Tips for Planning a Holiday

Planning a holiday is always an exiting thing to do – and it’s pretty important. Here are some of my tips for planning and researching the next place you are going.

1.       Research

There is a lot of information out there and one of the best things you can to is use it. Research the place you are going and learn about the way things work there, learn about the things that you don’t want to miss.

2.       Don’t just go the the tourist website.

Most places have one, a visit us website. While the website does have some information, and for certain things is super useful, they aren’t really going to tell you valuable tips and what to avoid. Try and find some blogs or something and read what people thought and the things they learnt from their trip.

3.       Make a list.

This isn’t for everybody. But I find that making a list of everything I want to do when I am somewhere makes sure we don’t miss out on anything we want to do. This is also great if you don’t want to make an itinerary.

4.       Have all your information with you

When you are travelling overseas you will need to pull your passport out about 5 times and you never know when you’ll need your hotel address, activates or transport details. My family always prints out al the information we need because that way we can bring it with us everyday, and we don’t need to worry about laptops.

5.       Research the public transport.

In most places, there is a really good public transport system and they have visitors passes for tourists. Research if the place you are visiting has one of these, because public transport is a great way to get to know a new place.

Happy planning,
