Liz Fleming Travels

This week on LFT, we're taking a deep dive into solo travel, starting with an interview with Martha Chapman about her recent solo trip to Italy.  Then we'll look at some great destinations for solo travelers and give some important thought to how to travel safely on your own.

This is an exciting week for LFT because we're riding the Rocky Mountaineer on their first ever U.S. route, the Rockies to the Red Rocks.On the show, listeners will hear from the guides who showed us the fantastic scenery of the famous Arches National Park, the hummer driver who thrilled (and terrified) us on a the most rugged trail ride I've ever done, the hosts on the Rocky Mountaineer's iconic train from Moab to Denver and much more. This will be a fun week!

This week, listeners are joining me on the christening cruise of the Oceania Vista, through the Mediterranean.  From hearing from godmother Giada di Laurentis, to taking shore excursions through Malta, Italy, France and Rome, this was a cruise to remember.

This week we're off to Maryland, to walk in the footsteps of Harriet Tubman, the Moses of the Underground Railroad, and to sail on Chesapeake Bay.  While we're at it, we may just dive into a crab boil lunch....just sayin....

This week, we're taking a look at the travel advantages and challenges of electric vehicles with Kevin Puckett of CAA Niagara. Then we're having a bit of a laugh at the clever-and-not-so-clever ruses used bypeople trying to boost their carryon baggage allowances and learning a few things we didn't know about airports

This week on Liz Fleming Travels, we're off to Tofino on Vancouver Island, taking surfing lessons from the Surf Sisters, trying a sauna on the beach, talking with an Aboriginal Elder and celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Pacific Sands Beach Club and Resort. We're going to have a good time!

This week, we're off to northern Virginia for a driving trip that includes Alexandria and Richmond and features visits to the apothecary shop where Martha Washington ordered her castor oil, to a Freedom Museum dedicated to telling the story of the thousands of enslaved people who built the south. We'll visit great restaurants, stay in fab hotels and explore some fascinating museums along the way.
