❓❗️Many people wonder if it's worth it? Personally, I think it's very worthwhile. The Great Barrier Reef is a famous World Heritage site, and it's disappearing little by little. You can't see the whole picture of the Great Barrier Reef from the shore or on a boat, so seeing it from a helicopter, from a God's-eye view, is the right way to experience it. 📍Departure Point Selection: Great Barrier Reef helicopter tours are mainly concentrated in the following three areas of Queensland: 1⃣ Cairns 🔹Classic Route: Green Island → Norman Reef → Agincourt Reef (outer reef core area). 🔹Advantages: Mature routes, often combined with "Sunlover" or "Great Adventures" cruises, allowing for a "helicopter there + cruise back" combination. 2⃣ Whitsundays 🔹Must-see highlights**: Heart Reef, Whitehaven Beach, panoramic view of the 74 islands of the Whitsundays. 🔹Recommended departure point: Hamilton Island or Airlie Beach. 3⃣ Port Douglas 🔹Features: Direct flights to the edge of the outer reef, suitable for those seeking an in-depth experience with fewer people and beautiful scenery. ☀️Recommended Time and Weather 🔹Recommended season: May-October (dry season), with more sunny days, high visibility, and a more stable flight experience. During the rainy season, choose a sunny day between 1:00 pm and 2:00 pm, preferably after a few rain-free days❗️ 🔹Rainy season tips (November-April): Prices may be lower, but you need to check typhoon and tropical cyclone warnings. It is recommended to choose packages with free rescheduling. 🌈Booking Guide 🔹Book in advance: At least 1 month in advance during peak season (June-August), especially for the Heart Reef route, which is often fully booked. 🔹Compare prices on various platforms. 🔹Package reference: 1⃣ Pure flight: 30 minutes approx. AUD 400-600/person, 60 minutes AUD 800-1200/person. 2⃣ Combination package: Helicopter + cruise + snorkeling (e.g., Cairns "Reef Magic" package approx. AUD 500/person). 3⃣ Child policy: Usually children over 2 years old can fly. 👉It is recommended to choose a route based on your budget and interests, prioritize booking morning flights (soft light, avoiding afternoon clouds), and then combine it with snorkeling and strolling on white sandy beaches to experience the different beauty of the Great Barrier Reef! 🚁Flight Experience Optimization Tips: 🔹Seat selection tips: The co-pilot seat has a better view, but you need to apply in advance (usually an additional AUD 50-100); the left-side seats are better for overlooking Heart Reef (Whitsundays route). 📸Photography suggestions: Use a mobile phone or wide-angle lens, turn off the flash, and turn on airplane mode; wear dark clothing to reduce glass reflection, and wear polarized sunglasses to enhance the shooting effect. ⚠️Special reminder: Helicopters can easily cause airsickness. Avoid overeating before takeoff and take anti-airsickness medicine in advance. ✅Important Notes 🔹Baggage restrictions: Only small carry-on bags are allowed (generally limited to 5 kg). Large luggage needs to be checked in. 🔹Weight declaration: Helicopters need to balance the load, so you need to provide accurate weight information when booking. 🔹Clothing suggestions: Light clothing + windbreaker (it's colder at high altitudes), avoid wearing slippers. 🔹Environmental tips: Do not throw objects into the sea. Some companies will charge an environmental protection fee (approx. AUD 10).

#timetotravel Grasse is also known as the “Perfume Capital”, it is a town known for its established parfum industry. There are 3 large perfumeries based in Grasse 1) Fragonard 2) Molinard and 3) Galimard. We have chosen to join the parfum workshop organised by Galimard and it costs €58. Galimard provides 3 workshops daily at 10am, 2pm and 4pm; and in 4 different languages, English, French, German and Italian. The workshop itself is so fun!!! We told that each perfume are formed by 3 different layers: base note, heart note and top note. And we have to build our base, then heart and finish with the top note. There are more than a hundred different scents for all the notes combined and it was difficult for me to pick and choose! We were told not to smell directly from the bottle because of the strong alcohol content, and instead we should smell the scent by waving it around our nose in order not to numb our sinuses. And luckily, I walked out of the workshop without a numb sinus 😂 #perfume #perfumemaking #france #境外遊

Welcome to the famous Verdon Gorge! In the heart of Provence, there is a route that brings you close to nature. It allows you to shuttle through the gorge, feel the beauty of Lake Sainte-Croix, and experience the ancient town hidden in the mountains. 1. Panoramic route of the northern line. On the north side, D952 connects Castellane to Lac de Sainte Croix. At the end of this road is the Sainte Croix Lake, which is the main route to experience the canyon. The canyon road is narrow, allowing you to experience the vastness of the canyon and the vertical steepness of the cliffs. Climbing all the way up to an altitude of 700 meters, you may also have the opportunity to see many bald eagles. 2. Panoramic route of the southern line. On the south side, I also recommend taking the D71 that connects Trigance and Aigines. It runs south along the Gorges du Verdon, and is much quieter with fewer cars than the D952. The panoramic views here are also very beautiful, whether it's at the Balcons de la Mescla on the Martell path or at the pass of Illoire. It's worth stopping and staying for a while. 3. The town of Moustiers-Sainte-Marie. I am impressed by the beauty and charm of this village, which is located in the center of Verdon Park and ranks among "the most beautiful villages in France". When you first see Moustiers, the first thing that catches your eye is the cliff. The town is built on the mountain, and this small village exudes the atmosphere of Provence: the fragrance of lavender permeates the streets, and the maze-like alleys give you the opportunity to discover beautiful fountains, pottery shops, and more. The Notre Dame de Beauvoir chapel is located between the cliffs, and the climb to the church overlooks the entire town. This is the first time I have felt like I have found a paradise on earth. An impulse to stay. Navigation address: Place de l'Eglise 04360 Moustiers-Sainte-Marie Four, swimming in Lake Saint Croix. The Sainte-Croix Lake, built in the 19th century, is an artificial lake known for its emerald green water. I was really fascinated by its color. I sincerely recommend driving around the lake. Along the way, you can see beautiful villages by the lake... such as Bauduen and Aiguines. On the map, look for the small path down to the lake, have a picnic by the lake, go for a swim, and it's so comfortable. Another important activity on the lake is canoeing, and the boat rental point is at the Galetas Bridge. No input provided. Five, travel. The canyon has no buses, it is recommended to rent a car to go. You can plan to visit Sainte-Croix Lake and Moustiers-Sainte-Marie for one day, and drive along the lake, have a picnic and go boating on the second day. This trip can be combined with Valensole and Grasse to make a bigger circular tour. Sixth, accommodation. 1. Auberge des Salles is located across from Lake Sainte-Croix. This hotel is very comfortable and offers magnificent lake views! Address: 18 rue Sainte Catherine, 83630 Les Salles sur Verdon 2. Hotel and Spa des Gorges du Verdon located on the banks of the Verdon Gorge in La-Palud-sur-Verdon. It features a scenic swimming pool, a spa center, and modern decor. Address: route de la Maline, 04120 La Palud-sur-Verdon Verdon River, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence Valensole, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence Verdon Gorge and Lake Sainte-Croix Auberge du Seigneur des Serres Restaurant des Gorges du Verdon (Hôtel&Spa) Hotel & Spa des Gorges du Verdon

The medieval town with retro skirts is a great place to take a trip to South France. Located in the hinterland of South France, Grasse has been the essence processing center of South France since ancient times. More than 30 perfume processing factories allow you to experience perfume production freely and learn the history of perfume development.

From perfumery raw material production workshops in the suburbs to the Huagongna Perfume Factory and the Perfume Museum in the heart of the city, Grasse can find perfume-related attractions everywhere. Come here, you can also create your own perfume here. It is a French privilege to have Grasse, the world's perfume capital. Known as the paradise of smell, Grasse has numerous perfume museums, laboratories and production plants. Which girl does not want to live in such a small town?
