How to make a free travel plan for parent-child travel? What should I pay attention to when taking my children to travel?

Many parents may find such a problem when they take their children out to play, that is, choose to travel freely or join a group. Sign up for the group, the children can't stand it, travel freely, and the plan is not good. Here are some suggestions for free travel in Bian Xiao. You can have a look.

How to make a suitable road map

1, the first rule of the road map is that companionship is very important. Don't surf alone.

Three people travel, mom or dad wants to go somewhere to play some mobile games, and the other half stays to take care of the children. This is normal, even when traveling. Afterwards, I deeply understand that traveling is not a trip for one person or two people, but with children. So, go surfing with your children as much as possible, whether it's windy or rainy, as long as everyone is together.

2, the principle of appropriate roadmap 2, try not to change the child's eating habits.

Southerners are used to the light and original flavor of Cantonese food, but they are really not used to sour and spicy food. And because of their own reasons, can not eat seafood, can not eat fried. Therefore, every time you travel, try to choose a light taste. Children at home may be used to the taste of home and can't eat spicy food (children try not to give him spicy food, and the intake of salt is also controlled (that is, the taste is not heavy, but light). What about traveling? For example, when you go to Yunnan, you are used to heavy taste (Cantonese say that you can eat spicy food even if you don't put Chili fry, because their pot has long been filled with Chili flavor. Solve the problem of three meals a day and try to choose a restaurant that caters to Cantonese tastes. If the hotel doesn't have a buffet, go to a nearby convenience store, such as 7- 1 1, Costco, OK and so on. When making the road map, we should also consider the surrounding facilities of the hotel. Insisting on not changing children's eating habits is also to avoid children's gastrointestinal discomfort. After all, children are not as adaptable as adults. If you really can't cater to it, you can either choose to let your children eat less, such as washing dishes with water before eating.

3. Principle of Appropriate Roadmap Article 3: The travel time should be appropriate.

Travel time refers to the time required to reach the scenic spot. Some children are quiet boys/girls with "silence is golden", but others are active boys/girls with skills and talents. Quiet boys/girls are easy to deal with, but the active ones are really a headache. The biggest fear is to get on the plane and make a scene. This is a nightmare.

It's hard to say that children of different ages travel differently. For example, if a child is three years old, the time for not crying on public transport is about 2 hours, and the limit value is 4 hours. Generally, it is calculated by observing the time that children take buses, private cars and long-distance buses every day. Each family has its own way, so I won't go into details here. Anyway, it is not recommended to exceed the limit of children, so as not to affect the mood of travel.

4, the principle of appropriate roadmap Article 4, set the itinerary according to the child's timetable.

Actually, it's not your trip, it's your child's trip. What does this mean? After traveling, children's life and schedule may be disrupted. If children are too young to go to bed on time, crying is common. Therefore, your travel plan should be coordinated with your child's itinerary. Otherwise, when you get to the scenic spot, the children will make a scene and make you not in the mood to play.

Find out which strategy is stronger.

1, what is worth buying?

If you don't put Aunt Zhang in the first place, it is estimated that it is worth buying a small series. Worth buying and checking.

There are many original articles worth buying, such as food, how to play and so on. But in all fairness, due to the lack of scientific management, the whole looks chaotic and lacks very accurate search methods.

2, backpacking rabbits

Different from other free travel websites, backpackers customize their itinerary in map mode instead of traditional itinerary customization mode. This customization mode is intuitive, which may not be suitable for the first time, but it can be easily used after a while.

You can also use the trip creation function without registration, and you can only create one trip. Click on the place you want to go and join the journey. The map customization mode can visually see the distance between scenic spots, so you can calculate how long it takes for different scenic spots to arrive. What means of transportation are needed between different scenic spots can be found in "Transportation" in the toolbar on the right, and will also give users specific travel routes.

There are also road maps provided by other users for reference. Although the itinerary creation mode is easy to use, the route strategy is not rich and the detailed description part is not very detailed, which needs to be improved.

route selection

Choose the third-party all-inclusive line (hotel+airport/air ticket) or DIY line (hotel+airport/air ticket, Youhavetomakeachoice).

The so-called one-price all-inclusive means through travel websites, such as where to go and Ctrip. These websites will have many routes to choose from, such as three days and two nights in a certain place, five days and four nights in a certain place and so on. The packages of such websites basically include tourists' travel expenses (such as plane, train and accommodation). Buyers only need to make their own itinerary and go to the airport/railway station according to the corresponding time. You don't need to waste time booking air tickets and hotels yourself.

If time is short, you can choose a third-party all-inclusive price. What's the difference between them? Choose Sanya and Hong Kong here, starting from Guangzhou. All-inclusive third-party websites choose Ctrip and Zhu Fei. As for DIY route, the hotel chooses Taobao, and the airline official website chooses air ticket reservation. The departure date is 65438+1Tuesday, and the return date is 65438+1Friday. The number of people is set at two big and one small. Let's compare the price.

Sanya 1

I have to spit out Ctrip's chaotic quotation system here. Through the free travel package on Ctrip's homepage, the total price was customized to 4074 yuan, and Hainan Airlines was selected as the ticket. The round-trip air ticket price is 9 10 yuan (including 750 yuan+airport construction fee 160 yuan). The hotel chose the harbor room of Harman Resort Sanya, 399 yuan a night.

The "free travel" on the home page searches for free travel packages with the same conditions. The same airline, the same flight, the same hotel, the price has become 5266 yuan (excluding insurance, as shown below:

Same itinerary, different quotations. Is this not a joke?

Let's see where to go, choose the same flight and the same hotel, but the room type defaults to harbor room (that is, the room type is reduced, there is no superior room, and the price is only 5076 yuan.

If you booked it yourself, log in to HNA official website on the same day to check the ticket price. Adult one-way ticket includes tax 7 15 yuan.

Taobao search Sanya Harman Hotel. Search results show that the price of a superior room for one night is 6XX yuan, and staying for three nights is about 1800- 1900 yuan. If you buy the Harman hotel package, three nights 1888 yuan, including other services (room type upgrade, dinner, etc.

Well, comparatively speaking, which is more valuable?

Ctrip: 4074 yuan /54 10 yuan included (round-trip air ticket+harbour room for 3 nights excluding breakfast+insurance). Here, if you book a plane ticket separately through Ctrip, the adult who takes Hainan Airlines to Sanya is 12XX yuan, which is about 3XX yuan more expensive than that 4074 yuan package. This makes people feel a little unreasonable. After choosing the air ticket+hotel package, the air ticket discount is 3XX yuan? This is either a problem with the system display or illogical.

Where to go: 5076 yuan included, round-trip air ticket+harbour room for 3 nights including breakfast+1 trip.

Self-help air ticket booking+hotel package: 6 178 yuan, including two adults+one child round-trip air ticket +3 nights deluxe sea view room or 180 degree sea view room package provided by hotel official website.

2. Hong Kong

Then set the itinerary to Hong Kong. Since Guangzhou is not far from Hong Kong, I choose to book a hotel directly. Departure date 65438+1October 23rd (Tuesday, return date 65438+1October 26th (Friday. The number of people is set at two big and one small.

Where are you going? The total price of Disney Hollywood Hotel for three nights is 3228 yuan.

Ctrip needs 3366 yuan.

Flying pig, one night 1052 yuan, total price of three nights 3 152 yuan. The difference between the most expensive and the cheapest is only 2 14 yuan, which is reasonable.

In fact, through comparison, it can be found that no matter Ctrip, where to go or customization, the actual price difference will not be obvious. The purchase price of third-party websites may have some advantages (such as full discount coupons, full discount, etc.). ), but the difference should not be much cheaper than the order. The reasonable price difference should be around several hundred yuan, and too big a price difference always makes people feel unreliable. As long as the price difference is within the appropriate range, choose the lowest price.

Tip 1: Choose the official flagship store/scenic flagship store/park APP, and the price may be surprising. For example, Chimelong APP provides hotel reservations, scenic spots tickets and other purchase services. If you book a hotel 14 days in advance, the price you buy in advance has an advantage over other channels, and there is official guarantee, so you are not afraid of being cheated. In fact, some large hotels/scenic spots in China also have similar apps, so you may wish to pay more attention.

Tip 2: If you don't have a clue about the route and don't know what is worth seeing in your destination, you can refer to some travel agencies' free travel routes or tour with a group, and then make appropriate adjustments according to your own conditions to create your own free travel routes.

What equipment /APP should I bring to travel?

Children of different ages need to carry different equipment. I believe that the parents of the children all know, and I don't need to say more. As for some "hard currency" and some seemingly dispensable things, here are some suggestions.

1, BB car

This is definitely a contradictory choice. When your child is tired, BB car can free your hands and take your child everywhere without worrying about where to rest. If you are tired, you can also put your luggage on the BB car. But BB car is a big burden for long-distance travel. You need oversized luggage to board the plane. After arriving at the destination, if your child is willing to take the bus, then there is no problem. If not, you'll have to push the BB car around. In crowded places, this BB car has become a burden. If you take the subway, there will be fewer passengers. If you have a large passenger flow, it is really difficult for this BB car to get on the subway. When I went to Shanghai, I met the peak of the working day, pushing a BB car to squeeze the subway, which was really fucking terrible.

Therefore, it is suggested that you can take BB bus for short-distance travel or travel in the province. If you travel across provinces or long distances, you may wish to use a waist stool. Although a little tired, it is much more convenient than BB car.

2. Long-sleeved coat

Whether it is summer or winter, it is absolutely useful to give children a long-sleeved coat. During the ride, a long-sleeved coat is not afraid that the air conditioner in the carriage is too cold to make your child catch cold, but it can be used as a small pillow in winter, so the long-sleeved coat is definitely an artifact for long-distance travel.

3, anti-mosquito liquid

This is also a contradictory choice. In some cities, the subway is not allowed to carry it. Anti-mosquito liquid will be detained during security inspection, and it is necessary to check the anti-mosquito liquid when getting on the bus. If you go to some tropical areas, the benefits of mosquito repellent are obvious, which can prevent your baby from being bitten by mosquitoes. It is suggested that the mosquito repellent can be carried in a moderate amount, and the amount does not need too much, about 100ml. If you are an adult, you can buy it locally. When you meet the subway security check, carry the baby mosquito repellent directly with you, and the general security check will not search you.

4, diapers/pants

For the little BB who needs to wear diapers, it is still very troublesome to travel, such as taking diapers/pull-up pants. Because diapers/pull-up pants are consumables, they occupy a lot of space in the suitcase when they go out, and leave a lot of space in the suitcase when they come back. If your baby urinates a lot, you may need more diapers/pull-ups. Here, it is suggested that Ma Baobao's father who needs to carry a lot of diapers/pull-up pants can be equipped appropriately when flying/training, and buy diapers/pull-up pants of the same brand in the local area after arriving in the tourist city. If you are too lazy to go out for a walk, you can buy it directly from JD.COM and it will arrive soon.

5, map APP

Personally, I prefer two map apps, Baidu Map and Gaode Map. As for whether it is good or not, let's look at personal habits. Some friends may think that one APP is easier to use, while the other is not. Anyway, they just have to stick to one principle-what they think is useful is OK. The advantage of domestic travel over overseas travel is that if overseas travel goes overseas and there is no overseas data service, it is really impossible to download overseas city maps. Little friends who take their children to travel freely, remember to download the tourist city map before going out.

6. News application

Travel and watch the news? Is it good enough to watch the news without watching the drama? Are you here to play? No, it's not. It's not funny. Many times when you travel, you basically just look at the weather where you want to go, and you don't pay attention to local traffic control measures or where to build roads. In fact, when you get to the local area, you can browse the hotels you are going to stay in and see if there is any relevant news near the scenic spots. For example, when I went to Shanghai Disneyland, I didn't know that there was a road near my hotel. Fortunately, there is a map, which saves me some mistakes. Now many news apps can automatically switch to local channels.
