We would like to make an early announcement of an absolutely unique and breakthrough service for planning independent travel, which is being developed by our team. A beta version will be released next year. The service will be an aggregator of everything that is possible and necessary for planning a trip to any country. In this case, everything will be on one page and one click from the goal. A distinctive feature of this service from other similar ones, although there are no close analogues, will be that we will not slip you the most profitable affiliate programs uncontested as everyone else does. You will always have a choice from almost all possible options.
Let's give an example of how everyone is doing and how we will not do it: all travel sites usually take you along this kind of uncontested path: Air tickets - aviasales.ru, accommodation - booking.com, transfer - kiwitaxi.ru. With us you will have access to all options without priority to anyone else.
You can support the project and get access much earlier than the start of open testing by contacting the mail [email protected] with the phrase "I want to support".

10 facts about South Korea:
The country has a very strong US influence, so every year more and more borrowed words from English are used in the Korean language, pronounced in the Korean manner. For example, "ice cream" is pronounced as "aisy khyrimy", "ticket" is "tiket", etc. This is despite the presence of native Korean equivalents.
In Korea, they still eat dog meat, but animal rights activists are actively fighting this, and the dish has moved from everyday to delicacies. It is believed that dog meat gives masculine strength and protects against disease.
In some cities in Korea, you can order whale meat and even assorted different parts of the body at a restaurant. True, such a dish will cost a lot.
As in many Asian countries, in Korea (especially in the province, where there are almost no tourists), a special attitude towards women with blond hair. People turn around, take pictures and almost worship blondes.
There is a cult of education in Korea. Even on vacation, students sit in libraries every day from morning to evening to prepare for exams and employment. This leads to an overabundance of qualified specialists and a shortage of ordinary workers. Even a foreigner to get a job in large cities is a difficult task.
Korea leads in the number of suicides among young people. Studying is so important to Koreans that often students will kill themselves if they fail their exams.
Korea has long been an agricultural country, required a lot of labor, and as a result, people preferred to give birth to boys rather than girls. Girls were often disposed of. When ultrasound machines appeared, a ban was introduced in the country on determining the sex of a child before birth, in order to avoid mass abortions, if the fetus is female. Whether this ban is still in effect, I do not know.
In Korea, a popular dessert is sweet bean ice cream. How can you eat sweet beans, in my head still does not fit, and could not try it. Sweet potatoes are also fairly common.
One of the most popular Korean dishes is Kimchi, a spicy sauerkraut with various spices. It is as popular as bread on the Russian table. Kimchi has a specific strong smell, so almost every Korean family has a separate refrigerator for storing Kimchi.
Koreans are absolutely not shy about talking about "toilet" topics, even at the table. Complaining about diarrhea or constipation during a family meal is absolutely normal practice, but instead of "how are you?" you can hear: "how did you eat today? is everything okay with the chair?" Korea also has a park-museum dedicated to toilets and excrement.

1. Denmark
Suddenly, Denmark comes first. Why not? European country with a very high standard of living and the same level of comfort for tourists. In addition, Denmark, or more precisely, Copenhagen, is just a fabulous paradise for children. Small gingerbread houses, narrow streets and cobbled squares, monuments to mermaids and elves, waffles, vanilla straws and pies sold at every corner, many water channels along which yachts and ships ply, and houseboats. Just imagine this environment through the eyes of a child. And parents are glad that they can buy air tickets to Copenhagen at a bargain price, and most of the hotels in the center offer all the amenities for travelers with children.In the homeland of Hans Christian Andersen, a fabulous atmosphere still reigns. There is even a huge Children's Museum in the National Gallery, where you can wander for hours with children of different ages. Interesting fact: in Copenhagen, almost every courtyard and park has playgrounds with the highest level of safety, different from each other and having an original design. With a child, it is worth visiting the Andersen Museum, walking along the tourist route of Malysh and Carlson on the roofs, visiting the old Tivoli amusement park.
2. France
Naturally, we are talking about Paris in the first place, but the peculiarities of France are such that any city and even the hinterland here seems to be created for traveling with children. There are coastlines with a favorable climate and clean beaches, and chalets with everything you need. And you will be able to see Paris not only through the romantic haze and will be surprised to discover how convenient this city is. Judge for yourself: all hotels are not only suitable, but also have all the amenities for parents and children; the center is clean and well maintained; many hiking trails and a children's menu at any. Buying tickets to Paris is a good way to instill taste in your child from a young age.In terms of leisure, here you have to paint every day, there are so many interesting things in the city of romance. For example, a museum of magic, where illusions and tricks await you, a zoo with rare animals and a petting zoo, an unusual Museum in the grass, “Aquaboulvar”, which is literally an extended attraction made of water. The City of Science has entire sections designed to amaze and develop curious kids. And, of course, of course, Disneyland is one of the best and most beautiful in the world, the dream of any child.
3. United Kingdom
Again, as in the case of France, many UK cities are ideal for families, not to mention if the budget allows, you can rent a castle altogether so that your little prince or princess is happy. But, of course, it is better to strive for the capital, London. Homeland of Peter Pan, Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes. Just imagine how delighted the children will be when they travel on a doubledecker along the picturesque streets. It is worth buying tickets to London if only because there are some of the best museums for children and adults (but with children's excursions) in the world.For example, visit the British Museum with your child to see mummies, or the Natural History Museum, which houses life-size dinosaur skeletons. The Harry Potter Museum is not discussed at all, the children there are simply delighted and will remember such an institution for the rest of their lives. If your child loves riddles and detectives - Baker Street with the Sherlock Holmes Museum will help you. And then there are the wax figures of Madame Tussauds, the Museum of Childhood, the Museum of Science, where you can actually stage simple experiments and play with optical illusions. London is also home to the tallest Ferris wheel in Europe.
And it is very convenient to fly to Turkey with children. There are several reasons for this. First, as already mentioned, the sea is clean and warm, many beaches are private, with security and lifeguards. Secondly, the lion's share of Turkish hotels are not just positioned as family hotels, where you will be provided with a baby cot, an armchair, and a children's menu. Here you will find animators, children's rooms with nannies, swimming pools for children, attractions for children on land and water. Thirdly, even in the season, Turkey is an affordable country in terms of cost. Fourth, the mild climate promotes health improvement.
5. Netherlands
Another European country, which is very convenient to be with children. All the conditions for this are in Amsterdam. Its size is small, the city is cozy, chamber, with many water channels and small bridges, which are so pleasant to walk along. The cult of ecological travel thrives here, which suits you. You can move around the city on bicycles (and here all the conditions in the form of paths and parking lots are created for such a vehicle), you can rent a boat or even a houseboat. When you decide to buy tickets to Amsterdam, you find yourself in a cute city where technology goes hand in hand with medieval charm.There are a lot of parks in the city - it is green, clean, surrounded by tulips and trees. Each park almost always has entire play areas for children. Visit the Children's Science Museum, the huge Artis Zoo, or the exhibits of the Tropical Museum, where weird things from all over the world are collected. Amsterdam is also famous for its small pastry shops, from which children are simply delighted. We especially recommend "Aunt's Cake". For an older child, there are special quests in art museums, for example, Van Gogh. In an entertaining form, he will be introduced to the masterpieces of world painting.
6.Spain
This is not to say that Spain is an affordable place for tourists, including for the price of the flight, but believe me, it's worth it. The country's mild, healing climate is capable of curing many even chronic diseases, so Spain is often chosen by parents for children with problems with the musculoskeletal system or respiratory tract. But even if everyone in the family is healthy, you can buy tickets to Barcelona or any other city and not regret it a bit.The combination of seaside, tropical climate and an ancient city where attractions are abundant is ideal. Adults strive to see Gaudí's ingenious buildings in Barcelona, \u200b\u200bbut they will also be of interest to children who have hardly ever seen such fantastic towers and cathedrals. There are also plenty of purely children's entertainment here. Be sure to visit the Tibidabo amusement park, the mammoth museum, the Magic Fountain, which amazes the imagination in the evening.
8.Italy
A natural item on this list. If you are wondering where to go with children, just buy tickets to Rome or some iconic city in Italy, and you will definitely not go wrong. Antiquities are here at every turn, let your child walk with gusto through the catacombs under the cities or the steps of the Colosseum. Excursions for children in any language in an accessible form will acquaint children from 6 years old with the history of the city and civilization in general. Some go further and attend a massive 3D event, where the story literally comes to life in an interactive presentation.The Da Vinci Machines and Mechanisms Exhibition will be interesting not only for your little ones, but also for you. Seasoned tourists say that even a full day is not enough to deal with all the fads. There is also a children's science museum in Rome. Puppet theater performances take place on the Janiculum hill, offering stunning views of the city. By the way, street performers with puppets, as in the Middle Ages, still entertain the children in the squares. And, of course, be sure to try the world famous Italian ice cream in local restaurants - it's just the dream of any child.
