What preparations should I make before going abroad?

1) Please be sure to bring your passport, ID card, air ticket and personal travel articles to the designated place on time.

2) Clothing preparation depends on the change of seasons. The average temperature in Europe is 0-5 degrees Celsius in winter and 20-26 degrees Celsius in summer, which is usually 8- 10 degrees Celsius lower than that in daytime. Tourists' travel clothes should be mainly loose and comfortable. There are no special requirements for other occasions except business class and entering European casinos. Due to environmental awareness, European hotels often don't have disposable items such as toothbrushes, toothpaste and slippers.

3) At present, RMB cannot be used in Europe, and Hong Kong dollars are rarely exchanged. Therefore, you must bring euros when you go to Europe, and prepare as many euros with small denominations as possible, such as 1 yuan, 5 yuan, 10 yuan, 20 yuan, etc. For convenience. According to the relevant regulations of China's foreign exchange management, citizens are allowed to take 5000 dollars and 3000 euros of foreign exchange out of the country without a foreign exchange carrying permit. If China Customs finds that foreign exchange is taken out of the country without a license, it will be punished according to relevant regulations. In Europe, you may have to pay a handling fee of 5%- 10% to exchange US dollars for local currency. Please consult a tour guide to help you change foreign exchange.

4) Because drugs must be purchased with a doctor's prescription in European pharmacies, and the medical expenses are expensive, it is necessary to bring common drugs in case of emergency.

5) Other things to bring: umbrella, camera, film (it is three to four times more expensive in Europe, so bring more), battery, sunglasses, suitable skin care products, four one-inch certificates, and passport copies (in case of loss, it is convenient to reissue the certificates).

6) It is recommended that you use a suitcase with wheels, so that you can check it by plane and carry it with you.

7) telephoto cameras and cameras must be declared when they go through customs to avoid being taxed when they go through customs on the way back.

(2), travel, safety first:

1) Group activities are the safest way to travel. Please avoid leaving the team and acting alone during the tour. At each stop, you should write down the hotel address, telephone number, room number of the tour leader, tourist license plate number, driver contact number, etc. In case you get lost, you must remember the time and place of the assembly, even if you are only out of the group for a few minutes, you should say hello to the team leader and team members.

2) Take care of your travel documents and personal belongings. Never put valuables in checked baggage when flying, and don't check your camera, camera and camera battery. After receiving the checked baggage, you must remove the old stripes on it to prevent misunderstanding during the next consignment, which will lead to your luggage being transported to the wrong place.

3) Europe is full of thieves, and robberies also happen from time to time. Therefore, valuables such as passports, air tickets, cash, cameras, jewelry, watches, etc. must be carried with you, and the satchel should be slung sideways to prevent criminals from robbing from behind by motorcycle. The places most prone to theft or robbery include Paris, Milan, Rome, hotels, restaurants and lobbies, which are frequented by pickpockets. If they are lost in hotels or long-distance buses,

4) Running a red light is rare in Europe, so please cross the road carefully.

5) Strictly abide by the laws of various countries, and it is strictly forbidden to bring prohibited items and illegal items for profit, and pay special attention not to help unfamiliar people carry items through the customs, otherwise they will bear the consequences.

(3), accommodation and travel considerations

1) team breakfast is usually enjoyed in the hotel's western restaurant, which is a sumptuous western-style buffet specially arranged for guests. Breakfast in France, Italy and Switzerland is relatively simple, usually only bread, coffee, tea and juice. Please understand that when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Lunch and dinner are usually Chinese food, and the standard is five dishes and one soup, with tea before meals and fruit after meals. If there is no Chinese restaurant to order food during the trip, western-style dinner will be arranged occasionally. Special requirements of personal eating habits can be put forward to the tour guide at any time, and the tour guide will try his best to help you.

2) The tap water in Europe meets the drinking standard, so the hotel does not provide boiled water or equipment for boiling water. If you need boiled water or tea, please bring your own cup. China restaurant provides boiled water.

3) In the standard double rooms of some European hotels, one or two beds of different sizes will be set for the convenience of family tourists with children. This should be coordinated by group members living in the same room. When taking a bath in the hotel bathroom, pay attention to draw the shower curtain and close the door to avoid flooding the carpet. There is no floor drain in the bathroom of European hotels. The hotel will charge 300 euros for compensation if the carpet is wetted by water spilled outside the bathtub. There are usually closed-circuit TV programs in hotels, and a time fee will be charged. Drinks and snacks in mini-refrigerators do not come from free goods, and telecom service fees in European hotels are higher. If you need international communication, you can buy a phone card, use a magnetic card phone or a coin-operated phone, and you can buy it in small shops, cigarette shops and newsstands. Please ask the tour guide specifically. When you check out, be sure to check whether you have forgotten anything and return the room key to the service desk. In a hotel, if you want the bellman to help you with your luggage, you usually have to pay a tip of 1-2 euros.

4) The main means of transportation in Europe is the tourist bus, with luggage on the lower floor and seats on the upper floor. There are two doors on the bus, and the driver can arrange a rest every two hours or so, and he can go to the bathroom or the supermarket. Always use a car all the time, so be sure to keep the car clean. Smoking is forbidden in the carriage at any time, and ice cream and food with skin are not allowed. The work and rest of European drivers are guaranteed by law, requiring drivers to have 9 hours a day.
