These simple travel tips and tricks will prove to be very important for your journey and you will be able to have a comfortable journey.

If you are thinking of going anywhere, then you can get some good information from my post.

By the way, all these tips, and information are my own personal views, so let's know about simple travel tips.

1. Know About The Place To Visit

Let's begin this travel tip by searching for your favorite place. This is very important because by the destination you can make further strategies for the journey.

First of all, regarding the place you want to visit you should do good research about the place. You can search on Google for your favorite place.

Now the question may be coming into your mind that brother, we are going to roam, so do not worry about doing research on it. It will take 10-15 minutes for you to get information about that place.

Nowadays, most travelers do search on the internet for places, distances, routes, weather, hotels, etc.

This is the easiest way to collect place information as I did last year on my Jaipur trip.

You should make a list of which places are famous for visiting and select the place that is convenient for you.

The place that you choose should be nearby to the railway, bus stand or airport, it will save a lot of time.

2. How to Reach

Now the thing is, how to reach where you want to go, then friends, you should inquire which train or bus goes to that place. Let me share you my personal experience.

Last year I went to Jaipur with my family. Even though I traveled to many cities but Jaipur was my first time. Actually, we had to visit Ajmer dargah.

So, I was very concerned about it that where to start. I Googled 'Travel tips for beginners' and read through many travel blogs and websites. Literally, these travel blogs helped me a lot.

I got to know Delhi to Ajmer fare by train and road. Besides, Which is cheap and best hotel in Ajmer near Dargah?

We went to Ajmer by train and it took almost 6 hours. We reached in the night and checked in the hotel beacuse I booked the hotel in advance so we have not got any issue. It was not far from railway station.

So, book your seat by making a advance reservation so that you do not face any problems in the journey nor do you feel any tiredness.

You should reach 30-45 mins before the departure if you are traveling by bus or train.

Traveling at night will give you maximum comfort. You can sleep comfortably on the train or bus.

One more important thing, make sure you have reserved a ticket for both arrival and departure that will make you tension-free.

3. Where to Stay

It is recommended that you book a hotel before you arrive at your destination because if you do not, you may encounter problems. If you arrive late at night, you will need to find a hotel right away because you will be tired and need to rest. You are not required to travel with your luggage. Make sure your lodging is close to the railway station or bus stop.

Is it a reliable hotel? Another advantage of prebooking or online hotel booking is that you can easily check the hotel's reliability through reviews and ratings. You can also inquire about hotel services such as room availability (single or double bed), breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and check-in and check-out times.

You can book a hotel/lodge or 3-start and 5-star hotel as per your budget.

BUT, on arrival you will not have much option to check the reliability of the hotel becasue you will not have much time for it spcially in night.

You can ask some local people or auo driver for a hotel or lodge, they will also guide you. Make sure it should be nearest to the railway platform or airport.

Pro travel tips - you should book the hotel in advance itself so that as soon as you reach the destination, you can immediately rest in the hotel room.

4. How to Pack Bag

As the travel date gets closer, you should pack your bag. It's your choice what items you have to put. But I would suggest do not carry more luggage.

Traveling with more luggage will give uncomfortable. You should carry some important documents like your Aadhar card, atm, arrival/departure tickets, hotel booking receipt, a pen, a plain paper.

Also keep some cash, because you do not have to find an atm immediately.

Now take care to keep your clothes, never wear formal clothes on the journey because formal clothes get dirty quickly.

You can wear jeans, good track pants, and t-shirts and if the weather is cold then carry some warm clothes.

Packing a bag for traveling is an art. It is very important to give some tips for packing bags, you should read these travel guides carefully.

Do keep one or two towels. Make sure to keep a sheet of newspaper as well.

Suppose you have to sit at the station then you can sit (by the way, you can use newspaper and a big foil to sit at the station) and if you have booked a seat in a sleeper coach then this sheet will also work for you.

You should wear sports shoes and keep good quality slippers, a good matchbox, and a flashlight glass.

It would be better if you write your name, address, and mobile number on your bag, and briefcase. The first aid box should also be taken.

Now you must keep accessories like oil, soap, comb, cream, facewash, sun skin cream, etc.

5. Preparation for Your Baby

If you have a small child with you, then you have to be a little more alert.

It's really tough if you travel with a baby. You have to take care of your baby all the time during travel. Some challenges you might face while traveling with a baby like baby feeding, and changing diapers if the baby is wet. Besides, baby clothing requires a separate bag for the baby.

Make a small bag for your child, and put baby diapers and something to eat that your child likes. Also keep chips, toffee, a baby milk bottle, and dry milk powder and sugar, if your child drinks juice then it is even better.

You can also keep two good brand juices with you. Keep baby's light-colored clothes according to the season.

Carry or purchase Simple, Lightweight, foldable baby strollers & prams so that you can not much worry about your baby. You can move easily with a baby stroller. It keeps the baby safe from harm. Your baby can sit or lie comfortably throughout the trip.

So, if you are traveling with a baby, take care of all these things. Make sure you are giving the highest comfort to your baby.

6. Stay Connect

We cannot ignore the importance of mobile in our 07 Simple Travel Tips, because, with the help of mobile, we can take information about the train, see the map of any place, you can get information about any place, and book a hotel room immediately.

You can stay connected with your friends and family members while traveling.

So mobile is very important on the trip. Make sure the phone is fully charged and if possible keep the power bank.

It will be really helpful if you are connected with your friends or family. On abroad, our friends or family members get to know whether you are roaming safely or not. Nowadays, many incidents happen in our surroundings. Many times we hear that someone's luggage is missed or lost while traveling. Money and some important documents got stolen.

Our family members and our fellow do worry about it and how will you manage now.

Though, we know that mobile phone is unforgettable things in today's life for most people. WHY not? It gives a lot of options to save the contact numbers of your family members as well as trustable friends and other important documents like pictures of your passport, ID proof, hotel addresses, and contact numbers.

These are the most important detail that everyone has to prepare while on trips. But if you lost the phone on a trip then what you will do?

You will be helpless unless you have the contact detail of anyone who is trusted.

You should note down important things in your diary or on some paper like the address of the hotel, and phone numbers in case you have lost your phone.

Also, some very important contact detail of your friends and family members which you can inform them immediately in an emergency situation.

7. Eatables Items | Foodstuff

What food items you should carry during trips? THINK about IT. You will say, anything we like. It's okay if you are traveling alone but suppose you are traveling with your family and you have also kids. So, it's a big challenge to put food items as per choice. Then, You will have extra bags for it.

First of all, keep a meal that you can use during your journey and then make things that do not deteriorate quickly like Mathri and gram flour Laddu can also be taken.

You can also carry some hard fruits like apples, pears, and dry bakery products - bread, cookies, cakes, and long-lasting food - roasted almonds, and cashews. Dry snacks, Instant soup packets are also recommended.

Other important suggestions

Do not carry large bags. It is challenging to carry big bags, and there is a problem keeping them.

You should prepare two small bags instead of one big bag.

Do not make haste on the train platform. Let the train stop first. Get on the train comfortably. Do not get off the moving bus.
