Boost the pleasure of a perfect holiday by planning well in advance. Here are tips based on the experiences of seasoned travelers! First, get all the information. Guidebooks, travelogues, travel literature, maps, and brochures are stepping-stones to start you off. There are the standard travelers' bibles like the country- and city-specific guides from lonely Planet, Fodors, Rough Guide, EyeWitness, and Footprint publications. Browse the titles you are after in a bookshop or library before buying any. Do not buy old editions because the very latest edition will still be at least a year old. The Internet is the ultimate resource. Look for travel forums where you can interact with other travelers and post any questions you can think of. There are hundreds of traveler blogs to read, and your dilemma would be to choose the ones that would be relevant or of special interest. Travel.alltop.com brings you the five most recently published articles from over 70 travel blogs and websites. Jawed Ahmad ID2198 - Although it will cost more, if you are carrying items that simply MUST NOT be lost by the airlines, consider sending them ahead by courier service. Your items will be at your destination when you arrive and you will not have the hassle of lugging them with you wherever you go. Bryan Stone ID2180 - Before going abroad, it's worth doing some research on what to do once there. Each city you visit will have a lot of options and there is nothing worse than spending most of your time deciding on how to spend your days. The Internet provides us with so much information, that it would be a crime not to use it. Simply go to Google and type in queries such as (using Dublin as an example) 'Dublin + Travel Tips'. This will give you some ideas on what to do once there. Speaking of Dublin travel tips, be sure to visit Dublin Hotels and Destination Guide for tips and a helpful city guide. Kieran Flanagan ID2193 - Eating yogurt before you travel is a great way to help cope with bacterial infestations. However, if you are lactose-intolerant, yogurt is not an option. Try 'probiotics' capsules instead. They are available in most stores that sell vitamins, as well as your health food store. Look for 'acidophilus' on the label. Good preparations will contain various *active* strains of lactobacillus and bifidobacterium longum. These probiotics help your system to fortify its own natural defence against the bacteria found in the water supplies, fresh fruits, uncooked vegetables, etc. of foreign countries. 111 Travel Directory: Bed and Breakfasts and more ... 111 Travel Directory: Bed and Breakfasts and more ... ID1767 - Always carry wet naps in your bags, and tissue paper. A long cord is useful for a clothesline if you need to wash something and hang it overnight to dry.
