(26) Book As Much As Possible before the Trip

There are many things that can be researched and booked before traveling. These include:

Hotel/Apartment

Tours

Museum Entry Fees

Transportation

As mentioned earlier, some attractions can be filled up prior to your arrival. You don’t want to waste a day traveling somewhere and discover you can’t enter. A perfect example of this is Disney World in Florida, USA. I have been there when they hit maximum capacity. At that point, they won’t admit additional people.

Another example from Florida is when they were opening Legoland. They had a website with prices and pictures and videos of people on the rides. We drove to the park and discovered they weren’t opening the park for eight more months. We took the kids to the park and experienced frustration. After reviewing the website, we noticed a small text commenting that the park would open in the fall. By calling ahead, we might have avoided this issue.

In Barcelona, the line for getting into the Sacred Family Cathedral was several hours. We purchased our tickets a week prior and walked right in. There is an exception to this rule. Sometimes you can find discounts at the hotel or hostel where you are staying. These discount books can pay for themselves.
