Visa Free To Shenghen by TolaniT97: 11:03am On Sep 13, 2023
Good day knowledgeable men of the travel section.

Pls I beg you all to contribute whatever knowledge and experience you have in this field to answer my questions

I reside in Nigeria and I have both Nigerian international passport and Seychelles passport. The later passport can access the Schengen region visa free but I'm not too sure what I'm to expect if I embark on such journey.

In reality, has anyone here travelled visa free to any European country? If so what were the conditions and requirements?

Do you have to border yourself with home-ties if you just want to visit for about2 weeks and return?

Pls people like @pansophist and the very active experts, pls help your brother shed some light on this matter

If you have a visa free passport to the Shenghen zone, then just buy your ticket and land. That's all.

Border officer may just joke with you that you shouldn't steal their women, or that you should try some local foods, but that's it.

Thanks for your quick response.

How about Covid 19 test, statement of account and stuffs like that?

Just like I stated above, I'm just wondering if there's anything else that will be required of me, such as Covid test result, financials e.t.c

Unnecessary. No one asks that. Thats the point of not needing a visa.

no need of Covid results or card but make sure you got money to spend over there. You don’t need any other documents aside your flight ticket and proof of hotel accommodation.

respect people’s choice, going on vacation is not Japa not everyone can leave abroad….see 70% of people that want to Japa can not cope with economic challenges and weather conditions overseas. I know what I’m talking about.

You mentioned having lots of money to spend.

I intend to get in through France, spend 3 days in Paris then move by train to Holland, spend 3 days, then move to Germany, spend 3 days and then to Belgium, another 3 days and finally back to France and round it up to a total of 3 weeks.

Apart from my flight ticket to and fro, do you think $3,000 will be enough for food, hotel and light fun?

Re: Visa Free To Shenghen by Zupay: 11:05am On Sep 14, 2023
I have a feeling that it is a runs Seychelles passport, that would be busted by Nigerian immigration officers at the airport as they did a guy who claimed he has Mauritius passport and was using it to head to Germany that was visa free for those who have the passport, it was FAKE and he was arrested.

He is good to go if he has a valid dual citizens document.

I hear hostels are far cheaper than hotels, and my friend told me transportation by land is also very cheap.

I don't need any Nigerian food as I'll be back in 2-3weeks time.

I.think I have to trim it down to 3 countries in 2 weeks. So pls which 3 countries will you suggest based on my budget??

All the people having wild thoughts should pls stay away because this isn't one of your Japa escapade, this is a 2 weeks vacation to get exposed to the Western world and system.

@ay, @pansophist and other men with good heart and wide range of experience can pls continue to shed more light.

Thanks

Bothered about what exactly?

Did I ask questions about security issues?

I asked about the cost of living and some of the things that actually requires experience to know.

Oga, head knowledge in theory and reading is far behind experiential knowledge. There's a reason I'm asking people like Pansophist to contribute. I would strongly advise you to relax and learn from those who have actually walked your walk.

Obviously, you either have difficulty in reading and comprehension or you're just a trouble maker.

Pls stay out of my post if you don't get my point.

any other 2 countries you want is fine but Paris is a must for you….beautiful city but be careful of bad guys at night in Paris some places is just like Osodi at night thieves everywhere. Also for good memories and places to see Paris is number one. Brussels is close to Paris also Germany is close to Brussels you can do the three countries like that.

3000 USD is more than enough if the budget is only for you.

SO download the app called ´´bookings´´, to book cheap hostels in any destination worldwide. You can see something for like 20 dollars per night in a shared room, or up to 50e per night for a private bedroom.

I would recommend using Airbnb though, especially if you want to cook your own meal. It is far cozy, can be cheaper, and the host will also serve as a guide in the city by giving vital information.

For transportation, download the app called ´´Flixbus¨. You can travel very cheaply with it across Europe. From Amsterdam to Brussels can be as low as 10 euros.

For food, download ubereats. Not because you have to order food online, but because it will show you all the restaurants around you, and then you either order or just walk to the place you want to eat.

But 3000 USD is more than enough. If it is me, even 1k, I will enjoy myself no joke. You will spend less if you know your way around Europe, and if you are not generally a very material person.

Backpacking is a normal activity for European youth. People will maybe be 500 USD and will travel for months. They get free accommodation via couchsurfing.com, and transportation via hitchhiking.

I have hitchhiked from Rotterdam (The Netherlands) to Presevo (Serbia) before, but that was a long time ago when the boy was a broke student. That was a 2000 km journey and I got free accommodation via couchsurfing.

All I am saying is that 3k is a lot, you will enjoy yourself.

The song niggas in Paris by Kanye west is real.

Don't expect Paris to be like the movies. If you go to the Eiffel tower, you would think you are in Cameroon. It's filled with west African migrants who are hawking stuff, with police chasing them like chickens daily.

I saw this video (link below) where an Asian lady went to Paris and was disappointed because it was filled with blacks grin
