Tour on a Sightseeing Bus

Taking a sightseeing tour can be a great investment, as well as a wonderful travel memory and an unforgettable experience. Every place is different, so this article should help you get the most out of a sightseeing bus tour.

Steps

  1. Check out all the hottest restaurants. Find out where to go and if it's worth the visit by reading reviews online or checking out newspaper critiques in the Dining section.
  2. Bring an umbrella and jacket in case it rains. You won't want your clothes to get soaked on an outdoor excursion.
  3. Purchase interesting souvenirs. You can find all kinds and varieties from shops and kiosks around the world, many of them unique collectibles.
  4. Put your camera to good use. Take lots of photos, develop an album when you get home and share it with friends and family!
  5. Check out the landmarks. Go exploring or invest in a tour.
  6. Visit the biggest tourist attractions. See a museum, aquarium, botanical gardens, etc.
  7. Watch the weather the night before, so you know what to wear. You don't want to be stuck with a pair of shorts and a T-shirt if the weather suddenly dips close to freezing.
  8. Bring enough money for shopping, as well as various other expenses. Bring more than you think you will need just in case.
  9. Buy your friends and family gifts to show that you were thinking of them on your vacation. This is a kind gesture.

Tips

  • Send friends and family some postcards or photos of the tour.
  • Get enough sleep the night before the tour.
  • Have your cell phone on you, in case something goes wrong.
  • Bring a book, magazine, MP3 Player, or an iPod, so you have something to do, while you are on the road, traveling there.
  • If your Hotel has a swimming pool or a gym, you could attend it if you want.

Warnings

  • Do not be late, or you could miss the tour bus. They could leave without you, and that isn't fun.
  • If you are going with a tour group stay with the people, don't wander away and get lost.
