YOUWILL LOSE THINGS
We promise you it will happen. Roll with it, there is a shop that sells it
somewhere in every country.
DOUBLE ADAPTERS ARE A MUST FOR AIRPORT
RECHARGING
Even if all the ports are taken, you can find someone who is willing to
share at least.
DON’T ASSUME THE CHEAP HOTELS ADVERTISING THE
DEALS ARE THE BEST
Check out business focused hotels for weekends, this is sometimes their
low time and they will run specials. Usually they have better facilities too.
ALWAYS CHECK THEWI-FI SITUATION BEFORE YOU
BOOK THE HOTEL
You will be amazed how much your trip planning can be derailed when
you can’t book ahead because the Wi-Fi is non-existent.
BOOK TICKETS TO ATTRACTIONS ONLINE IF POSSIBLE
Often the biggest line is for the ticket, not the attraction.
TRAVEL FORUMS ARE INVALUABLE
You can be assured that some other traveller has asked the question
somewhere. Lonely Planet’s website has a good one called the Thorn
Tree Forum.
GUIDE BOOKS ARE GREAT!
Seriously good to thumb a copy of a guide whilst you are on the train or
plane about to land. How else will you know about the hole-in-the-wall pub?
If you are travelling for the first time it can be exciting and
daunting in equal measure. And, there is no teacher like
experience – so we checked out the well-travelled members
of the OZtrail team for their hints and tips:
