Picture This: Prague

9/20/2017

Just last week I told you how to spend a weekend getaway in Prague.

This week, I'm gonna expand on that post with Picture This, a semi-regular series on The Keith King Report where I show you some of the best pictures I take during my trips. You can find the first of the series, Picture This: Amsterdam, here.

The following photos are from Prague.

Your Guide to a Weekend in Prague

9/13/2017

2 Comments

Prague is a city with an extensive history. As an example, one of the main tourist attractions is the Charles Bridge, which was built in 1402. Let me repeat that date: 1402. That’s before the United States was even a thought. Heck, that was a full 90 years before Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue.

And that’s just the beginning. It’s also home to the largest castle in the world, a town square that’s everything a European town square should be, and an astronomical clock installed in 1401 that still works today.

There’s obviously plenty to do in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic. Here are some of the activities I would highly recommend during a short visit:

Last week I told you all about how you can spend three to four days in Amsterdam. You can visit that post here. This week, I thought I'd post some of the best pictures I took with my iPhone of the city.

Here they are:

Your Guide to a Short Visit to Amsterdam

Here in the U.S., if you tell someone you’re headed to Amsterdam, it’s not unusual for a smile to crack across the face of that person. Why? Well, you may already know. Actually, you may also have that same smile on your face.

Here’s the thing: to many, the one and only reason to head to Amsterdam is because of their coffeeshops. Yes, you guessed it: the kind of coffee shop that doesn’t sell coffee (email me if you’re not sure what they sell).

But once I landed in the Netherlands (quick side note: the full name of the country is Kingdom of the Netherlands), I quickly realized there’s a whole lot more to the city than “coffee.”

Europe for Two Weeks: Where We Went and How we Paid

8/16/2017

5 Comments

This summer I went back to Europe for the first time in a long time. Over the span of two weeks, my fiancée and I took in the Netherlands, Czech Republic (or Czechia, if you prefer), Germany, and Switzerland.

Many of you have asked how I paid for the trip. I covered the flights here. Yeah, free flights by transferring 110,000 of my Chase Ultimate Rewards points to a few of Chase’s travel partners (United and Air France). Taxes, unfortunately, still have to get paid, so in addition to my points, I paid $250.

Once we landed, here’s where we stayed and how much it cost:

11 Travel Movies That'll Motivate you to, well, Travel

I watch a lot of movies. Along with reading good books, movies help me escape. They help me “get away” for a few hours without having to leave my home. After all, isn’t that what a good movie is supposed to do?

So I thought I’d create a list of movies that’ll, in their own way, inspire you take chances and explore the world for yourself.

If you could go anywhere this year, where would it be? I don’t know what your answer would be, but according to Travel and Leisure, the best city in the world to visit this year is San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. It’s about 3 hours north of Mexico City.

The top city in the U.S.?

7 Books That'll Give you the Travel Bug (w/ Big Announcement at the End!)

I haven’t always been the biggest reader. But as of late, it’s been something I’ve been doing a lot more of. Whether it’s to learn, to escape, or for something else, I like a good book.

And if you spend a lot of your time in a plane, train, or automobile (audio versions may be best for the latter), a good book should always be towards the top of the list when you’ve got time to kill. So if you’re looking for a good read or two, this list is one to bookmark:

I’d like to think I run a pretty good travel blog. And if you’re a regular, you probably do too.

But as much as it sucks for someone like me who is trying to get a leg up in the travel blog world, I have to admit that there are a lot of good travel blogs out there. And I love reading them. The travel stories they tell, the tips they give. The good ones keep me motivated.

With that, here are some of my favorites:

WATCH: High Drama in new Documentary: Secret Life of the Long Haul Flight

6/14/2017

One of my favorite things to do is to kick back and watch a good documentary. But when I find a documentary about the airline industry, I’m about as happy as a pig in mud.

If you’re interested in what life is really like at 40,000 feet in the air, you’ll love Secret Life of the Long Haul Flight. The documentary follows a Qantas flight from London to Sydney (with a stopover in Dubai) on an Airbus 380.
