need the adapters for the respective countries but you will not need a converter for electronics (camera, phone chargers, computers) as they are usually dual voltage. You can tell by looking at the very fine print on the device plugs and you will notice that they say 110v-240v...

I cannot wait to hear about the May trip. We are booked on the June 22 trip and are now hoping new Greek elections potentially on June 17th are not disruptive. Feeling snake bitten as we had to cancel our Egypt trip over Christmas last year for political issues.

I would think that normally waiting is fine but given that the Greece trip is new there is likely some pent up demand. I heard that the 6/22 trip sold 60% the first day. Accordingly, I would not wait.

That's a nice trip. We did it last year. I noticed that a lot of the trips showed up today with wait list to start. Very odd. We booked a triple today for the 6/22 trip to Greece. They likely just need to confirm that the hotels configurations that they blocked out can accommodate a change...

We have one daughter she will be 14 by the trip. We've done a few of these trips and the kids "thing" always seems to work out. A couple of year back we went to Germany and there were no girls within 5 years of our daughters age but a quite a few boys. The boys always went out of their way to...

Scooby, the trip starts in Athens and ends in Crete. So, fly in to Athens (ATH) and out of Heraklion (HER). I suppose we will do a commuter back to Athens or Rome to get home.

Well, after waiting on hold for 10 minutes, I managed to book the 6/22 trip. Now we can figure out the travel and any add on dates. It's crazy that I feel rushed to book next summer's vacation before labor day this year. Ah well, at least we have a year to look forward to the adventure.

We have gone on several Disney trips. No matter what you decide it is always best to get in a least one day early to adjust to the time zone change. Adding a few days after is fun although it is a bit of a mental let down when you depart and no longer have your ABD traveling companions. We...

I believe that the transportation benefit is only the current perk for Insiders. The perks can change to something else that is perceived to be both a financial benefit and an improvement to your experience. So if the limo to the airport doesn't do 'ya, maybe the next thing will.

August 30th is the release date.

We stayed at the Hilton in Sorrento on our trip summer of 2009. It was kind of like a "beach" hotel in that it is a little worn but not depressingly so. The common areas are nice, the pool area is great (especially for kids). It's definitely not a a 5-star but more like a 3.5. It is...

We are booked for the Dec. 20 trip. Given what we have witnessed the past few days there is now a wonderful new dimension to this trip that goes beyond just ancient ruins and pyramids. We are very much hoping that things stay together enough to go and don't mind the uncertainty that we will...

It is definitely a must do. We hired a private guide from Context Tours and it was quite frankly one of the best museum experiences that we have ever had. The Borghese does not actually allow tours but this was done like friends walking through the gallery. Your time in the gallery is...

I don't recall any walking that is overly long. Indeed, you may want to do some on your free time, exploring, shopping, etc., but all the the tour walking is very entertaining even for kids and not stenuous. What you hope for is some other kids around the same age in your tour. They usually...

We took a couple of days and went to Salzburg from Munich. It's only about 90 miles away by car and a straight shot on the autobahn which means about an hour or so. There are things to see along the way too, such as the Eagles Nest which aside from the history has the most incredible top of...

We took the trip at the end of June last summer with our then 10 year old daughter. This was a second ABD trip for us after having done Knights and Lights the summer before. Overall, the trip was fantastic. First of all, make sure the Disney people know you have a birthday. They will make...

We are going on the June 12th trip with our daughter. Will let you know how it went when we get back.

Could be. We are departing in the late afternoon of the 19th on Delta. We booked the extra day in the front but have not yet made any plans. The extra time does help though with adjusting to the time change.

We are booked for the June 21st trip to Germany. We are arriving a day early flying out of Atlanta. My wife and I are bringing our 10 year old daughter. We did London-Paris last year and had a wonderful trip.

I think it's a new adventure this year but I agree that it looks wonderful for kids.
