Travel Tips for Your Next Adventure
Vacation anticipation is half the fun! Knowing you are about to explore a new destination and create unforgettable experiences is bound to get your adrenalin going. But let's face it, planning is sometimes too much to do. There are so many options and so many details that need to be addressed.
How do you get started? You work with us. Storymakers Travel specializes in custom-designing amazing vacations for families, honeymooners, individuals, and groups. We will ensure you enjoy your journey, your way.
Here are some practical, travel-savvy ideas to help you plan your next adventure.
1. Pick a destination based on what you want to experience. It should be in line with your travel style. Do you want adventure, relaxation, or cultural immersion? Are you dreaming of forests, historic cities, or Caribbean shores?
2. Lock in your dates and plan early. This will give you better rates on tours and room requirements before they sell out. The best rooms sell out the fastest. If you have a need for 4 or more people in a room, this is very important. For group travel, you need to book well in advance. Juggling multiple agendas takes time. Storymakers Travel can help.
3. Travel light and pack tight. Avoid overpacking by making a list of must-haves based on the weather and activities at your destination. Lightweight clothing, swimwear, and sunscreen are important when going on vacation to the Caribbean, Mexico, or Hawaii.
4. Stay Safe and up to date on local customs, regulations, and safety regulations. Staying in touch is important when traveling in groups. Make sure you have each other's contact information and decide where to meet.
5. Buy travel insurance. Storymakers Travel highly recommends having travel insurance to protect against unforeseen problems, such as cancellation, illness, or loss of luggage.
6. Keep valuables secure by wearing a money belt. Do not display expensive products.
7. Know your local emergency numbers and the embassy/consulate where you live.
8. Traveling to foreign countries is a privilege. Be respectful to the people in those countries.
Know Basic Grammar: "Hello," "Thank you," and "please" in the local dialect convey respect.
Be Prepared for Culture Conversion: Gentlemen may need to dress modestly in churches or small towns.
Support Small Businesses: Eat in small restaurants, buy from small traders, and pick local tour guides.
