For my tours I have to cooperate with a local guide.... and as I'm doing this job for 26 years, the Turkish company sends each time a new one, somebody who never did this tour before.... an exceptional occasion for them and each time a questionmark for me.... how will it be, willingly to cooperate, interested to learn new things.... Well this time I got Erol and he is asking me almost more questions than the clients...... And on top of it, he is a nice, friendly guy, with a sence of humour!
The medieval town of Honfleur, located near the mouth of the Seine River, is a charming seaside city that was once a pivotal maritime port.

A local guide (self-appointed I think), encourages us to visit a weaving workshop. We are not being goaded to buy any produce though, which makes a pleasant change.

This was without a doubt the best day of our trip. We went out with Einar and his son from Öræfaferðir / Local Guide Travel Service. They were both amazing, and we would highly recommend their services! Please feel free to check out the link below for more information.
Our second stop was to head into an amazing ice cave adjacent to the Svínafellsjökull Outlet on Vatnajökull Glacier. Being in these caves was unlike anything we've ever experienced. They were well insulated so it wasn't extremely cold, but the textures and formations were completely otherworldly. The ice will often take on a rich, deep blue color in these caves. However, we were told that because it was a bright and sunny day, that blue became a much lighter color as you see here.
Interestingly, due to the constant changing of the glaciers and temperature changes, these ice caves are rarely ever around for more than a couple of weeks at a time. You can go back every year and have a completely different experience every time. We were told that the ice caves we enjoyed, for example, were gone within a week of our visit.

Ingólfshöfði is a nature reserve that's home to thousands of nesting sea-birds, like puffins and great skuas. This birdwatching tour was taken with the group Local Guide, which hauls people across a massive black sand beach in a hay cart to reach the cliffs where the birds live.
MEET THE STANS: KYRGYZSTAN - Simon (right), Producer Will Daws (left) and their local guide prepare to enter an abandoned, leaking and contaminated Soviet radioactive waste dump in Kyrgyzstan. Although the Soviets mined uranium in Kyrgyzstan for their nuclear weapons programme there has been little cleaning up since the Soviet Union collapsed. The Soviets buried radioactive waste and uranium in pits in this earthquake prone zone. Our guide said there were several areas on the pits where radiation levels spiked-up to more than 1,000 times normal levels. We tried to avoid them but nowhere was entirely safe.
Meet the Stans is a four-part BBC TV series, shown on BBC2, BBC World and by broadcasters internationally, in which Simon Reeve travelled from the far north-west of Kazakhstan, by the Russian border, east to the Chinese border, south through Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan to the edge of Afghanistan, and west to Uzbekistan and the legendary Silk Road cities of Samarkand and Bukhara.
My local guide, Aron, was leading me to the edge of glacier in Skaftafell National Park where the ice cave lies below.
This winter (February 2013) was atypically warm so entering the ice cave was more dangerous due to the ice melt and would cause the cave collapse.

I had taken my glasses off since it was misty outside and I didn't like the lenses getting wet. They slipped out of my rain jacket pocket and through the slats of this hay cart. The guides were phenomenal with helping me find the glasses during our return trip--and ensuring that the hay cart didn't crush them! This seems borderline impossible in such a huge expanse of black sand, but somehow they accomplished it!

These photos are from the Vancouver Sun Newspaper Architecture Tour series – Palm Springs Mid-Century Modern Adventure hosted by columnist Shelley Fralic and local guide and expert Kip Serafin. We toured houses by Richard Neutra, Donald Wexler, John Lautner, A Quincy Jones, William Krisel, Albert Frey and Hugh Kaptur, mostly built in the 1950s and 1960s. But we also took in many of the other sites and sounds of Palm Springs during modernism week, and had a bit of time for sunrise and sunset photography elsewhere in the valley. We had a wonderful time and would recommend others to upcoming Vancouver Sun tours, or other architecture tours in Palm Springs.

One of the few leopards to have been named by local guides - this is Lucy. She is between 7 and 9 years old (no one knows for sure) and has previously raised a number of litters. This year she has two cubs each about 4 months old (as of November 2024). Both were active and alert climbing and play fighting with each other whilst Mum kept an alert vigil over her family. We were fortunate to have this family all to ourselves for about 30 minutes. A real privilege.
This was without a doubt the best day of our trip. We went out with Einar and his son from Öræfaferðir / Local Guide Travel Service. They were both amazing, and we would highly recommend their services! Please feel free to check out the link below for more information.

However, we were told that because it was a bright and sunny day, that blue became more of the aqua/teal type color you see here.
This shot was looking down through the entrance that we took to enter the cave. We walked down the steps toward the bottom of the image and around to the right where you can see the other entrance/exit from my previous shots.

The Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption of the Virgin, also known as Cusco Cathedral, is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cusco. The cathedral is located on the Plaza de Armas. Building was completed in 1654. Adjacent and joined to the cathedral is the smaller Iglesia del Triunfo the first Christian church to be built in Cusco.
The Incas built the temple known as Kiswarkancha on the main square in Cusco. It was the Inca palace of Viracocha uler of the Kingdom of Cusco around a century before the Spanish colonists arrived. Near to the Kiswarkancha was the Suntur Wasi, an armoury and heraldry centre for the Inca royalty. When the Spanish conquistadores arrived in Cuzco, they decided to take down the temple and build their Christian cathedral in that prominent site. The cathedral's construction began in 1559 on the foundations of Kiswarkancha. It is shaped like a Latin cross. The location of Viracocha's palace was chosen for the purpose of removing the Inca religion from Cusco, and replacing it with Spanish Catholic Christianity. Because 1559 was only 26 years after the conquistadores entered Cusco in 1533, the vast majority of the population was still of Quechua Inca descent. The Spaniards used the Incas as a labour workforce to build the cathedral. The original designs for the 1-acre (4,000 m2) large construction were drawn by the Spanish architect and conquistador, Juan Miguel de Veramendi. His design of a Latin cross shape incorporated a three-aisled nave, where the roof was supported by only 14 pillars. Over the 95 years of its construction, the building work was supervised by Spanish priests and architects. Most of the stones from the building were taken from Saqsaywaman, an Inca holy and defensive structure located on the hills above Cusco. Due to its large size, much of Saqsaywaman remains intact. Just as the temple of Viracocha was removed and the holy stones of Saqsaywaman were employed to build the cathedral, the intentional desecration of Inca religious architecture, once the Spaniards learned that the very sand spread on Cusco's main plaza was considered sacred, they removed it and employed it in the cathedral's mortar. The Incas incorporated some of their religious symbolism into the cathedral, for example, the carved head of a jaguar (an important god or religious motif found widely through much of ancient Peru) is part of the cathedral doors.
The silver altar was originally cedar wood covered in gold flakes, but in 1803 (according to the inscription on the front of the silver panel), Heras Bishop donated the silver to be beaten and applied to the altar. The right tower of the cathedral supports the famous Maria Angola, a bell that is 2.15 metres high, and weighs approximately 5980 kg. It was cast in 1659 and named, according to local tradition, after an Angolan slave who threw gold into the crucible where the bell was being made. As the bell is cracked, it is rung only on special occasions. It has been claimed that the bell is audible from more than 20 miles away. The sacristy, a highly decorated part of the cathedral, displays a large collection of allegoric paintings by Marcos Zapata from the 18th century. Also, many portraits of Cusco's bishops hang in the cathedral, beginning with Vicente de Valverde (see 'artwork'), the first resident bishop of Cusco. Within the sacristy, a large, dark painting of the crucifixion is commonly attributed to the Dutch artist, Anthony van Dyck. Some local guides say it is the work of the Spanish artist Alonso Cano, from the 17th century. Much of the artwork in the cathedral originated from the Escuela Cuzquena (Cuzco school of art). This was a school that was built by the Spanish to educate the Incas and their descendants with the methods and disciplines of European renaissance style artwork.[1] This school was famous throughout the colonial Americas, but the Quechua painters were limited to painting scenes of European and Catholic importance. The restrictions imposed on the Inca artists meant that they were not permitted to sign their own artwork, so much of it is unidentifiable.
The Church of Triumph, to use its English translation, was built in 1536, just three years after the conquistadores settled in Cusco. It was built over Suntur Wasi, which was an Inca ceremonial building adjoining the palace of Viracocha, in a similar way to the way that the Cathedral is now adjoined to the earlier Iglesia del Triunfo. The name of the Church of Triumph derives from the history of the Spanish settlers in Cusco. At one point, presumably between 1533, and 1536, the Spanish were cornered by a besieging army of Incas, led by Manko Inka. The final stand for the Spanish was in the Suntur Wasi, before its demolition, and just as it seemed that they were on the verge of defeat, the Spanish miraculously managed to drive back the Incas. The Catholic conquistadores attribute this victory to Saint James the Greater (the patron saint of Spain), who was reported at the time to descend from heaven to drive back the Incas. This is why the church is called the Church of Triumph, and also why there is a statue of St. James atop a horse within the Church, depicting him slaying an Inca.
June 2022, Amazon Rainforest, Brazil. The Caboclos Lodge is located 2 hours from Manaus in the Lago Acajatuba and Paricatuba regions of the Amazon. The lodge lies deep in the Amazon rainforest and offers a look into local Caboclos life and activities and culture. Here women swim in the river with the Amazon river dolphin also known as botos. A local guide often holds a small fish as the dolphins swim up to be fed.

As we walked down the street led by our local guide, there was a rumbling from the bowels of the earth. An earthquake? No explained our guide. Advanced trash removal system at work, and no kidding he is an engineer in his real life, and designed the system. Its like a giant vacuum cleaner. Garbage and recycle bins throughout the city are connected to a network of air tight pipes. When the system is turned on, manually or pre-programmed, the suction empties the contents of the bins,with three separate streams of garbage and recyclables. Here the designer of the system poses in front of bins, that moments before were vibrating and making weird noises. see link www.ita-aites.org/en/use-of-underground-spaces/energy-and...
