- Purchase interesting souvenirs. You can find all kinds and varieties from shops and kiosks around the world, many of them unique collectibles.
- Put your camera to good use. Take lots of photos, develop an album when you get home and share it with friends and family!
- Check out the landmarks. Go exploring or invest in a tour.
- Visit the biggest tourist attractions. See a museum, aquarium, botanical gardens, etc.
