My dream is travelling to Copenhagen with my wife and daughter. It is my real dream.  It is colourful and calming. 💕💕

Lightness is the key ... Light in packing ... Light in expectations ... Light in plans ... Go with the flow and soak in the environment and atmosphere ... You will come back rested and de-stressed but still overloaded with more memories and sensations than you could throw a great big stick at !?!

Download an offline map to your phone in case you get lost and there is no signal.

[EdTilsle_633153]

Set this kids' alarms  a half hour earlier than agreed with them the night before; those extra 30 mins make all the difference getting to the airport on time  ! !

It's warmer everywhere nowadays. 

Pack a smaller USB/Battery powered fan to keep cool.

Also freeze a small bit of water in the bottom of a plastic bottle, the when you're good to go out....top up the rest with water. This will be much cooler for sipping as you work or play!

Try everything, It’ll create the time of your life, if things go wrong it’s for the lore if things go well you’ll enjoy life.

[IvanChy_2099038]

The best hack for traveling is to share this journey with a loved one.

[OliverJ_1540903]

Don't THINK just Do ✌️

[CadeTodd_621690]

Where possible and affordable always book all inclusive because if the worst should happen at least you know you'll be fed and watered 😉 

[Gu457]

Try everything, you won’t regret what u do but if you do it’s for the lore

Fill an old roll on deodorant bottle with suncream for reapplying on the go. 

Easy application, gives great coverage to protect your skin and a bit of reusing/recycling to make the planet happier too!

[CarolLo_1990443]

Pack your case or bag then take one of each item out - I always wear the same things over and over again on hols!

[LornaLa_2681340]

Make sure you have data add on if not in Uk so you can use google  mapsthe best way to get around !!!!

Stay Connected: Keep friends and family informed about your whereabouts for safety.

[William_1326630]

Pack less than you think you need. We ALWAYS take too much!

[CarolLo_1990443]

Pack your case /bag and then take one of each item out - I still never wear all the stuff I take! 

[Ellisia_2732905]

Combine multiple destinations into one trip by exploring lesser-known nearby spots. For example, if you're heading to a popular beach town, consider taking a day trip to a nearby hidden gem or smaller town. This not only saves you money by avoiding tourist traps but also allows you to experience more authentic local culture and cuisine. Research local favorites and off-the-beaten-path destinations to enhance your travel experience while staying within budget.

Also! We love the ‘get your guide’ app- much cheaper than booking trips in person. 

[CHARLEN_2591287]

Rest 💯 Relax 💯 Recharge 💯

Make Memories 💯

[Stewart_2237226]

Book attractions at the time of booking the holiday or when the time slots open to avoid disappointment

My best hack for a summer get away is to have a good plan and lots of sunscreen 🤙

[CliveSm_1151313]

Email important documents to yourself. Don't just keep copies on your phone as it may be lost or stolen 

[SamuelN_2743632]

My hack for a summer get away is to have a good plan and pack lots of sunscreen 

[GarySch_1743029]

If travelling abroad always take a 4 socket extension lead. Never enough electrical sockets in room also less adapters needed 👍

[Stall_Warning]

Great minds think alike. Have been doing this for years. Especially good on Cruise Ships. There are some Travel Blocks available the advantage of which is that they are much lighter than the standard household version.

[DavidTr_2208586]

Get a new pair of swimmers 🏊‍♀️

Use a small laptop or tablet case to combine all your electrical items in one internal bag. When it comes to security you just have to remove one bag to pass though security, we have been using this for years and speeds the entire process up to a mere minutes

[IanTitmarsh]

Make sure you have a roaming package for your destination and carry a mobile battery charger

[Bernade_1574544]

• Turn off roaming if in a country where data not included in package!

[StevenM_1453640]

For the beach or pool. Attach a cork to your keychain! If you lose your keys this will help keep them afloat.

[AndrewT_1001502]

Hi Everyone,

we have been using this hack for many years…. When packing hand luggage keep all electrical items that will need to be removed for security in a separate bag. We use a small laptop or tablet foam case. This means a simple

internal bag can be removed when it comes to security. Super quick and painless for everyone involved

[Christi_2081977]

Book your flights and holiday in the wee hours of the morning, when flights will be cheaper. Use Sky scanner or join Jacks flight club for massive savings 

[LindaRe_2604340]

Always use YouTube to research resort and hotel choices before you go. That way you can plan out each day in advance, get the real scoop on hotels from previous guests.

[BrendaP_1955947]

Having  Smarty phone plan so no EU roaming charges

[KeelyTat_983079]

When my children were little and still needed a baby bath when there was only a shower in the room I took a tiny paddling pool - fitted in the shower tray and folded up for the journey much smaller than the expensive collapsible baths! 

[ClaireSt_201078]

Pack like a prk and use the currency of your destination you are in to save you money

[GrahamR_1905988]

Get a good protective case for your phone. Add a strap/tether to avoid losing it and making your getaway a misery
