A 5 hour tour given by Brazil Expedition that includes a short hike showing the best view of the beaches, the Christ Statue,the old Santa Tereza neighborhood, and an interesting work of art in downtown Lapa. It shows you many sides of Rio that aren´t easy or as enjoyable to see on your own with fluent english speaking guides. Great tour, great sights, great experience and great price, I highly recommend it!
Sells fantastic Vietnamese food and all profits from the restaurant and sales of postcards etc are given to the excellent Blue Dragon Childrens Foundation, who work with street children and children who have been trafficked in Hanoi and Hue.
Down by the riverside, close to the market.

A charming house for rental in the city centre of Les Sables d'Olonne, Vendee. Could not be better.
I stayed around Baggot Street a few weeks ago. A great location, there are great pubs and restaurants and it's just a few minutes' walk from Trinity College.
I can recommend Dohney & Nesbitts pub, a very traditional pub and great fun and then across the street is Toner Pub, different crowd, but again traditional. Stayed in Baggot Court Townhouse and then for a change moved to Fitzwilliam Square and stayed at Fitzwilliam Townhouse, great places to stay, Georgian buildings and, most of all, good value.
