Benagil Cave Tour- Review Taruga Benagil Tours

What trip to Algarve, Portugal would be complete without a Benagil Cave Tour? If you enjoy water activities and sports, seeing the most popular of all the maritime caves in Portugal should be at the top of your things to do list on this trip.

However, choosing the best way to go about seeing the Benagil Caves can be overwhelming. While walking in the streets of Lagoa you will see countless stands that advertise boat tours. It’s tough to walk several feet without a stand representative giving you a verbal invitation.

My husband and I chose to book our boat tour through our hotel concierge so we didn’t have to make an impulsive, pressured decision in the street. This proved to be a good choice, since we had a fantastic experience with the recommended company- Taruga Benagil Tours.

If you are planning to do to a Benagil Cave Tour, there are important things you should know before you go.

Benagil Cave Tour Review- How and When to Book

We visited the Algarve the second week of April. From my experience, European countries aren’t ever too hot during that time. The weather we had was in the mid 60’s each day (Fahrenheit), which is fairly mild compared to what registers in the summer months.

Apparently, our trip was just before peak season starts in the Algarve, so it was not too crowded. We were advised by one person at our hotel that since boat tours leave every hour, we didn’t need to book in advance. But on the first day we wanted to go, I decided to check before we drove to Praia de Benagil. On that morning we learned through a phone call to Taruga Benagil Tours that the only available time left was at 3.30 pm. This was too late for us, given we had other places we wanted to see. So, we officially booked a tour for 11.45am the next day.

This time worked perfectly for several reasons. Foremost, it was not too hot by the time we went out to sea on the boat. The sky was slightly overcast, but the sun’s strength was still high. I wish my husband and I had brought sunscreen because we both developed a little red tint the next day from our Benagil Cave Tour experience.

If you are planning to book your tour experience prior to arriving in the Algarve, know that sea conditions can dictate a lot too. It would help to be flexible with your plans. There was a ‘coastal event’ several days prior to our arrival and Benagil Cave Tours were cancelled on those days due to water conditions.

Benagil Cave Tour Review- What to Bring and Wear

This is where we made our biggest mistake. Because we anticipated chilly to mild temperatures when we checked the forecast prior to our flights, we packed mostly jeans and long sleeve shirts. Luckily, each of us threw a pair of rugged shorts and a t-shirt in to our suitcase as a last minute ‘fingers crossed’ effort in packing. That’s what we wore on the tour.

You should plan to wear clothes that could get wet and have water shoes too. You will need to step in to the water to get on and off the boat. If you are lucky enough to stop on a beach in a cave during your tour, you will be on and off the boat more than once.

benagil-cave-tour-review-taruga-tours-algarve-portugal
Beach inside a cave where we stopped for a 10-15 minute photo opportunity

I didn’t have a backpack so I threw my important stuff in a tote bag I had received from a blogging event. I left my Michael Kors handbag in the car boot during the ride. We didn’t encounter any big splashes, but I wish I had brought something more practical for an outdoor water activity. Luckily I had a plastic shopping bag that I put within the tote bag to use as a liner in the event we got hit with a big splash.

All the photos featured in this blog article were taken with my iPhone 13 Pro. But it’s important to note that I have a case with a ring on the back. Without it, I probably would’ve lost my phone at some point. Taruga Benagil Tours warns you to use your electronic devices at your own risk, for good reason.

Additionally, I used my GoPro Hero to take video during the boat tour. I wish I had brought a monopod stick with it with a wrist band, because it was really risky just to hold it in my hands.

Benagil Cave Tour Review- The Experience

Taruga Benagil Tours required us to arrive 30 minutes prior to the start of our tour. At the time we visited, the free parking at Praia de Benagil was easy to locate. The entire car park was nearly empty when we arrived at 11.00am. It was full when we left just after our tour around 1.15pm.

If you arrive early, you can wait on the small beach like we did. There are toilets available too. At the time I visited they didn’t have any hand soap so I was really grateful for the sanitiser wipes that I keep in my handbag for emergencies. We checked in at the ticket booth, paid for our tickets and received paper stubs to use at our tour time.

benagil-cave-tour-review-taruga-tours-algarve-portugal
My husband waiting on the beach for our tour

At exactly 11.45am we were divided in to two groups on the beach with the others who were waiting. Even though our boat could’ve fit 10 tour guests, ours had only 8.

For the promised 75 minutes we rode in the boat along the Algarve coast. Our Captain was very knowledgable in history and geology. As he drove the boat inside various caves he pointed out large rocks that did or didn’t allow boats to pass through depending on the tide. Additionally, he showed us cracks above us and how they were formed.

That was a bit terrifying for me because I have a big imagination. Some of the cracks had developed less than 100 years ago. And some of the rocks had landed around that time too.

If you are at all intimidated by choppy water or being inside dimly lit caves with low ceilings, this experience might not be for you. The ride itself was smooth and the Captain was an excellent navigator through the water.

Taruga Tours- boat used for Benagil Cave tour

There were tons of tour boats and other boaters on the sea that day. As indicated previously, they will cancel if the weather conditions prohibit a safe voyage.

When we disembarked the boat to visit the small beach inside a cave I created a Benagil Cave Tour TikTok to show you a little of what your trip with Taruga Benagil Tours could involve.

Benagil Cave Tour Review- Taruga Benagil Tours- Final Thoughts

I would highly recommend Taruga Benagil Tours to anyone visiting Algarve Portugal. They have been operational for 14 years and are very organised. Our tours were €30 each and were for the Traditional Visit, if you are researching options on their website. Please ask me any questions you have about the experience in the comments, and I will do my best to answer them.

You can see regular London tips and travel to places from London adventures on my social media. There are usually several on TikTok a day and a weekly YouTube video is published on Sundays. To make sure you never miss any Sunny News about London, it would be best to subscribe to the email list.

Advice for Visiting Hawaii for the First Time

Where is your dream holiday? Most Americans and British people choose Hawaii as a top destination. As an American living in London who has been to Hawaii several times, I am frequently asked for travel advice to my British friends who are visiting Hawaii for the first time.

Therefore, I always convey the things I found most surprising on my first trip to Hawaii. 

advice-for-visiting-hawaii for the first time

Advice for Visiting Hawaii- Cost

I anticipated that flights and hotels would be the largest expense. However, once I was actually on the islands I was surprised at everyday items that seemed to be priced higher than what I paid on the mainland of America.

Growing up in Florida, I am keenly aware of the ‘theme park price markup’ that you experience at places like Disney World or Universal Studios. When you consider basic geography, you can start understanding why the entire state of Hawaii can feel like you are paying ‘Disney’ prices everywhere. 

So much needs to be imported to Hawaii. And as you can imagine- this is not an easy process. This accounts for an overall feeling of inflation. Don’t let this surprise you when you arrive. It’s a necessity due to the state’s distant location from the US mainland.

One strategy to offset this is buying discounted passes to multiple attractions. You should take advantage of Hawaii travel passes to alleviate costs of activities that are non-negotiable on your holiday. I mean- why would you travel all that distance and not visit the top attractions?

Touring Pearl Harbour was one of the most moving experiences at a historic site I have had in my life. I literally can’t imagine visiting Oahu and not going to this location where the world’s history changed in 1941.

Additionally, if you are planning a trip to Hawaii, you can’t miss the Polynesian Cultural Center. It’s the #1 thing to do in Oahu- for good reason. It’s the best place to attend a luau and enjoy Polynesian food. You do want to at least try poi, right?

Also, research accommodation in vacation rental houses and apartments rather than staying in hotels. They’re usually cheaper and offer larger space. You can also save a lot on food and hotel parking, because it’s very likely you’ll rent a car while you’re on the islands. It’s much easier to get to attractions and sites if you have your own transportation. Plus, although the islands might be small, the distance between the many things you’ll want to do could be significant. Figuring out and taking public transportation could cost you a lot of time on your trip.

advice-for-visiting-hawaii for the first time

Advice for Visiting Hawaii- Geography

Another surprise to planning and visiting Hawaii is that you will need to take ‘Inter island flights’ if you want to see more than one island. And, if you are going to take a long haul flight to the state, you should make the most of the trip by visiting as many islands as you can during your holiday.

There are 6 main islands you could visit. If you plan to go to several, I suggest this order: Maui, Hawaii (‘The Big Island’) and Oahu. 

My rationale is that Maui is the most laid back of the options. You will most likely be very jet lagged when you arrive to Hawaii. Therefore, an island with a slower pace pairs well with the adjustment.

While it’s obvious that a tropical and casual atmosphere embodies Hawaiian life, Honolulu is very much a bustling and big city. It has the best nightlife of all the options in Hawaii. It has to best nightlife of all the options in Hawaii. This is why I emphasise that visitors make it their last destination while island hopping. It’s a place that you will want to approach with all the energy you have.

Advice for Visiting Hawaii- Beaches 

While the beaches of Hawaii are some of the most famous in the world, they were the most surprising to me. Growing up in Daytona Beach, I was used to a beach that was very deep and featured sand packed so hard that we drive cars on it.

Waikiki Beach is dazzling against a backdrop of Diamond Head and skyscrapers. However, Waikiki is actually quite small and narrow. It’s not the type of place where you would experience those cliche ‘long walks on the beach.’ It’s also really, really crowded so space is limited. 

Don’t be surprised if many of Hawaii’s beaches look like this…

advice-for-visiting-hawaii for the first time

Advice for Visiting Hawaii- Local Cohesiveness

Finally, there is a strong sense of a regional bond and ‘locals only’ community. Growing up in a very transient atmosphere in a beach town that catered to the hospitality industry, I understand what this is. When you live in an area that has so many people coming and going for a short amount of time, you form a tighter bond with those who share your every day experiences.

You need to rely on locals so much for your livelihood. Therefore, your social life is built around places you go to escape traditional tourist spots.

Hawaii has a strong sense of local connectivity. If you can reach out to and identify with the locals, you will gain insights quickly on the best places to be and see. They can point you to local treasures that aren’t over saturated on the internet.

advice-for-visiting-hawaii for the first time

Advice for Visiting Hawaii- Final Thoughts

The allure of Hawaii appeals to so many types of travellers. It offers cultural experiences, exotic sightseeing opportunities, relaxation activities. Those who love sports and adventure travel can also enjoy things like helicopter rides over volcanoes, gorgeous golf courses and a day watching surfers on the North Shore.

Hopefully, this advice for visiting Hawaii for the first time will help you start your trip planning. Please include your questions or ideas if you have been to Hawaii in the comments.

Kensington Suite- London’s Largest Luxury

Last night I attended the launch party for the Kensington Suite at the Kensington Hotel. The evening was simply smashing!

The staff greeted party guests immediately and serenaded us with champagne cocktails and beautiful canapés. Then after a bit of mingling, we received a first-class tour of the Kensington Suite.

This is one of two living spaces featured in this apartment style accommodation:

The second space can also be recreated in to a dining room, should a guest have that preference.

Kensington Hotel Suite London

Breath taking, don’t you think?

Spanning 180 square metres of space, the Kensington Suite offers 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It will be London’s largest town house suite that offers flexible living and sleeping space. In fact, it can be reserved as either one, two or three bedrooms.

Kensington Hotel Suite London

The classic 19th-century Parisian apartment-style accommodation is inches away from some of London’s best museums and equally as close to Knightsbridge, a prime spot for London’s fashionistas.

Who would ever want to leave?

Kensington Hotel Suite London

As I toured each room, I lost track of how many flatscreen LCD TV’s were on the walls.

Aside from all amenities (a private balcony with city views, Bose/iPad/iPone docking stations, walk-in showers and whirlpool baths, private decanter bar and Nespresso coffee machines) my favorite spot was this bedroom…

Kensington Hotel Suite London

I imagined myself waking up from a solid night of sleep in the silky soft sheets, sliding off this bed, sifting my feet across the heated bathroom floors…

Kensington Hotel Suite London

and basking in this for hours…

Kensington Hotel Suite London

With so many spots to relax with a bit of bubbly…

Kensington Hotel Suite London



Kensington Hotel Suite London

It’s clear why this will be the HOTTEST suite available in London for inner sunshine, my Sunny friends. However, what goes beyond the images is the impressive service offered in this privately owned hotel.

I had the fortune of spending several minutes with the CEO, Pat King as he walked up to me and introduced himself. We chatted for several minutes about the luxury hotel group’s numerous locations (London, Bristol, Dublin, Cork and Washington DC). Mr. King also wasn’t shy about recognizing the evening’s second biggest star (after the suite of course), Alessandro, the hotel’s mixologist magician.

If this stunning suite isn’t part of your current budget, I have two suggestions for you:

– Visit the hotel to meet Alessandro. While the hotel’s accommodations, ambiance and attentive staff prove why it’s at the forefront of boutique luxury, Alessandro is their secret gem.

I hear the recipe for his specially created mix of champagne, gin, lemon juice, and lavender will be posted on the Kensington Hotel’s Facebook page soon. Sunny friends, its smooth balance of bubbles and flowers exudes sophistication. Quite simply, it’s like drinking money.

I give a big round of applause to Denis Looby of Sheehan and Barry Architects, whose designs are featured in the Kensington Suite. And finally, thank you to the Kensington Hotel for a really suite evening.

Eurostar from London to Brussels in 1 minute

Yeah that’s right. The headline said, ‘Eurostar from London to Brussels in 1 minute.’ I’m not lying or being deceitful. Today’s post is a guide that will show you in one minute how to get from London to Brussels on Eurostar.

‘Ok, now what’s tricky Ms. Sunny in London up to?’ I can hear you saying through your screen. Unless you’re Harry Potter, I mean really Harry Potter, you know it’s not physically possible. But…

It’s simple. I put together a little video showing you the bare basics of what the trip from London to Brussels is like. Eurostar London to Brussels
And just to be a wee bit sneaky, it actually does show travel through hyperspace, but you will have to watch it to see how. Before you get too click happy, there’s a disclaimer.

This is my first experience on YouTube, so don’t judge too hard. Give me a few points for trying and check it out. After the video, I’ll share a little guide I put together on the Eurostar experience. Economy style, of course 😉

Phew! Glad my YouTube premiere is finally over. I know I need some work on this video thing, so thanks for not being too critical 😉

Now here’s the guide if you have more than a minute to continue:

Eurostar from London to Brussels- in London:

– Arrive to the international area of King’s Cross at least 45 minutes before your train is supposed to leave.
– Print your tickets at a kiosk set up in the station.
– Do not buy coffee before you go through security. I made this mistake and nearly spilled it everywhere.
– Have champagne at Searcy’s or somewhere in the station before you go through Eurostar security if you’re travelling in economy. They don’t have it on the other side. (Build extra time in for this based on your consumption levels!)
– Go through security.  The whole process is very thorough but crowd control is crucial when travelling on trains. You don’t need to separate liquids, take off your shoes, or do anything with electronic devices. Just have your ticket and passport ready. As an American living in London, I asked for a stamp. It’s all about the stamp. 😉
– Visit the small food and beverage restaurant within the ‘terminal.’ You can purchase beer there too, even at 9am.
– Charge your phone at the separate bar for mobile devices.
– Board your train about 20 minutes prior to when it’s supposed to leave.

Eurostar from London to Brussels- on the Train:

– Expect to be surrounded by muggles. Yes, it’s true. Harry Potter is only a fantasy. I had fully believed that if I got on a train to a foreign country, I’d be guaranteed a Potter sighting.Eurostar London to Brussels
– Load your luggage on the racks at the front of your individual coach. The overhead ‘compartments’ really aren’t that big.
– Put your luggage on the top rack if possible so you can see it as you travel. There will be 2-3 stops along the way. Other passengers will be boarding and leaving, so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on your stuff.
– Don’t expect much room in your seats. There also isn’t a place to charge your electronic devices.
– Expect a bit of ‘turbulence’ most of the way. Consider that before buying red wine at the bar.
– Consider turbulence before you use the loo. Just sayin’.
– Anticipate learning some foreign languages. Every message delivered over the PA system will occur in 3 different languages.
– Be prepared to stop in a few other cities before arriving in Brussels.
– Check-in on all your social networks. Suprisingly, you’ll have mobile signal (no free wifi) almost until you get to France. I checked in on Facebook at ‘Eurostar Under the Sea’ and tweeted this:

1st time on @Eurostar & I can't believe I'm getting 3G 'Under the Sea'. This ROCKS!

— Sunny in London☀️ (@Sunny_in_London) September 14, 2014

– Make sure you tag Eurostar too. They’ll likely retweet you and/or respond.

@Sunny_in_London Looks like it's going to be sunny in Brussels too today! Have a great trip!

— Eurostar (@Eurostar) September 14, 2014

Eurostar from London to Brussels- The Return

– Be prepared to spend more time at Border Control. It only took Mr Sunny and I about 5-7 minutes for the Border Control process to leave London. Leaving Brussels for London took about 30 minutes. EU Passport holders have a much faster line. I was in the Non-EU line. It was long.
– See above details. Everything else is pretty much the same.

Eurostar from London to Brussels- Final Thoughts:

Make sure you stay tuned on Sunny in London for my upcoming ‘Sunny in Brussels’ features. There’s a the hotel review ‘How Stella went on my Mini-Moon at Hotel Metrolopole Brussels’. And on the way will be posts showing tons of beer, chocolate, waffles!

If you’ve had the Eurostar experience, please share your feedback below. And of course, if there’s any questions I can answer about my trip, I’m happy to do so!

Florida Places to Visit for Sun and Fun

What are the best Florida places to visit for a long itinerary? The Sunshine State is huge! Most people just think of the theme park capital of the world, Orlando, for a Florida holiday but there are quite a few other options for travellers who also want to experience the Atlantic Ocean or Gulf of Mexico.

florida-places-to-visit-2019-orlando-daytona-st-pete

If you just visit Orlando, you’ll see pools and hopefully sunshine in Orlando. (Keep reading for why I said- ‘hopefully’) But, it is in the area we call Central Florida, and looking at a map you will see it’s not on either coast. So, if you want to sit in natural sand (not a theme park’s man-made version) the first thing you need to know is this will require extra time, a car, and interest in seeing other Floridian cities.

Florida Places to Visit- Why You Need a Car

Unlike Europe, public transportation and train travel is not popular in the US. The land is flat and most of what’s not near a coastline is swamp land in Florida. Unless you want to see gators, snakes and jaguars, you won’t need to spend much time too far inland. Mickey Mouse is the obvious exception to ‘wild life’. Know that Floridians gravitate to the water.

In fact, if you search ‘Alligator Alley’ you will find it is one of the few main highways that can take you from the Atlantic Ocean to the Gulf Coast.

When I was a child, Alligator Alley was what you envision in films. No gas stations and somewhere you don’t want to be stranded. The more popular highway by far is I-4.

The memes about Florida roads are comical because there is truth to them. Traffic on I-4 barely moves because anyone commuting to Orlando for work uses it. Tourists have to use it too. It also connects three cities that I feel would make a perfect trip to Florida. Renting a car is the only economical way to travel among them.

Florida Places to Visit- Orlando

Most people’s magical impressions of Florida are because they generally just spend time in Orlando, isolated at a theme park and hotel. While I have visited the Disney theme parks countless times, I am partial to Universal’s attractions. This is mostly because I worked there for a few years.

Let’s face it, if you’re a Harry Potter fan, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter is a dream come true at Islands of Adventure. And they just opened a new roller coaster! For those that have been to London’s Warner Bros Studio Tour, be sure to read my Harry Potter London vs Orlando comparison.

Harry Potter Orlando

Universal is definitely the more adult oriented theme park, if there really is such a thing. The rides are designed for thrill seekers and are some of the best in the world. The ‘mouse park’ down the street tends to have rides that you really just sit in little cars and travel through different sets and sound stages to see dancing dolls and other mechanical puppets.

Ahhh, I don’t seem very impartial here, do I?

Either way, these Universal and Disney with their parks and night life venues like CityWalk could keep you busy 24 hours a day.

However, Orlando offers excellent shopping opportunities too. The Mall at Millenia is exquisite. It’s high end shops like Kate Spade New York, Neiman Marcus and Prada could be appealing to British tourists because I generally find items are cheaper in the US. This is especially true when the dollar is low against the pound. Orlando’s International Premium Outlets will give you a great chance to score cool deals too.

And if it is basketball season, catching an Orlando Magic basketball game would be a big win. But you must book those tickets early!

Florida Places to Visit- St Pete/Clearwater

The Gulf Coast of Florida doesn’t get the international fame it deserves. But the Tampa/St Pete/Clearwater area is pristine and trendy. You’ll find many American restaurant chains launch in this area. It also has gorgeous golf courses.

Sunken Gardens would be Florida’s equivalent to London’s Kew Gardens, with an obvious tropical vibe. And of course, with so much access to water and sea life, the Clearwater Marine Aquarium or organised boat tours could be appealing to you too.

St Petersburg also offers something for art lovers to do, and that is visiting Dali Museum.

Florida Places to Visit- Daytona Beach

Of course, this Florida girl has to make a plug for her hometown for anyone who has time for a multi centre Florida holiday when planning places to visit in Florida.

Daytona Beach is best known for its flat, hard packed sand on which stock cars started racing. This beach car racing lead to the development of Nascar and made Daytona an iconic holiday destination for any race aficionado.

florida-places-to-visit-daytona-beach

If you want a beach that is wide and spacious, go to my hometown. The most relaxing locations to be are Daytona Beach Shores and New Smyrna Beach. With a car, you could visit the lighthouse in Ponce Inlet. And, obviously race fans would want to see the track at the International Speedway and maybe even take a tour or ride in a race car.

See for yourself how cool the Daytona Beach can be and learn where I suggest you eat in this short video I made while visiting Daytona Beach last summer. I shot it not far from the Daytona Shore Resort and Spa, one of my favourite places to go for their Sunday breakfast when I lived there. It’s also had the best reputation for a hotel in the Daytona Beach Shores area for decades.

Taking I-95 south to Cape Canaveral offers the chance to see Kennedy Space Center, which is a favourite of all Floridians. And just an hour north you will find St Augustine, which lays claim to being the oldest city in the U.S. Their Christmas Nights of Lights doesn’t quite rival Regent Street during the holidays, but it does prove that Florida has the holiday spirit. Even if it means throwing lights on palm trees and surfing Santa images.

Mr Sunny’s Trip to Florida- Theme Parks or Beaches?

With the abundance of Spring sunshine this year in London, I’ve really been thinking about my next trip to Florida, my home state. I made it there a few times in 2014, and my last trip was this past January.

What would really mean the most to me is having Mr. Sunny join me next time. He has never made a trip to Florida. He did spend a year living in California in his early twenties, but ironically ‘Mr Sunny’ has yet to step foot in the sunshine state.

To say that I was shocked is a massive understatement. Many people that I know who live in California have made the trip to Florida at one point or another, so I just find it odd as to why ‘Mr Sunny’ hasn’t done the same.

Even though I am super excited to show him the state I call home, I am also anxious because it’s a lot of pressure!

How do I create the perfect itinerary for his first trip to Florida?

trip-to-florida-orlando-daytona-beach-sunny-in-london

Of course we will definitely spend time at my mother’s new house in Daytona Beach. Not only would we spend quality time visiting her in her new home, but also Mr. Sunny could meet many of my friends from elementary, middle and high school.

Aside from having a stronger understanding of my life before London, he could also see what a great town Daytona Beach is. In fact, one of the first blog posts I ever wrote was 5 Reasons to Visit Daytona, the World’s Most Famous Beach.

However, I am thinking about spending some time in Orlando showing Mr. Sunny around the theme park town that’s central to everything in the state. With so many cheap flights to the United States, this trip to Florida is now even more enticing.

trip-to-florida-orlando-daytona-beachtrip-to-florida-orlando-daytona-beachI would really like to surprise Mr. Sunny with the ticket and itinerary, so I need your help.

These are the ideas I have so far:

Trip to Florida #1:

– Arrive to Orlando International Airport (MCO) and take a shuttle to a hotel that is part of a theme park resort.
– Stay three days in Orlando.
– Spend two of those days at theme parks.
– Spend one day shopping in the malls and outlet malls so Mr. Sunny can stock up on cheap trainers and jeans.
– Rent a car and drive the short trip 60 miles to Daytona Beach.
– Stay on the beach for a week and then return to London via Orlando.

What do you think of this, Sunny friends? Is two days enough time at Orlando theme parks? If you are from London and have never made a trip to Florida, would you be excited about this itinerary?

trip-to-florida-orlando-daytona-beachEven though I never feature pictures of Mr. Sunny, you know from reading the blog that he loves beer. In fact, that’s pretty much his favourite thing ever. I really think that he would just love chillin’ at beach bars and sipping cold beer while enjoying the Atlantic Ocean breeze. But, he also loves rides and roller coasters, like me.

trip-to-florida-orlando-daytona-beachtrip-to-florida-orlando-daytona-beachI am really torn about how to make his first trip to Florida extra special!

Another option would be for us to rent a car in Orlando and drive to the Sarasota area. I’ve always told Mr. Sunny that my plans are for us to retire and live on Siesta Key. It’s continuously voted one of the best beaches in America, and anyone who has been there to see its silky, white sand knows why.

trip-to-florida-orlando-daytona-beach

Trip to Florida #2:

– Arrive to Orlando International Airport (MCO) and stay the evening in O-town.
– Spend one day shopping and then travel to the Gulf Coast.
– Stay two days in Siesta Key.
– Drive three hours to Daytona Beach.
– Stay on the beach for a week and return to London via Orlando.

trip-to-florida-orlando-daytona-beachSo, should we skip theme parks and just hit a beach on each coast? If you had a personal tour guide for your first trip to Florida, what would you hope is planned for you?

trip-to-florida-orlando-daytona-beachI’m really looking forward to your help so please leave your experiences and suggestions below in the comments.

And, as always, thank you for reading!

The Bloomsbury Hotel- Where Smart People Stay

My evening at The Bloomsbury Hotel was a fantastic trip literally down memory lane. When I received the invite to attend the Poet in the City event, I did a double take at the address, 16-22 Great Russell Street.

It is my old address.

Well…. nearly.The Bloomsbury Hotel London Great Russell Street

If you read my About page, you learn that I lived on Great Russell Street when I did an internship with NBC News in Central London through Florida State University. So, how could I have passed this hotel several times a day and never have seen it?

Easy. It wasn’t there.

The Bloomsbury Hotel- The History

The building was designed in 1928 by Sir Edwin Lutyens and was originally commissioned as a YWCA Central Club.

Now that I remember!

No, silly, not 1928. I remember the ‘Y’ across the street from my flat, way back when I lived there in 1995.

The YWCA was started because there was no provision for club life in London. It was to ‘serve as a meeting ground for women of different nationalities and occupations’.  Since the Royal Family was fond of the Central Club, several rooms were named after royalty.

It was also used extensively from 1939-1945 for War efforts. The YWCA housed service men and women. Its cafeteria produced thousands of meals. There’s still evidence of bombings in some of the Hall windows.

While it was once a flourishing location in London, the YWCA was deeply hit by the recession in the 90’s. It’s final years were during the time I arrived in London to intern.

In June 1998 the entire building sold to the Jury Doyle Hotel Group. Jurys Doyle retained and restored the entrance area, Queen Mary Hall, the Chapel and the Library.

After the Jurys Doyle Hotel Group split in 2007, the hotel was relaunched and refurbished. That’s when it became known as The Bloomsbury Hotel.The Bloomsbury Hotel London

The Bloomsbury Hotel- The Literary Tradition

But it’s really the hotel’s deep appreciation for its literary roots that make it such a worthy place to stay. Bloomsbury is known for its community of authors and poets. It’s an area of London where Charles Dickens, Virginia Woolf and T.S. Eliot lived for many years.

Therefore, The Bloomsbury Hotel has established its unique identity by developing a strong relationship with Poet in the City.

The Bloomsbury Hotel- Library and Events

The Library is dedicated to Irish poet, playwright, lecturer and former resident of the hotel, Seamus Heaney. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1995. And Sunny friends, that’s the year I completed my internship in London. 😉The Bloomsbury Hotel

On May 1, an event was held to celebrate The Bloomsbury Hotel’s latest contribution to its literary community. It was a collaborative project between Poet in the City and fine art studios, Lavender Hill.The Bloomsbury Hotel

Poet in the City selected 10 leading poets. Artists from Lavender Hill painted portraits of the poets.
The Bloomsbury HotelThe portraits on display are Wendy Cope by Scott Pohlschmidt, Gwyneth Lewis by Ann Witheridge, Jo Shapcott by Jill Hooper, David Harsent by Nick Bashall, Patience Agbabi by Rosalie Watkins, Leontia Flynn by Phoebe Dickinson, Gerdur Kristny by India Amos, David Constantine by Joni Duarte, Imtiaz Darkhar by Archie Wardlaw, Andrew Motion by Scott Pohlschmidt and Seamus Heaney by Ann Witheridge.The Bloomsbury Hotel

They are anticipated to sell at a high profile auction in 2015.

The evening featured a special poetry reading from Leontia Flynn. She’s a Northern Irish poet and is the new Seamus Heaney Poet-in-Residence.The Bloomsbury Hotel London

If you’re looking for a smart hotel to make your stay in London extraordinary, I highly suggest The Bloomsbury Hotel. It’s inches away from the British Museum. Also, you can easily walk to the Charles Dickens Museum and take a tour. And, hey, if you stick your head out the window, you get a peak of my ol’ university flat.

WTM London 2015- Conference Guide for Bloggers

Did you know there will be more than 50,000 travel professionals attending WTM London 2015? With crowds that big, you need a strategy. And you can start planning now!

I know this because last year I went to WTM London for four days and was so grateful to have tips about the travel conference from my friend Jess who blogs at Love and London.

Just days before the conference, I contacted Jess who had been to WTM London 2013. She wrote a post on her experience in an effort to alleviate last minute blogger breakdowns like I was having. In the spirit of sharing, I took extensive notes with the intention of paying it forward to you too.

WTM London 2015 Blogger Conference Advice: BEFORE

You’re going to minimise the opportunities you could earn at WTM substantially if you don’t do some important things in advance.

1. Research and Contact
Spend time looking through the list of attendees. Don’t just send messages or emails to everyone. That will annoy them and will be difficult for you to monitor.

Investigate companies to see if their clients match your brand and blogging goals. If yes, draft a 2-3 sentence message to request a meeting with them during the conference. Explain briefly what your blog could do for them. Offer to send your media kit. I

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice

What? You don’t have a media kit? Well… You should rethink that strategy. This conference isn’t for the novice blogger. Billions of dollars in deals happen in these four days. You’d better be prepared to dazzle people.

I targeted London based venues and fun, sunny destinations for press trips outside of London.

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice (5)

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice (5)2. Disregard People’s Schedules
I spent way too much time trying to organise meetings with people around sessions I wanted to attend AND their ‘schedules’ as indicated on the WTM website. Maybe the website will be better this year?

If not, here’s a possible strategy…

Everyone I requested meetings with emailed me separately with a different time. It was a nightmare. I just kept my own schedule on a personal calendar and disregarded the app/website for WTM for business appointments.

3. Your Schedule
When you do hear from people, don’t schedule more than two appointments in an hour. The Excel Centre is HUGE. Don’t underestimate the size.

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice4. Plan Your Meetings:
Once you make a contact who is willing to meet with you, prepare a pitch specifically for that agency. This at least puts you in the realm of being taken seriously.

My experience last year was that bloggers were mostly bottom-feeders. Misunderstood species that were more like ‘pseudo journalists’ who kind of, but mostly don’t, get paid.

There are many reasons for this perception, many of which you can learn by attending sessions.

If you are lucky enough to catch the interest of a company, be ready to set off your blogger fireworks. Give them a specific pitch tailored for how you can produce results for them.

5. Media Kit Ready
Upload your impressive media kit on to an iPad so you can showcase it during meetings. Also, be able to email it to people while you’re there. Dropbox? (Jess had a fantastic example of this last year, so credit for this idea is all hers!)

6. Have Your Badge
You absolutely need to print your badge ahead of time. Also, cut or fold it so it’s ready to throw in a lanyard. That lanyard is your life. Your badge will say ‘Press’.

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice-press-centre

7. Bring Business Cards
I brought around 50 the first day. They were gone by the afternoon. It’s a good thing I had placed an order for new business cards the previous weekend via my favourite custom business card site Moo.

Business cards are really good for events like these. However, it might be worth getting some other products to give out too.

WTM London 2015 Blogger Conference Advice: DURING

1. London Transportation
You’re pretty much limited to one vein of the DLR to get there. Double your anticipated journey time. The first day the trains are PACKED! TIGHT.

Make sure your Oyster Card is loaded for the round trip or purchase it before you get there. I noticed the ticket purchase queues for people waiting to get home each day were massive. Here is a picture of the last day when things were much more quiet…

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice

I will absolutely say that the Transport for London personnel are in abundance as you near the Excel Centre. There was always a platform full of personnel dispersing directions for confused travellers. Many people travel internationally for this conference. They’re all a bunch of lost sheep on trains. TfL employees were fantastic all four days.

2. Dress Smart
Contrary to the image you have of knee socks with flip flops, this crowd of travellers is damn smart. Like I wrote above, big money is agreed upon here. Almost everyone is in suits. Girls, you can get away with a nice dress. Wear black.

The Press Centre for WTM London has a cloakroom. The wait is about 10-20 minutes during peak times. I made sure to get my coat prior to attending my last sessions so I could just leave as soon as the session ended.

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice

3. Bring Food
I brought some in my ginormous handbag and additional tote each day. Lines at food places in the Excel Centre were always long. Even for coffee. Bring snacks and a water bottle at the very least. I had the misfortune of paying £3.50 for two bottles of water one day. Ugh.

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice (5)

If you do go to one of the outside restaurants, you’ll wait forever. I predicted this the day I had a huge meeting with an international PR company with whom I was dying to collaborate. They ran late to the lunch meeting, and I had an appointment much later. I was able to meet the agency team and pitched the ideas I had for them. Score!

However, our food didn’t arrive until an hour later, and I had to skip the meal to make it for my next meeting.

4. Attend Press Conferences
When you have extra time, attend press conferences for topics that connect to your blog goals and brand. You learn a lot directly from the source. And sometimes they have treats for you!

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice

5. Use the App
If you still have extra time between meetings at WTM London, the sessions you don’t want to miss and random introductions you make, use the app.

It’s not great because I felt every time I opened it I had to wait a while for a ‘new update.’ However, I used it to keep a record of other sessions that were of interest. That saved time from running around and trying to find all the conference schedules boards that were sporadically placed.

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice

6. Electronics
My iPad got fairly fluent wifi at the Excel Centre. I wasn’t so lucky with my iPhone 5. I left my phone on ‘Airplane Setting’ a lot. It saved battery. However, there is a charging centre there. But who wants to waste time with that? Bring a Compact Portable Charger and cord for your devices. Yes, both.

WTM-london-2015-blogger-travel-conference-advice

WTM London 2015 Blogger Conference Advice: AFTER

Follow up with all those great contacts you made. Send them LinkedIn invitations immediately so they don’t forget you. Then draft an email covering your meeting and the next proposed step.

I actually had a system for this when I collected business cards because I always came away with a lot of them. So, I needed to establish a method that would make it easier for me to manage them. So, when it came to organizing my cards, any contacts and information that I absolutely wanted to see right away went in one part of my handbag. Those that weren’t top priority went in my separate tote bag. Or vice versa. I’m not giving up which one went where in case you see me at an event some time using this strategy.

WTM London 2015 Blogger Conference Advice- Final thoughts

I tried to cover almost everything. A girl has to keep some tricks up her sleeve though ;-). What strategies do you use at conferences? Did you find this guide useful? If so, please share it on Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook or other networks where you think bloggers attending WTM London will see it! And of course, if you’ll be there this year Tweet Me!

World Duty Free Heathrow- What You Don’t Know

Flying in the future? You would really do yourself a favour by planning some extra time shopping at duty free, especially World Duty Free Heathrow.

In fact, on my most recent trip to Florida from London, I built nearly two additional hours in to my airport schedule, and it wasn’t enough time to take advantage of all that’s available with regard to shopping and saving money.

In fact, I was shocked at what a little research uncovered that most people don’t know about World Duty Free Heathrow.

a-world-duty-free-heathrow-airport-travel-shopping

After a fairly standard check-in and security process, I headed straight to the huge Terminal 4 World Duty Free Heathrow store.

Normally, I pop in a duty free shop and avoid eye contact with anyone working because I don’t have time. I haphazardly spray on a perfume I think I would enjoy for 8 hours on a trans-Atlantic flight and rush to my gate.

These are the reasons why I’ll never do that again…

World Duty Free Heathrow Beauty Services:

When I contacted World Duty Free Heathrow for my travel readers, their fast response included a link to their Beauty Services menu.

world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping

Although I did feel very special, the link isn’t unique for a blogger. You should view it ASAP!

They indicated I could choose any of the beauty services. And, Sunny friends, so can you!

A Date with Dior:

First, I planned a Personalised Fragrance Consulation with Dior. I chose this brand because I’m fiercely loyal to scents and loved my Dior perfume choices in the past.

world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping

After completing a four question survey led by the consultant using an iPad, two of the three scents recommended for me were ones I have worn. My favourite being Poison.
I learned that now you can literally pick your poison because they have Hypnotic Poison eau Secrete, Hypnotic Eau de Parfum and Pure Poison Eau de Parfum.

Finding My Face:

Next, I hit Estée Lauder for the Expert Foundation Matching. Again, this is because in my entire life the best foundation I’ve ever used was Estée Lauder.

The consultant quickly picked out an exact match for my skin with the Double Wear Lights #2 SPF 10 (which is smart for a Florida girl heading to the sun). The coverage was amazing.

world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping

Creme de la Creme:

For stop #3 I hit Creme de la Mer. Since it’s a brand I know but haven’t had the luxury of affording, I wanted to sample their Hand and Arm Indulgence.

Like the other consultants I met, the fantastic lady who worked with me informed me of the brand’s origins and what makes them unique. I had a very relaxing treatment too.

world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping

Soaking up Shiseido:

Finally, I ventured to Shiseido for a 15 minute Pre-flight Skin Booster using each of these gorgeous products pictured below.

world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping-shiseido

My skin felt glorious and fully prepared to combat the dryness of a long airplane flight.

World Duty Free Heathrow Travel Exclusives:

Not only can you have short beauty treatments at World Duty Free Heathrow, but you also can purchase Travel Exclusives and limited release products.

world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping-gucci-bamboo
world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping-clarins
world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping-shiseido-exclusive
world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping

For example, did you know that Gucci Bamboo was first available at duty free and hit the high streets weeks later?

That’s also true of this new product by Clarins.

Shiseido has an entire display devoted to items that are packaged together in ways you cannot purchase elsewhere.

While companies like Estée Lauder generally stock their Best Sellers, you might not know that they also debut new products too.

Oh yeah, and Estée Lauder is particularly known for extra samples and gifts at their duty free counters 😉

World Duty Free Heathrow Size Counts:

You can assume you’ll save at least 20% on a duty free purchase because you are exempt from VAT tax in the UK.

Aside from the dramatic price difference, you’ll likely find products in much bigger sizes than what you find in shops.

For example, just as I was leaving I spotted these ginormous bottles of Molton Brown Black Peppercorn. It’s Mr. Sunny’s favourite and I just bought him a new bottle for £18 last week.

world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping-molton-brown-peppercornWorld Duty Free Heathrow Cocktails:

Since most people associate duty free with cheap cigarettes, discounted perfume and gallons of liquor for less, I had to share a discovery about booze with you too.

Did you know you can sample cocktails at World Duty Free Heathrow? I had the chance to try their current Hendrick’s Gin promotion for the month. It is refreshingly fantastic!

world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping

Just like the Beauty Service brands, they also offer liquor packaged in bigger sizes and frequently with gifts you can’t purchase outside the airport, like this book that accompanies Hendrick’s.

world-duty-free-heathrow-london-airport-shopping-hendricks-gin

World Duty Free Heathrow Final Thoughts:

For your next international flight, make sure you build in plenty of time to visit duty free. For all the reasons above, it’s absolutely worth it!

Fast, Not Furious:

One of the consultants I met indicated that they’re trained to converse with customers in a three minute time frame. This even further convinced me that working with a beauty advisor at Heathrow’s World Duty Free is even more economic!

While my research was conducted entirely at the Terminal 4 Heathrow Duty Free locations, I am told the other World Duty Free experience is equal to or better than what I saw. Although, I can’t really imagine better 😉

Finally, as a final money saving tip, you may wish to look in to the Heathrow Rewards. You can use it to accrue loyalty points and receive even more savings which you can use at World Duty Free Heathrow or other store.

*A special thank you to everyone I worked with at World Duty Free before my flight to the U.S. Your service, attention and knowledge were remarkable!

What are your experiences duty free shopping? Did you know all of these services and opportunities were available? If you’re traveling to London for the first time, be sure to read my Guide for Visitors and subscribe to the emails with all the Sunny London news too.

Sir Christopher Wren Hotel- Where to Stay Near Windsor Castle at Christmas

If you really want to treat yourself when visiting Windsor, you need to know a great location for where to stay near Windsor Castle. Sir Christopher Wren Hotel and Spa is beneath the castle and is inches from tons of restaurants, shops and of course- pubs!

Mr Sunny and I love Windsor because it is such a short trip from London and has such a lovely atmosphere. Recently, we made a trip to Windsor just to enjoy all the Christmas decorations. While I think London is breathtaking during the holidays, there are so many things to do in Windsor at Christmas too. That is why having a hotel in a great location matters a lot.

where-to-stay-near-windsor-castle-at-christmas-sir-christopher-wren

Sir Christopher Wren Hotel and Spa- Check-in

We arrived at the Windsor and Eton Central Railway Station at around 5.30pm. The hotel is about a 7 minute walk away, I think. You see I am not exactly sure because as soon as you leave the station you are dazzled with numerous shops like Molton Brown, Neal’s Yard Remedies and L’Occitane. If the allure of shopping does not misguide you, you still might face another obstacle with Windsor Castle.

Its awe will strike you just as you leave the station heading toward the High Street. I think I stood in front of it for 10 minutes filming the light projection display when we arrived. But, you will have to watch my “Things to Do in Windsor at Christmas’ video to see what I mean.

You literally just wrap around the High Street and Windsor Castle to find the Sir Christopher Wren Hotel and Spa.

Staff greeted us quickly and swiftly took us to our room, which was in a building across the road from the main building. They were clear that they wanted our stay to be relaxing and were eager to help with anything.

where-to-stay-near-windsor-castle-at-christmas-sir-christopher-wren

Our room was exactly what we needed for the quick stay- clean, quiet and comfortable. We quickly freshened up and headed to the high street to explore Christmas in Windsor at night.

Sir Christopher Wren Hotel and Spa- Next Time

Unfortunately, with a tight timeline for a press trip, we weren’t able to enjoy more of what the hotel had to offer. Sadly, we just got to sleep and have breakfast. In fact, the images of the spa look gorgeous on the website. Mr Sunny was quite disappointed when he learned the hotel has a whirlpool, because we did not pack his bathing costume for our trip. However, with so many Christmas activities happening in the town, I can’t imagine this would have been the highlight!

The afternoon tea at Sir Christopher Wren is offered in either the Drawing Room or Brasserie. Both seem ideal for a relaxing and indulging in this British tradition.

They had a great offer for January stays while we were there, so Mr Sunny and I are going to continue to follow the Sir Christopher Wren Hotel and Spa on Instagram so we don’t miss the chance to skip off to Windsor the next weekend we are free. It is such an easy escape from London in terms of day trips that offer English culture and history.

Sir Christopher Wren Hotel and Spa- Christmas Season

While the hotel is absolutely dreamy for a wedding and is where celebrities stay when in Windsor for a royal wedding, it is also a popular hotel for local residents to book their Christmas parties.

In terms of festivities, there is not a corner of the Sir Christopher Wren Hotel and Spa that isn’t sparkling with Christmas joy. I lost count of all the Christmas trees I saw. Holiday decorations are tastefully everywhere.

where-to-stay-near-windsor-castle-at-christmas-sir-christopher-wren

where-to-stay-near-windsor-castle-at-christmas-sir-christopher-wren

This further added to the warmth and lovely atmosphere of the Sir Christopher Wren Hotel and Spa. If you seek a winter getaway that is easy from London or have some extra time to enjoy the English country atmosphere, book a stay here early. It is quite a popular place to go.

Our stay was part of a press trip to the area, but if you want to see all the other great reviews and stars from people who agree, you can visit TripAdvisor to how highly Sir Christopher Wren Hotel and Spa is ranked.

Have you been to Windsor? Aside from Windsor Castle, what other activities do you suggest? Do you have any questions for me about a trip? Stay tuned for the Sunny News YouTube video about ‘Things to Do in Windsor at Christmas’ video. You can subscribe to the Sunny News emails to make sure you don’t miss any promotions or updates too.

The Sunny News YouTube channel shares even more advice for things to do and what you’ll need to know about London and day trips from London. This includes tips for how to tip when in London, food to eat in London, and advice for exchanging money. The blog also has a Guide for Americans Visiting London which is a collection of the top experiences I recommend. You’ll definitely want to bookmark it and visit the Pinterest boards created to help trip planning too.
