You may venture out on that journey, but not even reach the destination sometimes.

It might happen that mid-way you witness a gorgeous spot, and decide that this is where you would love to vacay. You don't have any hotel bookings, you don't have any recommendations, and the best part, you have no idea what you re going to experience, who you are going to meet or what you are going to do.

Disneyland Paris is an entertainment resort in Chessy, France, 32 km east of Paris. It encompasses two theme parks, resort hotels, Disney Nature Resorts, a shopping, dining and entertainment complex, and a golf course. Disneyland Park is the original theme park of the complex, opening in 1992.

Michael Eisner signed the first letter of agreement with the French government for the 20-square-kilometre (4,940-acre) site on 18 December 1985, and the first financial contracts were drawn up during the following spring. The final contract was signed by the leaders of the Walt Disney Company and the French government and territorial collectivities on 24 March 1987. Construction began in August 1988, and in December 1990, an information centre named "Espace Euro Disney" was opened to show the public what was being constructed. Plans for a theme park next to Euro Disneyland based on the entertainment industry, Disney-MGM Studios Europe, quickly went into development, scheduled to open in 1996 with a construction budget of US$2.3 billion. The construction manager was Bovis.

The Boabeng-Fiema Monkey Wildlife Sanctuary is found at Boaben and Fiema, twin communities 22 kilometers away from the Nkoranza North District of the Bono East region, Ghana. The 4.4 kilometer square (km²) forest, believed to have been created in the 1970s, houses many trees, birds, reptiles, deer and monkeys, two of which are the Geoffrey's Pied Colobus and Campbell Mona monkey. It is a home for about 700 monkeys. The village is a community where monkeys and human beings live together. The inhabitants in the village always leave food outside their homes for the animals. The monkeys see human beings as their own.

Villagers who live in the Boabeng-Fiema Monkey Sanctuary have traditionally had a taboo against killing the black-and-white colobus Colobus polykomos and mona monkey Cercopithecus campbelli, which inhabit the forest around their villages. The sanctuary is an important example of how traditional values in Ghana have resulted in wildlife conservation. The author, partly funded from the Oryx 100% Fund, carried out an assessment of the current status of the forest and monkey populations. He found that the monkeys are not immediately threatened but that some of the forest that the monkeys rely on has become degraded or destroyed. Further erosion of the forest should be minimized by careful planning of future village expansion, constructing fire-breaks and controlling farming activities along the forest perimeter.

The Naro Moru Route approaches from the West and KWS have a National Park Gate there and also their main headquarters for the mountain. There is accommodation available here also. This route used to be by far the most popular route as it is relatively short and has huts at Met Station (3050m) and MacKinders (4200m). However, it has been overtaken by the Sirimon route as the most popular. The huts are good at both locations and they also have camping space. The first day up to Met Station is on a vehicle track through the forest and bamboo. The second day goes through more bamboo and forest before emerging onto the alpine heath and following the Teleki Valley to MacKinders. You would usually then use the South approach to Point Lenana, passing another hut (Austrian Hut) at 4790m.

The forest is still dense on this route, as is the bamboo zone. You are quite likely to see bushbuck, Colobus monkey and Sykes Monkey and also evidence of Buffalo and Elephant. The hygenia forest is also in good condition with a lot of flowers and other plants. The giant heathers above the forest were heavily damaged by a fire in 2013 but the alpine moorland has a lot of Giant Lobelia as well as MacKinders Gladiolus higher up. The Teleki Valley has a lot of the classic Tree and Cabbage Groundsels as well as Lobelia Telekii and Deckenii. Some of the cabbage groundsels in particular absolutely massive. On the approach to or at MacKinders you are almost guaranteed to see Rock Hyrax.

For many years, Zimbabwe was the country that most tourists chose to base themselves in to visit Victoria Falls, but as a result of the country’s political strife and economic instability in the 2000s, most travellers starting choosing Livingstone on the Zambian side instead. Zimbabwe has become a lot more stable in recent years, and tourism is again on the rise on the country, with more and more people choosing to stay on the Zimbabwean side of Victoria Falls.

There’s good reason to visit the Zimbabwean side: the country is home to two-thirds of Victoria Falls, as well as four out of the five waterfalls (Horseshoe Falls, Rainbow Falls, the Main Falls and the Devil’s Cataract) and almost all of the viewing points (16 out of 19), and it’s only on the side of the border the water flows year-round. Exploring the falls from Zimbabwe certainly won’t disappoint, no matter what time of year you go – the panoramas from the top of the gorge are simply astounding.

The town of Victoria Falls, which is situated a conveniently short walk from the falls themselves, has excellent tourist infrastructure, offering a wide range of lodging options, restaurants, bars, curio shops and markets and a smorgasbord of activities and adventures. Zambezi National Park is only a 10-minute drive from town and makes for a great safari experience (especially if you don’t have time to visit other Zimbabwean parks on your trip), with picturesque landscapes and herds of elephant, buffalo, zebra, giraffe and sable in a backdrop of picturesque riverine landscapes.

Ghana wildlife is rich and diverse, with a large number of mammals, reptiles, insects and marine species to be found across the country's varied habitats. Unfortunately there is no one place in Ghana where you can see it all. Furthermore, many of the wildlife locations require long drive times.

There are 221 amphibian and reptile species, 724 bird species, and 225 mammalian species in Ghana. Of the bird species found in Ghana, about 66% live in the country all the time while the others are seasonal visitors. At least 20 species of endemic or near-endemic species of butterflies live in the country. There are several pressures on Ghana animals, including increased human land usage and overhunting. Poachers kill some wildlife for ivory or other body parts to use in traditional medicine.

The tawny eagle is the national animal of Ghana. This bird was chosen as a symbol of protection by strength. Two tawny eagles appear on the country’s crest, where they are seen with vigilant eyes as they are watching for signs of trouble.

Tanzania is a feast for the senses. It is unparalleled for its natural beauty, unique wildlife viewing, and rich culture. The landscape is shaped by extremes. Where mountains, lakes, grasslands, and rainforests are not uncommon to see within the same area. Also safaris in Tanzania are some of the best in the world, with most of them never going without seeing one of the “Big 5” of game animals: lions, leopards, rhinoceros’, elephants, and buffalo.

Samburu National Reserve is situated on the northern safari circuit of Kenya alongside Shaba and Buffalo Springs. This circuit is less visited due to its remote location in the north of Laikipia. Samburu is a very safe destination to visit. The park is well protected by professionally-trained Park Rangers and wildlife Wardens and is located hours away from the urban areas of Kenya where safety is more of a concern. ... It therefore receives keen attention in terms of security from the Government of Kenya.

However, visitors are rewarded by untouched wilderness, great wildlife densities and a safari experience away from some of Kenya's busier parks. Striking volcanic mountains backdrop the park, and scattered across Samburu's semi-arid plains between the red dust and shrubbery are large granite rocky outcrops, tall acacias and deep craters.
