Travel blog for families & couples – airline, hotel & lounge reviews
Welcome to miles-around, the German-language travel blog for couples and families! We share first-hand experiences from flights in First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy and Economy Class – with airlines like Turkish Airlines, Condor and SWISS – reviewing cabins on short- and long-haul routes. We also feature over 50 lounge reviews from around the world, from Priority Pass lounges to exclusive airline lounges at airports like Frankfurt, Istanbul and Singapore. Our hotel reviews cover everything from four-star city hotels to five-star luxury resorts, always based on personal stays rather than press material. We have explored destinations like Singapore, Thailand, Mexico, the USA and Egypt ourselves, sharing what truly matters – whether travelling as a family, as a couple or on business.

After spending the last few days exploring the city center in our rental car, we wanted to visit Nice today. Since our vacation apartment is located on a hill above Nice, the journey there was quite short. Saint Nicholas Cathedral – Nice. First, we drove to Saint Nicholas Cathedral. This is probably the most visited historical monument in Nice. […]
We drove to Monaco, the second smallest country in the world, in our rental car this morning. The drive from Nice takes about 45 minutes, depending on traffic. We stopped at a viewpoint above Villefranche-sur-Mer. From there, we had a fantastic view of the bay and a cruise ship anchored in the harbor. We continued along […]
After yesterday's tiring and rather long day, we slept in today. After a French breakfast, we hopped into our rental car and drove to the town of Grasse and then on to the coast to Cannes. When you hear the name Grasse, you certainly think first of perfume, which the town has been known for since […]
