Getting Around
- A Trip Advisor company, Viator is a great way to find day trips and excursions for your trip. You can either plan ahead or book on the day and find local day trips.

Travel Insurance
- Read: Why You NEED Travel Insurance For Your Next Trip.
- The most important thing you need to pack on your next vacation is your travel insurance! Book travel insurance the minute you book your trip to cover you in the event you can’t travel or something happens during your trip.
- We have personally used World Nomads for our insurance for the last few years and could not be more happy with their service and offering. Book your cover with World Nomads
- Another great option is Safety Wing, the world’s first International Travel Medical Insurance developed to meet the needs of entrepreneurs and remote workers travelling or living abroad. Coverage starts at US $37 for four weeks and since it is subscription based you won’t forget it when you travel!
- If you are carrying lots of photography equipment we highly recommend getting a separate insurance for your electronic and photo gear. We have been using Photoguard for a few years and love that you can build your insurance based on the value of your exact set of equipment, but suggest checking specific insurance coverage for your region.
