10 Things To Take Care Before TRAVEL
- Have all soft copies of your Passport, VISA or any official ID’s on web/cloud or on mail.
- Check the expiry of your passport or blank pages in passport.
- Book all ONLINE Entry Tickets to Parks, Museums, Palaces, Amusement Park to save time in Q.
- Check all deals and offers going on Entertainers, Groupon or another App. Download them on mobile.
- Download Google Maps of preferred destinations on mobile so that they can be used offline.
- Put Cash and Credit Cards in different luggages because if lost then all is not lost.
- Purchase Tourist SIMs of local telecom operator on Airport itself.
- Carry minimal clothes to enjoy the tour. Looks can be changed by changing accessories like scarves, hats, goggles, jewellery.
- Always keep an eye for last minute deals. Some luxurious 5 star hotels have expensive deals initially, but before few days they release some rooms into super saver schemes. Also you can opt for stay in house-rentals or home rentals living like locals.
- If going in OFF SEASON then be prepared for some of the riversides or ropeway to be closed for maintenance purpose. Don’t crib as you are paying less for your tour compared to PEAK SEASON rates and also don’t face the overcrowded places.

Google maps, cash distribution, packing beforehand and other very useful tips.. thanks for sharing Yukti
These are all great tips for travelling. I always copy my travel documents but never thought of saving them in an email or cloud storage. I’ll definitely do that next time.
These are all important things to you know and remember when you are traveling. I don’t always think about local SIM cards but that does seem so important.
These are some very useful tips. I especially like the tip about putting cash and credit cards in other luggage, it’s so important and something we don’t think about! You’re also right about the 5-star hotels, they sometimes release deals and last minute too!
Thank you for this post! This is definitely steps I need to use because #8 the minimal clothes, I almost always seem to over pack thinking I don’t have enough.
Nice list that I will have to read everytime I travel. Especially number 3 that I always forget!
I guess you didnt do much hiking to that view spot by looking at your shoes!😂 Yes sometimes people who doesnt travel a lot do forget to check their passport just to later see that the passport is expired! Poor thing!
no hiked a lot in that sandals as I was not knowing about hiking part. Half of the part I traveled by car.
Great checklist about traveling. Simple and to the point. This would be great as a PDF for an opt-in for your business.
Thanks for your beautiful suggestion. Will try to incorporate
Great tips!! I am so disorganised and usually always end up running around like a maniac the day of travel!
I pinned this for when I go travelling next month as it will help me stay organized! I like the sound of having soft copies of important documents x
Google maps has become so much of a priority these days. I save all the destinations and their distances for the ease before travelling . Great pointers!
thank u so much for these tips! i would have to agree w/ securing photocopies of passport and Identification cards!
Wow, these are some great tips! Booking online entry tickets really saved time when we were travelling to Rome and I always scan important documents to keep them in email folder.
That is one of the best travel tips’ list I have come across. I always make sure to check Groupon and other such sites to check for best deals that I can benefit from at the last moment.
I have never been on a trip out of the country before. So i am going save this. Thanks for sharing.
Great tips! I do all of these before I travel. The most important is definitely bringing paper copies of your passport and other ID.
These are very great tips! especially the one about the credit cards in different luggage, I had this experience once, when I lost my credit card! It wasn’t nice at all, it was really horrible!! Thanks for sharing!
Your tips come in handy. Getting these things organized can reduce the anxiety of planning your next trip. Thanks for sharing.
It wasn’t until recently when I had done that tip #1. It can be easy to let your guard down when traveling and losing valuable documents isn’t going to help you out. Also, I make sure to check the expiry of my passport. That is a practical tip that every traveler should keep in mind.
Such a great & useful list, love how to the point you kept it. I never knew about the last minute deals in luxury hotels. So do you not book any accommodation till last minute to check if 5 star hotels have any last minute deals? Sorry I am bit clueless about how this works and would like to know more 🙂

I love traveling off season due to the brilliant offers you can get from luxury hotels. I keep all my bookings and passport stored into one app which works without internet as well and gives you map locations and flight notifications. It’s brilliant!
I love the tip about keeping an eye out for last minute deals. My husband and I so rarely do that because once we have a spot paid for we rarely change. Also the idea of bringing minimal clothes. I’m the worst over-packer there was and really need to take this one to heart! x
I am a heavy packer and I always pack extra trying to keep it minimal. In my trip to Paris, I left my coat behind in expectation of a warmer weather, so now I always pack extra 😀 I like the idea of sim cards at airport only, although I prefer buying sim 3-4 days ahead of me with data plan active.
A very handy list of 10 things to take care before you travel. Some could be easily overlooked such as checking the number pages in the passport.. or the last minute deals in luxurious hotels. I have seen a few people carry the whole wardrobe when travelling but its so true that the looks can be changed with creativity! And you keep the space for shopping. The point on online bookings is very true which in a way also makes you check if the place is open on the intended travel day. Once in East Malaysia, we ended driving a long distance to see a museum only to find out it was closed, like many places for Chinese new year celebration! Only if we had checked online beforehand! Haha
