Outbound travel planning strategy How to make plans for traveling abroad

Nowadays, more and more friends are not limited to domestic travel, but more and more want to travel independently. But since you are all prepared, the editor will tell you something about outbound travel. Planning, you can take a good look at it when you go there. Determining the destination

This is extremely important. Why? I was originally excited to go to Japan to see the cherry blossoms, but after arriving there, I discovered that the cherry blossoms bloom in March. Therefore, it is important to confirm the travel destination! Plan the trip

After selecting the travel destination, you must first start planning the trip and determine the city itinerary.

Note here: When many people go online to learn about the main attractions and history of the destination city, a large amount of information often comes to them. There are introductions from the local tourism bureau’s official website and many backpackers’ experience sharing, which are very helpful for everyone to plan routes reasonably, but how can we get the information we need in a targeted manner?

If If you are still a newbie in self-guided travel, you can try searching on some specialized travel websites or travel forums. Actively asking questions and posting posts is always the right choice. After all, the road lies at the doorstep.

If you are faced with a lot of information and are at a loss, you can also try Qionyou.com. On this website, you can easily simulate DIY outbound travel, including destination information, travel strategies, how to apply for a visa, and how to Booking hotels and transportation, preparing before departure, such as currency exchange, etc., all very small things are planned step by step according to the process. I have little DIY experience and will follow this plan for the first time. Once you try it once, you will have your own feelings. When you travel again, you can choose travel services from various websites in a more targeted manner.

There are also Letu Outbound Travel, Sohu Travel Outbound Travel, Sina Overseas Travel Channel, etc., which are all good Chinese travel websites. When you don’t know how to plan your itinerary, you can click on the destination link to read comments from netizens, such as Lotto, and the rankings of various attractions for reference. After all, traveling thousands of miles is worse than reading thousands of books.

I also recommend a travel website to everyone, which is Backpacker Inn. There is a forum community dedicated to solving various travel questions for travel friends, and an online travel guide encyclopedia written by travel friend ***, which includes very detailed information. Travel destination information. In addition, the backpacker inn also has a personal blog for backpackers, where many very professional travel friends exchange their feelings and experiences.

If your English is passable, then the following English websites are also good. eg (for example): world66, tripadvisor and Yahoo Travel Channel can all provide professional travel guidance; the photo gallery of world66 provides many photos taken by travel friends, which are vivid and interesting. If you are hesitant about where to go, then Take a look at these photos and decide where to go!

In addition to classifying destinations, some travel websites will also considerately classify them according to different travel methods and features, such as: Adventure Travel, Cruise

Travel, Family Travel, Beach Vacation, Business Travel, Self-driving Road

Trips, etc., you can choose to book online according to your own interests and wishes

After the itinerary is confirmed, the third step is to determine the travel time. It is necessary to arrange all the items that can be booked in advance, such as air tickets, hotels, car rentals, etc.

Air tickets: Before booking air tickets in China, it is best to go to the "Qunar" website first, where you can directly enter the names of more than 1,500 cities around the world to search. "Qunar" also has a real-time air ticket comparison function, telling you the most cost-effective options and combinations, and directly going to the air ticket booking website with the lowest fare. However, since the fares on the website are not necessarily real-time, it is recommended to check the official website of the corresponding airline after choosing a few suitable combinations. Sometimes the fares on the official website are cheaper. After all, there are many benefits to hearing from hearsay (and you will learn from listening)!

To book air tickets, you can go to expedia.com. This website can book air tickets between foreign travel destinations. If you want to further reduce costs, you can go online and check out the air tickets of various low-cost airlines, such as AirAsia, Tiger

Airways, VirginBlue, Jet

Star, etc. These companies can really It's said to be a cabbage price. For example, AirAsia's one-way ticket from Tianjin and Hangzhou to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, only costs five or six hundred yuan including tax. You guys, if you don't buy it, you won't buy it. Oh no, after all, the good news will not go to outsiders!

If you encounter a discount on a return ticket, you may even get it for 200! Of course, the flight times of low-cost airlines are often not very good, and many times they fly like a "night owl" without sleeping, haha ??~ and you don't want the on-board service. I have high hopes, but cheapness is king! This is still an important factor attracting many backpackers. Because the round-trip air ticket can save a few days of accommodation money.

What should be noted here is that most of these low-cost airlines only sell tickets online.

You only need to have one or two internationally accepted credit cards or debit cards issued by domestic banks. In fact, many people have them, the ones with the logos of international payment card organizations such as Visa and MasterCard on them. Remember, even if it is a debit card with the Visa or MasterCard logo, you have to call the card-issuing bank in China in advance to ask them to activate the overseas payment function. The UnionPay cards that we commonly use are still "incompetent" in many places abroad, so it is very important to bring one or two internationally accepted cards when traveling.
