When you travel, you must make a good strategy in advance, but it's absolutely too soon to have only two or three days to do it. Time is absolutely not enough, and it is not feasible.
but this is not absolute. if you are traveling with a group, you can just prepare your carry-on clothes or something. If you prepare for go on road trip, this time is not a big problem.
only free travel, not including short trips, three or two days is definitely not enough. My experience is at least one month in advance. Why is this? For long-distance travel, it is a problem to buy tickets in advance. It takes 28 days to buy tickets online, 3 days to buy tickets at the railway station, and it is extremely difficult to buy the lower berth of the train hard sleeper in the off-season or peak season, which is exactly one of the travel hardware.
For example, it takes more than 5 hours from Guangzhou to Lhasa. Do you know how inconvenient it would be if there were no lower berth? Especially older travelers, can they get on the bus and have the cheek to change the berth with others?
Everything is done in advance. My experience is that if several places are planned for a free trip, and each place is several days in advance, you must buy a berth ticket in advance and take a berth in the evening, which can save money and travel time.
even if you have enough time and money, and the high-speed train is particularly convenient, you need to make a strategy two or three days in advance.
Traveling is the same as doing things at ordinary times. You need to plan and prepare with a rigorous attitude to make your trip more enjoyable.
The photos in the picture are all taken by my mobile phone.
let me answer this question.
after retirement, I like traveling, and I travel more than twice a year. Footprints have not only traveled to most provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions of the motherland, but also traveled to more than a dozen countries such as Southeast Asia with backpacks, ranging from ten days and a half months to three or four months. Every time I travel abroad, I don't just make a travel guide two or three days in advance, because backpacking abroad involves a series of problems such as passport visa and special ticket reservation. Some of them have made travel strategies two or three months before going out to travel.
Because domestic travel is relatively simple, it is very difficult to travel freely abroad with backpacks, especially for a 7-year-old man who organized his own group and didn't know English at all (Russian we learned in those years), so it is difficult to take my friends abroad.
I made a good strategy for going abroad freely mainly from these aspects.
first, the reservation of air tickets and the visa of passports. Must be placed in the first place in the travel strategy.
because some countries can only get there by plane, even if they have land. For example, Thailand tourism is like this. So how to book a cheap and discounted round-trip air ticket is the focus of the raiders. I have been to Thailand for four times, and every time I choose a cheap air ticket from AirAsia, I book that time slot at the cheapest time. For example, in February 217, I took two friends to Thailand, and the round-trip air ticket from Guangzhou was only a little over 1,, which was more than 2, yuan cheaper than the non-discounted air ticket. Secondly, the passport and visa should be carefully planned in the travel strategy. Take a trip to the Philippines as an example. When is the right time to travel?
How long should I travel? Should I submit my visa to the travel agency? Or go to Guangzhou to sign it in person at the Philippine Consulate in Guangzhou. These must be clearly planned in the raiders.
second, finding accommodation and arriving at scenic spots are the difficulties in foreign travel strategies.
Because it is backpacking, it is the biggest difficulty to find cheap hotels abroad. For example, taking Thailand as an example, when doing the strategy, we should not only look for the strategy from books such as Thailand, but also look for the experience of the donkey friends from websites such as Baidu and Honeycomb. For example, many backpackers will mention that the "base camp" of backpackers in Bangkok, Thailand is the Kaoshan area. I have traveled several times to find a small hotel with moderate price in Kaoshan. As for the sightseeing of scenic spots, the focus is on the search for round-trip transportation and the raiders of the rules of scenic spots. So in May 215, we visited Angkor in Cambodia. From the raiders, we know that Fiona Fang, the scenic spot of Angkor Wat, is tens of kilometers, and you must bring your own car for three days. The first thing we did when we arrived in Angkor was to look for Chinese and ask them to help us find a taxi driver who can speak Chinese. As a result, we found an overseas Chinese descendant to accompany us to visit Angkor Wat for three days. He was both a driver and a tour guide. Because there was no language barrier, we had a good time.
Third, the understanding of the folk customs of various countries and the taboo things when traveling to the country must be the focus of the strategy, otherwise it will bring serious consequences. For example, in September 216, I took my friend's backpack to Singapore for a free trip. When I was doing the raiders, I learned that Singapore imposes heavy penalties on smoking and spitting in public places, all of which are fines of thousands of Singapore dollars (equivalent to more than 5, yuan), especially for spitting, even if you spit in the street sewer. My fellow friends not only smoke, but also suffer from bronchitis, and they like spitting best. Walking in the street several times, he forgot the smoking regulations in Singapore and took out a cigarette. Fortunately, I found it in time to remind him, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. In order not to spit everywhere, he specially brought his own plastic bag and paper towel, spit into the paper towel and put it into the plastic bag, and then find the trash can before handling it. For example, in 217, we celebrated the Songkran Festival in Thailand. One night, my companion Zhang and I took a shower and changed clothes to go shopping. Walking out of the gate, Zhang was suddenly poured from head to foot by a pot of cold water from two beautiful women in Thailand, and he was soaked to the skin. Zhang is about to get angry. I learned from the raiders that this splashing water means blessing good luck and peace! It's rude to get angry. I quickly explained to Zhang that Zhang also threw a bucket of water at the two beautiful women. Ushered in a game full of laughter.
Fourth, when traveling abroad, we should take life safety as the top priority. After traveling abroad, being in a foreign country, many unexpected events may bring serious personal and property losses to tourists. For example, when I traveled to the Philippines in 216, there were many incidents in which tourists were arrested on one of its islands. We went to travel in May, and when we were doing the raiders, we decided to take Manila as the tourist destination, and other islands were no longer beautiful. Avoid the occurrence of tragedy. Another example is that on November 22nd, 21, Xu Jun and I were traveling in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. When doing the raiders, I have learned that although the nightlife in Phnom Penh is rich and colorful, the safety factor for retired people is much smaller. So we stayed by the TV at night and never went out. That night, we learned from TV that there was a stampede on the Diamond Bridge in Phnom Penh that shocked the whole world, killing more than 37 people and injuring more than 7 people. Early the next morning, we rushed to diamond island to see the blood and shoes left under the bridge, which was terrible. Fortunately, the raiders were prepared in advance to prevent this tragedy from happening to us.
I have more than two or three days in advance to make a good strategy for both domestic and foreign travel. Ensure safe and smooth travel.
It is generally necessary to make a strategy in advance when traveling abroad, and some homework must be done. If you have two or three days to prepare, it may be more detailed.
when traveling, we should first understand the weather, local customs, scenic spots, living habits, etc. of the tourist destination. We don't need to be detailed, but we should also get a general idea. In this way, no matter what problems you encounter, you will be targeted and calmly deal with them.
Next, you do a series of preparatory work according to the information you have learned. Preparations include: general articles for travel, such as toiletries, clothes, daily necessities, etc., and some emergency medicines should be prepared for emergencies.
Then, you need to make a plan, which includes, according to your travel mode-whether you are traveling with a group, traveling alone, or go on road trip.
if you travel with a group, you don't have to prepare anything, just make preparations according to the travel requirements of the travel company; If you are traveling freely or in go on road trip, you have to make a good preparation. On the one hand, you have to figure out how to get there, which route is the best, which scenic spots you want to go to, and so on.
Also, you need to know the accommodation at the destination in advance. If possible, you'd better book it in advance. If you are lucky, you may get a discount price by booking it in advance. Why not?
before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass come first. I think that is to say, with careful and thoughtful preparations, your journey will be smooth and comfortable.
the above is only my personal opinion, for reference only.
It is the key to improve the quality of travel/travel and do a good job in travel strategy
This topic is very good!
Traveling abroad is not just about sightseeing, but also about taking pictures. Therefore, you need to know something about the culture, landscape, punching places, special attractions and other information of the tourist destination in advance before you can take meaningful pictures.
and, according to the hotel where you stay, check the traffic routes of the scenic spots you want to visit and confirm the travel mode.
I have my own experience. If you don't have to take a taxi in the same city (in the city you are visiting), taking the bus and subway is also a different experience of tourism. It is also very pleasant to observe the city and experience the life of local people. Therefore, it is necessary to check the bus route!
when traveling in China, I will also sign up for a one-day tour group in the local area. Because there is no private car in the local area, and time is limited, one-day tour has convenient bus and local tour guide service, and it is economical to visit several scenic spots in one day, which greatly saves the time for personal free travel.
for this reason, it is more necessary to make travel strategies at home: the route of one-day tour, the choice of scenic spots, the planning duration, the distance between the meeting place and the hotel (whether the guests can be picked up at home), the meeting/breaking point and time, etc., and it is more necessary to know in detail.
In a word, our tourism is a part of cultural life, which needs to be constantly summarized. Improving the quality of tourism/travel is the key.
well, a tourist/photographer is unusual.
Thank you for inviting me. I'm Yaya.
If I travel abroad, I will make a good strategy in advance.
To sum up, I need to know the specific scenery and humanities, how to play, what's interesting and delicious, historical and cultural accommodation routes, etc. Then it is to experience with your heart and appreciate the scenery along the way. Because there is a time limit, it is best to do a good job of raiders, so as not to waste time.
Travel is not a "walk-and-go trip". A good strategy can make the travel experience deeper and enjoy the fun of travel. This can also reflect whether a person is organized and has a plan.
Actually, traveling, like doing anything, has a macro and micro consideration, and there are many such famous sayings, such as: Don't fight an unprepared battle; Know yourself and know yourself; Plan ahead and win the battle thousands of miles away. These sentences are all about planning, preparation and strategy.
if a person does things without thinking, it will be a mess. In daily life, if there is no plan, it will also cause hectic, and the way of thinking determines the way out.
Of course, there are many forms of traveling abroad, so the travel strategy is different. Let me take go on road trip as an example to make a travel strategy. First, plan a "road book"
A few years ago, in go on road trip, because mobile navigation was not very convenient, the tourist route was outlined on the map before departure, and the daily itinerary was marked.
Now mobile navigation is very convenient and accurate. Basically, mobile navigation is the main city.
the overall itinerary is planned. "Road Book" was made in the web version of Gaode Map, because the web version of Gaode Map has this function and is very convenient. Enter the starting point and passing point of each day, and you can also get a master plan. It is very convenient to print screenshots or send them to your mobile phone.
The following "Road Book" is the general map of go on road trip Qinghai Gansu Great Ring Road from August 13th to 25th this year.
in 11 days, I started from Xi' an, passing through Tianshui, Qinghai Lake, Chaka Salt Lake, Delingha, Dachaidan, Mangya, Lenghu Town, Dunhuang, Jiayuguan, Zhangye, Wuwei and Lanzhou, and finally returned to Xi' an, with a total journey of 4,718 kilometers, 7 days in the hotel and 3 days in the car. After the whole journey, I feel basically consistent with the "road book".
The only place that doesn't quite match is the trip from Dachaidan to Mangya. Due to lingering on several good scenery on the road, the time was delayed, and more than 1 kilometers were caught at night. Second, there is no strict regulation on the time taken to do the raiders.
The topic owner said that it is necessary to do the raiders two or three days in advance, which needs to be treated according to specific circumstances. It won't take long if you just punch in to the scenic spot. If you travel in depth, it may take months or even a year.
if it's just a punch-in tour to a tourist attraction, you only need to plan the route, accommodation, time required, etc.
If you need to travel in depth, or even write something, you should do your homework in advance and know something about the humanities, history, legends and allusions of the scenic spots.
for the Hexi Corridor in go on road trip, I bought a travel book, A Journey along the Silk Road, written by American writer Bill Porter, A Journey to the Yang Pass in the West written by Xiao Zhongshan, Fifteen Lectures on the Archaeology of the Silk Road written by Lin Meicun, and the Silk Road-A Brand-new World History written by British writer Peter Franco.
just imagine that it will take several months to finish reading these books.
Last year, I traveled from Xi 'an to Chengdu by car in five days during the Spring Festival, and it took me a few hours to make a road book and a guide. Because I have been to Chengdu more than a dozen times before and after, I am very familiar with it. I just travel with my family, and I don't need to do a guide. Third, travel as a team, try to do a good job of raiders
If several families or friends team up in go on road trip in several cars, try to do a good job of raiders, so that the drivers of several cars know the route and driving distance, otherwise they will easily lose track of them.
Sometimes there are several people or cars in go on road trip, so it is necessary to make a good strategy in advance, so that everyone can know the daily driving route, scenic spots, meeting places, accommodation and food arrangements, etc.
especially as a team leader or organizer, it is very important to have an overall view and always know the position of each car. Fourth, according to the actual situation, adjust the strategy at any time
Traveling abroad does not have to be carried out in full accordance with the strategy, and sometimes there will be some unexpected situations. For example, road construction, scenic spots closed, and tight accommodation. In this case, we should make adjustments immediately, otherwise it will be easy to make mistakes. Sometimes, once an error occurs and it is not corrected in time, it may
