How not to fall into the trap of a novice tourist?
As everyone knows, tourism is another form of business. A highly developed form of business, I must say. Here, as in any other area, there are tricks and traps set up everywhere for an inexperienced tourist.
For example, at the entrance to any country we are repeatedly told: “We must definitely go there!” Or “Without going there, you will not enjoy the trip!”
All this is done in order to force the poor tourist to fork out. In addition, he will have to endure huge queues before he gets to the place where advertising of travel agencies imposed on him. Below are some recommendations and secrets of experienced travelers.
A tourist who came to China constantly hears that you need to go and see the Great Wall. The largest flow of buses with tourists can be traced from the capital of China to Badaling. In this place, everything is imprisoned in order to make the tourist money as much as possible. Here and the sea of unnecessary gizmos will be offered at every step by local residents, and even the ticket here costs decent money. An excellent way out is to go to the Wall review to another place, cheaper. Great examples of such places are the areas of Jin-shan-ling and Shimatai.
Another center of world tourism is Venice. Oddly enough, but Venice is one of the five most visited cities in the world. Few can refrain from coming here to ride a gondola and visit world-famous palaces, cathedrals and other architectural monuments. In order not to spend fabulous money on all this and not to stand in long lines, there is one secret. And it consists in the fact that you need to go to Venice in off-season, for example, in autumn, and not in hot summers. It is in the off-season months that a real view of northern Italy opens up, devoid of an endless crowd.
Arriving in Munich, a tourist will immediately be advised to go to Rastkeller. Rastkeller is a German cellar restaurant known throughout the world. It is here that you can feel the atmosphere of a real beer Germany with its magnificent sausages! And all this is in the very heart of Munich. However, for excellent German beer and the world’s best sausages, you can go to other places that are less hyped by advertising, where guests do not tear the triple price for just a brand and for the fact that the cellar restaurant is located on Marienplatz.
Tourists arriving in the United States, in New York, are invited to take part in a guided tour of New York harbor. This is a great chance to learn a lot about the city and look at the great Statue of Liberty. By default, the excursion takes place on ordinary ships. However, the trip can be diversified by ordering an excursion on an old sailing ship. Tickets will cost a little more, but you can save some money if you order online.
The Tower of London is another item of travelers’ dreams. Crowds of people crawl here every year to see this landmark in the UK. Great advice – do not attend historical reconstructions, but go to a real ancient ceremony. They have been spent for more than seven centuries. The key ceremony is the best option of all the ceremonies held. To get here, you just need to send an application via the Internet and wait a couple of months for an answer. This will save a lot of money.
