                <description><![CDATA[A site that allows visitors to select restaurants, things to do with kids, attractions and some local inside information and bring this information together into an itinerary which can be emailed to family and friends or just printed out for later reference. Beats hurrying off to travel offices to find out what's on.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[I often visit Paris to see friends and family etc. Whenever I do so, I try to book all museum, travel and activities tickets in advance simply because I absolutely hate queueing.<br><br>In the last couple of years I've been using this online service called Allo-france, who sell everything from metro tickets to popular show tickets (lido de paris, moulin rouge, etc). <br><br>They're quite a small company which means they are very efficient at what they do and I have had excellent feedback from them.<br><br>I really recommend to anyone who is planning on going to Paris to at least buy their metro tickets in advance as they will struggle with the French metro ticket system when they get there. One of my favourites is also the Paris museum pass which gives you access to all museums across the city. Great for managing your time.]]></description>

For hotels they have a last minute section with great rates that are sometimes 50% discount from the standard price.]]></description>

I love the insight the author gives to things as basic as a traffic light, a cafe, or even the little green men responsible for cleaning the streets. Well worth a visit before your next trip.]]></description>
