Use Offline Maps
Download offline maps of My Trip and its transit lines before heading out each day so you can navigate even when connectivity is spotty.
Cluster Neighborhoods Daily
Plan each day around 1–3 adjacent neighborhoods rather than jumping around the city.
Start Mornings Early
Aim to leave your stay around 8 AM for popular sights, hikes, and markets, when temperatures are cooler and crowds thinner.
Carry Small Cash
Keep small bills and coins for street food, tips, local buses, and market purchases where cards might not be accepted.
Hydrate Constantly
Bring a reusable water bottle and refill whenever possible, especially on hiking, beach, and adventure days.
Sun Protection Strategy
Wear a hat, sunglasses, and broad-spectrum sunscreen, and reapply every 2–3 hours when outdoors.
Comfortable Footwear
Pack broken-in walking shoes plus light sandals or water shoes for beach and boat days.
Layer Your Clothing
Use breathable layers so you can adapt from cool mornings to hot afternoons and breezier evenings.
Respect Local Dress Norms
Carry a light scarf or cover-up for religious or more conservative sites that require shoulders and knees to be covered.
Book Adventures Early
Reserve scuba, skydiving, and zipline days early in your trip with flexible dates where possible.
Check Weather Daily
Monitor the local forecast each night and morning to adjust beach, hiking, and adventure days as needed.
Use Public Transit Smartly
Obtain a local transit card if available and learn 2–3 key tram or bus lines that connect your main neighborhoods.
Taxi and Rideshare Etiquette
Ask drivers to use the meter where standard, and confirm rough fares before longer rides.
Lunch Specials for Value
Look for cafés advertising daily set lunches, which often include a main and drink at a lower price than à la carte.
Street Food Hygiene
Choose busy stalls with high turnover and food cooked to order rather than items sitting out.
Tipping Norms
Learn local tipping expectations; in many places a small rounding up or 5–10% is appreciated rather than mandatory 20%.
Keep Copies of Documents
Store digital and paper copies of passports, IDs, and insurance separately from originals.
Travel Insurance for Adventures
Ensure your travel insurance covers activities like scuba, climbing, and skydiving.
Rest Days Are Strategic
Use lighter days in parks, markets, or residential areas to recover between intense adventure days.
Photography Golden Hours
Plan key photo stops around early morning and late afternoon for softer light.
Ask Locals for Food Tips
Ask staff at your stay or tour guides for their favorite affordable local restaurants.
Market Bargaining Basics
In markets where haggling is normal, start around 60–70% of the asking price and negotiate with a smile.
Safety on Hikes
Stay on marked trails, carry water and a small snack, and let someone know your route on longer hikes.
Beach and Water Safety
Swim between flags where lifeguards are present and avoid the water after heavy storms or if flags show strong currents.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, never feed them, and follow any posted rules in parks and reserves.
Zipline and Climbing Briefings
Pay close attention to safety instructions at adventure parks and ask questions if anything is unclear.
Seasickness Prep
If you get seasick, take recommended medication before boat and scuba days and sit where motion is least.
Backup Indoor Activities
Have a shortlist of museums, cafés, and markets ready as stand-ins for weather-affected adventure days.
Charging and Adapters
Bring a compact power strip and the correct adapter so you can charge cameras and phones nightly.
Manage Data Usage
Download offline content and only use mobile data for essentials like maps and messaging.
Evening Safety
Stick to well-lit, busy streets at night and use licensed taxis or known rideshare services for longer distances.
Pace Yourself at Markets
Markets can be overwhelming; take periodic breaks at quieter side streets or cafés.
Check Opening Days
Confirm which days key markets, museums, and attractions are closed so you can plan around them.
Bathroom Access
Use restrooms at museums, restaurants, and cafés you visit; carry tissues and hand sanitizer just in case.
Keep Essentials in Daypack
Carry a small daypack with water, sunscreen, a light layer, camera, and basic meds.
End-of-Day Review
Each evening, quickly review the next day’s plan and adjust timings based on how you’re feeling.
