Wikivoyage:Tourist office
Welcome to the tourist office
The Wikivoyage tourist office is a place where you can ask travel-related questions about any place in the world. Wikivoyage volunteers will do their best to find the relevant information (or just reply off the top of their expert heads) and reply to you. Before you ask your question here, be sure to search our travel guide for the destination or topic you're considering. Many questions are already answered within our guides! In addition, some of our destinations have docents who have volunteered to answer questions about specific places. If neither of those avenues bear fruit, then please ask away! This page is for travel-related questions only. Information on how to contribute to Wikivoyage is at Help:Contents, while questions about Wikivoyage itself may be posed at the Pub. Queries regarding general information on non-travel topics may be made at Wikipedia's Reference desk; some topics tangentially related to travel include:
Please note that we can not guarantee a response and can not be held liable for incorrect or outdated information. Answered questions will be moved to the Archives after two weeks of inactivity. Want a faster answer? How can I get my question answered?

We do our best, but nothing on this page or elsewhere on the site can be guaranteed to be up-to-date or entirely accurate.

But can I eat?
[edit]I live in a very isolated city in Australia. I want to travel somewhere for a couple of days. Domestic travel in Australia is horrifically expensive, so I was looking a little further yonder (perhaps SE Asia). HOWEVER, I cannot eat spicy food. I'm allergic to onion, capsicum, mushrooms and peppers. Is there anywhere I could go where I can actually eat the food? Asked by: Kryspix (talk) 07:58, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
- I think you could get non-spicy food, but I suspect that your allergies will make things difficult. How serious are your allergies? Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:00, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
- I mean, I wouldn't end up in hospital, but I wouldn't want to spend the trip on the toilet. Kryspix (talk) 00:41, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Much Philippine food is non-spicy, though some dishes are fairly potent. In China it depends on the region; you'd need to avoid Sichuan, Hunan & some other provinces, but would likely be OK in Fujian, Guangdong or some of the others. Either of those countries would be relatively cheap. Japan also has lots of non-spicy food, as does much of Europe or North America, but those would be more expensive.
- Is NZ a possibility? Pashley (talk) 01:37, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- I assume OP would have the same issues travelling to NZ – it's just about as expensive to travel as it is domestically within Australia. --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 01:39, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- yeah NZ would be a dream but makes my wallet cry. Kryspix (talk) 04:29, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Japan is one of the best places to visit because of the fresh seafoods and weak yen. Stanleykswong (talk) 20:39, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
Also Singapore has food from all over the world which has to include non-spicy alternatives. Singapore is a bit more expensive than the rest of SE Asia, however not on par with Western countries. Also you may want to have a look at our Budget travel, Minimum budget travel and Flying on a budget articles for tips to cut costs. --Ypsilon (talk) 07:13, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Bali is reasonably close & gets much Aussie tourism especially around Christmas (perhaps go at another time?). Indonesian food is often spicy but Bali has plenty of Western food. Pashley (talk) 14:13, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

- This seems like a particular type of history, not something you'd see in a travel guide, and are all those stages really applicable? Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:58, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
