In this post we provide a suggestion for how to organize your trip if you don’t know how to start building your itinerary.
Tip: organize one activity & one meal for each day of the trip.
Whether you’re traveling alone, with a group of people with varied interests and tastes, or are not sure where to begin, having an activity and meal helps shape your day.
Why we recommend this approach:
Each day of your trip you have something to look forward to
Researching ahead of time gets you excited for the trip, knowledgeable about the area and creates potential for finding hidden gems along the way
Planning ensures that your dollars are being spent wisely on activities, experiences and food that is worth the cost (be it large or small)
Gets you out and about around town so you spent the entire trip in the hotel/accommodation if that is a preferred way of travel for people in your group
For those who prefer a more restful experience, they will be more open to joining in because they don’t feel over-scheduled or trip run by an itinerary
Creates spontaneity for those who like to wander about town
Not too overwhelming for people who are ambivalent about planning
At the end of the trip, you can point to specific things that you did, saw or tried
