Planning a trip can be daunting, time consuming for some…. especially if it’s
your first time. Some may also fret about overspending as a result of failing to
plan their trip properly.
Below is my checklist of questions I go through when planning a trip:
- Which city(s) am I visiting?
- Will I be traveling alone?
- How long am I staying?
- What do I want to do there?
- How am I getting there?
- Where do I plan to stay? (eg. In the city centre)
- What’s my daily budget for a hotel?
- How do I plan to get around the city?
- Which city tours should I join?
- Should I join a city cruise?
- Am I visiting the outskirts? If yes, will it be a day trip or 1 night stay?
- Am I getting a local SIM card or relying 100% on my existing telco for
roaming data? - How much (on average) will 3 daily meals cost?
- How much will I be spending on souvenirs?
- How much will I be spending on entertainment?
