If yes, then simply scroll down and read these amazing travel tips that will come in very handy for your coming travel trip.
Preplan your travel:
It is essential that you make all the required arrangements before you set out to travel in order to make a comfortable and smooth journey. So, buy the traveling tickets well before you embark on your journey. If you have made the reservations on a prior basis, it is always better to check before you begin to travel so that there are no hassles faced.
Make other travel concomitant arrangements on time:
It is important that you make the arrangements for transport, that is, taxis or cabs on a prior basis so that you do not have to wait unnecessarily when you reach your travel destination. In fact, you should also book your accommodation previously so that you are saved of running around in an unknown territory looking for places to find a shelter at. Your travel agent can help you out in both these areas very easily as travel agents have contacts with all good accommodation keepers and transportation companies in various travel destinations.
Take care of your cash properly
When you travel, you tend to carry a lot of cash so that you can enjoy to the best possible exploiting the unique features and facilities of the concerned holiday place to the maximum and to buy the famous items. But carrying too much of cash is not really safe these days. In order to keep your money safe, it is better that you always carry a credit or debit card instead of heavy cash. As credit/debit cards are accepted almost everywhere they make purchases a very easy and convenient process. Moreover, they are very safe to carry as well.
Make lists of all the things you carry
It is very common for little things to get misplaced when you are traveling as the fun and frolic leaves you with less time to take care of each object you carry with yourself. So, to ensure that every piece of your belonging comes back home with you, it is a good idea to make a list of the things you carry with yourself. When you are packing to come back home, quickly recheck as per your list that all the items are there and none of them has been lost during the travel and holidaying.
These are some of the main travel tips that can help you have an enjoyable journey. Some other things that you can keep in mind are:
- Place a nametag over your belongings and suitcases so that they can be easily recognized.
- Keep extra packets of tissue napkins and medicines for several common ailments like cough, cold and headache along with antiseptics and band-aids for minor cuts and bruises.
So, avail these travel tips and have a happy journey.

I could tell you a few things about Hurghada. I want to go back…
I expect that you live in the USA.
Maybe you already know this, but, I suggest you bring things, not so much for yourself, as for your relatives. American made things are highly appreciated. Goods such as chocolate, bars of soap, and even toothpaste will make them very happy. Buy bulk items in individual portions as much as possible because your gifts will be shared by many. <– end of my own two cents.
Did you say rural?? You will certainly miss hot water and bathroom tissue. Bring many shorts and few skirts. Expect that your clothes will be hand washed and hung to dry, by you or someone else.
EXTRA CREDIT: If you can unlock your GSM cell phone, you will want to buy a local SIM card there for text messaging.
lim going there tomrow
The diving is still relly good in Red Sea I think and there is still a big part of the country that is more or less untouched.
Yay! You'll have fun! I miss it there. Even though I live in Sunny california now, I think that the great attitude of people in Chicago make up for the lack of warm weather anyday. First, take the 94 all the way there. From Detroit without traffic and without speeding you'll have a 5 hour trip. From Kalamazoo, maybe two and a half hours…max. Make sure to fill up on gas in, or before Kalamazoo…..there's not alot of choices for an hour or so. Take about five dollars in cash to pay for the toll roads. Also make sure you bring a warm jacket and comfy shoes to walk around in.
Some places I enjoyed when I used to live there six months ago were…. Giordanos Pizza (A little touristy, but the pizza is amazing, and very filling! about 12-14 bucks for a medium will fill up four people…… trust me) Of course again Michigan Avenue has all the upscale shops like we would'nt get back home in Michigan.
Division st. for the college age bars. Rush street, for fun little shops and nice resturants. Nooky's in Old town area was an amazing little place for brakefast. North beach was a nice spot whn the weather was warmer. The Merchandise Mart was an interesting building. It is mainly a place that you can see designer showrooms for kitchens, and bathrooms…..stuff like the Kohler showrooms.
Get a day, or week metro pass at any Jewel grocery store or under the subways. The pass works for both subways and busses. Please note that at 8am and 5pm you may have to wait for a bus longer….Sometimes two or three busses would pass me by before one stopped. At these busy times of the day, there is a good chance you will be standing on the bus.
Please be a little more cautious when you are on the red line subway. I've never had a problem ever, but sometimes it gave me the heebie jeebies! haha Have fun!!!!!!!
Use bottled water. The water in Italy and Greece is safe to drink but always play it safe.
Diet Coke is called Coke Light in Europe.
Italians like to drink Pepsi but it tastes different that in the USA.
When in Greece, see all the museums but reserve some time for clubbing at night.
Do not have sex with anyone unless you plan on bringing home some VD's.
Don't get drunk. Europeans admire folks who are reserved when it comes to drinking.

I love to just cruise the country with no set destination. It's what I did for many years on my Harley. Other than the safety concerns, make sure you take in everything possible, eat at local eateries and get to know the people. It's much better to see the real country if you take the old highways, back roads and scenic routes. Never get in a hurry. the more you see, taste and hear, the more you will enjoy the trip, and the more memories you'll have to enjoy. This country is an amazing place.
Unless you have a car, you have either the bus or a boat from Positano since the train doesn't go there. Timetables for the buses and ferries are here: http://www.amalficoastweb.com/positano/english/bus_ferries.html
From Sorrento, you can take the Circumvesuviana train to Pompeii or Naples. There are links here that you might find useful. http://www.sorrento-online.com/english/orari.htm
From Naples you could connect to anywhere else in Italy via the train system here. The English version of the website is here: http://www.ferroviedellostato.it/cms/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=3fdbe14114bc9110VgnVCM10000080a3e90aRCRD
Babies are easier to travel with than toddlers…I went from the U.K. to Australia with our 2 month old and it was fine…she was totally unaware!
As long as she has her basic needs met there's no need to worry…just take rest stops when you need to change the baby.
I traveled from florida to california when my baby girl was 8 months…
they are at the age where they sleep soo much… what we did is we left super early i mean we left our house at 2am… we didnt let her sleep for a while so she was so tired… she woke up to eat so we stop… we made stops every so ofter to check on diapers… toys are really pointless because they drop them and hell breaks lose when that happens.. if she has a pacifier make sure you have more than one incase she loses one… keep the snacks simple… stuff that she cant choke… and really she will sleep most of the time because car rides are sooooooo relaxing for babies… she will probably only wake to eat and fuss a bit for a diaper check… good luck with the drive…
oh and when we drove… we drove non stop… i mean my husband and i just took turns and we drove… if you are driving 12 hours in 2 days you should not worry to much.. make sure you check her diaper often… and put diaper cream to prevent rashes…

Head to nearby Cerro Aconcagua, it is the highest mountain in the Americas.
ya rab! ta3miya wa falafil…yum yum!
Resorts at Hurghada kick ass, sadly the diving isn´t that great anymore
Be prepared to remove your shoes upon entering a house. To keep apartments clean, most hosts will provide you with a pair of slippers.
Be ready to give toasts at dinner, for guests are often asked to do so.
Offer to share your snacks and cigarettes with those around you.
Be prepared to accept all food and drinks offered to you when visiting friends. Ukrainians are known for their generosity when it comes to feeding others. Turning down food may be considered rude.
Do not put your thumb between your first two fingers – this is a very rude gesture.

Enjoy your stay!
