How to plan a trip correctly?

When organizing a trip to another city or country, being spontaneous doesn't sound cool at all. There is a certain fascination in "throwing a dart at a card." Where will you go – you will go there. However, this can only work out well in Hollywood films. In reality, stability, safety and comfort while traveling is much more important. It depends on whether you like the trip or not. This means that you need to pay attention to careful preparation. Decide on the route, place of rest, transport, hotel and meals. Even luggage collection plays an important role in travel planning. Let's talk about simple tips on how to successfully organize a trip on your own.

Start planning ahead

The first thing to remember – and these are the selected travel dates. There is no need to do everything at the last moment if it is possible to start preparing for a trip six months or several months in advance. After you have chosen a country, a city that you have long dreamed of going to, buy round-trip tickets. This will allow you to define the boundaries of the trip and successfully plan all the important moments. Also, buying tickets six months in advance saves money, because their cost is then several times lower.

The next important step – This is to find out if you need a visa for the country of travel. If this document is required, then apply on the website of the embassy. And wait for a positive response. When important organizational issues have been resolved, it's time to start compiling the route. Write down the coordinates of all the places you want to visit. We also recommend that you find out more information about the country, take pictures of addresses, locations, phone numbers on your phone. This information can be very useful if you have problems in another country and need help.

Caring for your comfort – accommodation, food, luggage

By choosing a specific travel route, you will stop in different cities. So you will need rental accommodation. This is the best solution for independent travelers. You can book new places to stay every two-three days. Experiment and look for different rooms or apartments.

Also consider in advance which establishments you will eat at. Write down cafes, restaurants, bars that suit your requirements in a notebook. This will help not to waste time searching in a new city, but to immediately come to an interesting place with excellent cuisine. You can feel like a local and dine in the same establishments as the inhabitants of a small town (or a large metropolis). As for luggage, you should not take a lot of things with you. Be as mobile as possible, and pack as meticulously as possible (only the essentials).
