Spice Up Your Next Travel Vacation With These 5 Fun Ideas

  • November 10, 2021
  • Jules

Traveling can do wonders for your mind and body. Regardless of the destination, traveling makes you happier, allows you to disconnect and recharge, and exposes you to new experiences. Traveling also serves as an avenue to meet new people and create lasting friendships.

Traveling can be a lot of fun, but doing the same things repeatedly can make the experience less exciting and very predictable. For example, having the same itinerary (stay at a hotel, dine at nearby restaurants, and pay for tours) can make your trips mundane.

Make your next trip one for the books by trying out these fun ideas:

  • Try New Accommodations

Where you’re going to stay can affect your entire trip. It’ll be challenging for you to enjoy touring if you stay in a hotel with uncomfortable beds or if you’re worried about the security of your valuables.

Spice up your next travel vacation by staying in new accommodation. Try something new and book in a newly opened or renovated hotel instead of staying in your favorite chain of hotels or well-advertised five-star accommodations. New accommodations offer discounts and additional perks to travelers, meaning you can enjoy more amenities without spending more money. You can also consider booking a vacation package. Let the travel agency look for your accommodations and plan all your fun activities. You can also save time and money by booking your accommodation and transportation individually.

For example, if you’re going to travel to Ontario, consider booking at The Drake Hotel in Toronto or other newer accommodations. Traveling is all about taking risks, so go ahead and book your stay in the newest hotel you can find!

  • Prepare Outfits That You Don’t Usually Wear

Aside from preparing an itinerary, paying for your tickets, and booking your accommodation before traveling, make sure to plan out which outfits to bring. Trying out new outfits is a great way to make your next vacation trip fun and memorable.

If you often wear a plain shirt and a pair of jeans to work, use your trip as an opportunity to wear colorful sunny dresses, floral printed rompers, and fashionable hats. You can also visit destinations wearing local clothes and pretend you’re actually a local.

Being fashion-forward when you travel won’t only make your photos look better—it can also boost your confidence. And who knows, experimenting with your fashion choices when traveling might inspire you to adapt to a new fashion trend when you get home.

  • Try A New Cuisine

Eating at a fast-food chain that’s available in your hometown shouldn’t become a habit when traveling. How can you make your trip memorable if you’re eating from the same menu over and over again? What stories will you tell your friends and family if you spent your entire vacation eating the same fast food?

Another way to spice up your next travel vacation is to try a new cuisine, preferably one that’s only available in your destination. For example, if you’re traveling to Japan, look for the best restaurants that serve sushi and sashimi. When traveling to Canada, try out poutine, butter tarts, and peameal bacon.

Satisfying your taste buds by trying out new cuisine will surely make your trip more interesting. Plus, this will allow you to know more about the history and traditions of your destination.

  • Ask Around About Happy Hours

Traveling to another destination can be tiring, especially if you have to sit on the plane, train, or bus for hours. If you want to de-stress the moment you arrive at your destination, visit local restaurants and ask about their happy hour.

A happy hour is a time when bars, restaurants, and other food establishments provide discounts on alcoholic drinks and beverages. How long and often a happy hour lasts varies in different bars, which is why it’s important to ask around.

When you take advantage of happy hours, you can sip some of your favorite cocktails as you enjoy some of the best views your destination has to offer. This is one of the best ways to de-stress after long hours of traveling!

  • Explore The Wild

Visiting themed parks and breathtaking architectures are common attractions found in many destinations worldwide. The popularity of these spots is one of the reasons why they’re often filled with countless locals and tourists.

If you want to spend your next vacation trip away from huge crowds, consider exploring the wild. This means sleeping in the forest or other areas in nature and trying out different outdoor activities, such as trekking and hiking.

Spending time in nature allows you to bask in the natural wonders of your destination and enjoy unique views. This experience also helps you clear your mind, reduce stress, and reconnect with yourself. Hiking or trekking with friends also creates lasting memories and stronger bonds.

Make Your Next Trip The Best One Yet

As you can see, you don’t need to spend a lot of money or have years of experience in traveling to make your next vacation exciting. You’ll have one of the best trips in your life when you follow some or all of the tips presented in this article!
