Day in Your City

 
A Day In Your City

 

The world has a plethora of fabulous places to see.  Many of us choose to buy a guide book before taking the trip in order to make the most of our time in the new place.  Sometimes we have days to explore the city but other times just a day - either way, it is important to make the most of our time.  Guide books can be very helpful but information from the locals is usually the best.  They know the little out of the way places, they can tell you what should not be missed and what is a waste of time or money.  Their insights are invaluable. Select a city, click on the corresponding picture to learn more.

FAWCO has clubs in more than 40 countries and 70 cities around the world: could there be a better source of information? We are asking each club to provide highlights about their city so that our members can use the information to either make a decision about where to go next or to prepare for their upcoming trip.
