1. Language
Learn some German before your trip. As is known to all, German is the main language spoken in Germany, but when you travel in Germany, you will find that almost all the people can speak English more or less. However, it is still recommended that you can speak some German so that you could make yourself easily understood when communicating with Germans.
You will find it really useful when ordering a meal, asking directions and especially when traveling in some areas which are not popular tourist attractions.
2. Arrange your schedule
Don't rush on your journey. Germany is a country that boasts of its beautiful countryside views and every tourist is not willing to miss such fantastic scenery.
Since tour time is limited, a list of places of interest that you want to visit becomes necessary and helps you to arrange your time. Planning your trip carefully so that you do not have to rush on your trip and also you can visit your favorite sites.
Southern Germany is famous for its castle tours which attract a lot of people who are interested in history every year. Central Germany is an ideal place for those who want to ski or hike their way through the country.
3. Passports and visas
Get your passports and visas ready. If you are not a citizen from European Union members, you should bring a valid passport to enter Germany. For U.S. citizens who want to pay a visit to Germany, a valid passport is required as well and if the stay is going to last more than 90 days, they also have to get a visa.
4. Pack light
Another advice is that you'd better pack light when you travel in Germany and in any other areas in Europe. Make sure your luggage can be put into the carry-on compartment on the plane; otherwise it will not fit in the room offered on trains. What's more, you should always bear in mind that you may live in a hotel that has no elevator and you have to carry some heavy luggage up to your floor.
5. Stay in one town
Don't visit too many places in a short vacation. If you choose Germany as a destination for a short vacation, picking up one city or one town to visit and stay is a smart choice. Thus, you can enjoy the vacation without wearing yourself out traveling long distances in a hurry. Instead, you can get familiar with the local customs and feel embraced in the charming town through your stay. You will feel more relaxing in the vacation and look forward to a second visit.
6. Shopping tips
Shopping in a environment-friendly way. When you do some grocery shopping in Germany, be aware that you need unlock the cart by paying a deposit and after you use it, you can get your deposit back when you return the cart. Moreover, you are expected to bring your own bags to carry the groceries since the bags need to be purchased in Germany. Bringing your own bag is not only a way to save money but also a move to protect the environment in the long run.
7. Public phones
Public phones are rarely seen in Germany so you'd better make your cell phone bill paid before you leave. However, in some public places such as cafes, you may be allowed to make free phone calls and have free access to the Internet. But such places are rare and hard to find.
8. Dining tips
Water in most restaurants in Germany is not free, and don't be surprised when you are asked to pay for it. You are also expected to tip the waiters or waitresses in bars and restaurants in Germany. A good tip in Germany is two or three EUR.

Top 5 Thailand Destinations
Backpackers truly have the world at their feet. With a minimum amount of luggage, enough cash in the bank and a travel insurance policy to cover unforeseen emergencies, life could not be easier.
Almost every country on earth is geared up to accept backpackers with open arms. In fact the whole backpacking industry has been growing steadily for the last 20 years and shows no sign of abating.
In fact, some countries are so geared up could be forgiven for thinking they are being excluded from the local community. Special backpacker accommodation, special backpacker buses, special back packer tours are just some of the elements of this growing industry designed to cater exclusively for predominantly young travellers with a pack on the back.
In Thailand, it is possible to go on a backpacking tour and never talk to a local! Whilst this may suit some people, including some locals, there are still plenty who are looking for an adventure and a taste of the local lifestyle.In this article we will look at the five top backpacker destinations in Thailand to help you plan your trip.
Ko Pha Ngan:-
Although the beach here is legendary there's much more to do than simply lie around on the sand. You can drift from beach to beach if you wish as there are over a dozen to choose from, but with a little more effort it's worthwhile exploring the interior jungle where you will find waterfalls and miles of hiking tracks. You can stay for a few days in luxurious accommodation or go a bit downmarket and stay for a couple of weeks.
Ko Tao:-
This is probably Thailand's top destination for scuba divers. The crystal clear water and the stunning coral reef make this one of the world's most popular places to obtain a scuba licence. It is also extremely cheap and you can have a really awesome holiday here whilst doing a little business on the side.
Sangkhlaburi:-
This fascinating Bordertown is the only place in Thailand where you will see such a diverse ethnic spectrum. Each of the Burmese, Non, Karen, Thai and Lao inhabitants insist on speaking their own language but if English is your native tongue it won't make much of a difference anyway. Although it is bereft of most of the tourist trappings you may become used to in other parts of Thailand, you can relax and watch the fishing boats on the lake and simply relax and immerse yourself into an unusual part of the country.
Khao Sok National Park:-
This unusual National Park is a welcome contrast to the sand and jungle that shrouds most of Thailand. You can walk alone through the thick rain forests and stand in awe of the waterfalls splashing over limestone cliffs. It is simply breathtaking.
Mae Hong Son Province:-
Located in the deep north west of Thailand, the province is mostly mountain and forest. It has been a hidden jewel until the last couple of years as more tourists, prominently backpackers, have become aware of this "off the beaten track" destination. Without saying any more, make you a promise and visit this remote part of Thailand.
Remember to organize your holiday insurance before arriving in Thailand and take the time out to visit at least one of these unusual destinations for the trip of a lifetime.

Vietnam Vacation Destinations Holidays Tips
Vietnam is a country with many faces and a history that reflects a long series of conflicts with its neighbors. After you have organized your travel insurance and sit down to plan your visit to Vietnam, there are plenty of things to consider and plenty of places to visit.
If you are of a historical persuasion, there will be plenty to occupy you as you travel from town to town building up a picture of a long history of conflict that has marked Vietnamese history over the past thousand years.
Alternatively, if you are an everyday tourist who is looking forward to enjoying the sights and sounds and food of an exotic country, then Vietnam will serve it up to you in platters.
Without wanting to crowd your itinerary, let's look at a shortlist of three destinations that offer you a broad cross-section of Vietnam and which capture the essence of the country as a whole.
Halong Bay
This stunningly beautiful bay has a collection of over 3000 islands which seemed to emerge from the water like a flotilla of green emeralds. Now a world Heritage site, Halong Bay is the place to take a boat cruise so you can get closer to the spectacularly beautiful beaches and grottoes that are dotted around in their hundreds.
If you choose the right cruise, you will also have time to explore the magnificent caves which have been illuminated for the benefit of tourists. After that you can relax on one of the many sandy beaches and soak in the atmosphere.
Nha Trang
There are some wonderful contrasts in this indisputably beautiful town.
On the one hand you will witness a bustling, Metropolis driven by commerce, and on the other Western-style resort town with hotels and restaurants strung out along a beautiful beach.
Nha Trang will keep you busy with boat trips and scuba diving both popular pastimes. Add to that the famous mud baths all surrounded by dozens of historic sites and you have the complete tourist package in one place.
Phong Nha Cave
Located in the Ke Bang National Park, these 400 million-year-old caves are the oldest in Asia. To get there in need to take a charter boat which departs early in the morning arriving back late in the afternoon.
After travelling the 55 km you'll be able to marvel at the limestone formations as you wind your way through the kilometres of underground passageways. The main underground cavern is nearly 8 km long and you will be able to choose from 14 other caves to explore in what must be one of the wonders of Vietnam. The caves are often closed during November and December during the rainy season, so make sure you schedule your visit outside of these months.
These three must see destinations are not generally on the itinerary of most tourists. Do yourself a favour and make sure you include at least one of these exciting destinations on your list of must see places. Most important of all, make sure your holiday insurance is arranged well in advance.

About Lake Lanier Parks Holidays
Many Atlanta residence have know idea about the spectacular park system available at Lake Lanier Ga. Most Atlanta residents know there are some places to stop and have picnics around the lake, but few Atlanta residents are aware of just how vast the Lake Lanier Ga.
Park system really is, and just how much they offer in the way of an in-expensive family entertainment value.
Lake Lanier Ga has over fifty parks scattered all around the lake each of which offers varying amenities. There are some parks such as the Upper and Lower Overlook that offers excellent large open grill pits for large family cookouts, along with very clean, well maintained, and shaded picnic areas.
You have parks such as the Lower located on the Chattahoochee river just below the Buford Dam. The Lower Pool Park offers a boat ramp for putting in small boats, kayaks, canoes, and rafts.
The Lower Pool Park also offers some of the most excellent trout fishing available in the state of Georgia. It's not a bit unusual to witness a trout angler pulling in some nice eighteen-inch or larger rainbow trout.
Spots like West Bank Park, offers an excellent and safe beach area great for keeping the little ones active on a hot sunny day. West Bank Park also offers great picnic areas nestled away in some wooded and well shaded areas right on the lake, and also has a sea wall which is a great spot for those anglers hoping to hook one of the big twenty five pound striper bass that Lake Lanier is so famous for.
Many of the parks have restroom facilities that are clean and well maintained, and many have great kids fully equipped kids playgrounds, and even well kept boat ramps for launching your boats. There is a small parking fee required at each individual park, so make sure and find out what is available at the specific park you plan to attend prior to going there.
At the time, the parking fee is four dollars, however, you can purchase an annual pass for thirty dollars, which gives you access to all the day parks that are managed by the Army Corps of Engineer. But be aware, this annual pass only gives you access to the parks managed by the Army Corps of Engineers. There are a handful of parks around Lake Lanier that are not managed by the Corps, but rather by Individual County, State, and City.
These parks don't offer the opportunity of purchasing an annual pass, but the Army Corps manages the majority of the Lake Lanier parks. So take advantage of these parks, they are all clean, safe, and well guarded, making them perfect one-day getaways for nice family outings on weekends. And please remember to clean up after yourself, and always practice by wearing life jackets when in the water.

Luxurious Camping Tips - Things to Bring With You
If you like being outdoors, but aren't really the outdoorsy type this list should help make you feel more comfortable camping. The six items on this list are easy ways to add a bit of luxury to your camping trips.
1 -- Spices! And other nice food. Camping doesn't have to be hot dogs over the fire (though this is fun, too). You can get a cooking stove, bring some nice spices, and some nicer meals along with you for a much nicer experience overall. Food is the easiest way to add a little luxury to your trip.
2 -- A battery powered fan will keep the air circulating in your tent at night, add a little white noise, and make you generally feel more comfortable in your tent. These fans are easy to find and bring with you, and are a great little way to make a big difference to your experience.
3 -- Having some candles around can really make things feel fancier. You get a nice light setting, a nice smell, and they're easy to set up.
4 -- Two room tents are definitely the more luxurious way to go. For one thing, you can stand up in them. You'll feel like you have a lot more room in a comfortable, indoor space. You can fit a larger sleeping area and have an area to stand while getting dressed. This greatly improves the overall experience.
5 -- Good coffee, or even a mini espresso maker will make your mornings a lot nicer! There's no time you feel more like you're out in the woods than when you wake up in the morning and realize where you are, so make sure it's a good time! Get up to a nice cup of your favorite drink in a nice mug, curl in a comfortable chair with a blanket, and stare out at the lovely scenery you've come all this way to see.
6 -- The most comfortable air mattress you find will make camping a lot nicer, even if luxury isn't your overall goal for this trip. As mentioned above the mornings are key to setting the tone for your day. If you wake up after sleeping on a rock all night you're going to already be off to a bad start. Waking up on a comfortable, raised, flock top air mattress can certainly make your morning a lot more enjoyable, right from the start.

Royal Caribbean Cruises Reviews
Royal Caribbean Cruises provide passengers with the opportunity for a sea journey aboard the ships of one of the largest fleet of passenger ships in the world. The Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines is also the cruising company managing Celebrity Cruises offering voyages on the Alaskan region.
Probably the most important contribution of the Royal Caribbean Cruise lines in the industry is when it launched one of the largest cruising ships 'Sovereign of the Seas' in 1988. It set off the rebirth of the construction of large mega ships.
Another mark it made in the cruising industry is the 'Freedom of the Seas' in 2006. It featured the first ever surfing machine aboard a cruise ship. The Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines is up to now dominating the industry as the innovative and creative cruise company.
The Royal Caribbean fleet is composed of the biggest passenger ships. From the fleet, the 'Empress of the Seas' is the smallest, yet it can accommodate up to 1,600 passenger. Each cabin in the ship can accommodate 2 passengers. The fleet also has the Vision class which is considerably roomier than the Empress.
The class offers room for about 1,800 to 2,400 guests. The Radiance class of the Royal Caribbean fleet offer accommodation for 2,000 passengers and more. The Voyager class' behemoths can sail with more than 3,100 guests aboard. The staterooms of older ships are considered smaller than staterooms of newer vessels yet the public areas like the balcony are grandly open and deluxe.
Royal Caribbean Cruises start off from numerous ports in the US. The cruise ships which depart from the ports in Tampa, Port Canaveral, Fort Lauderdale and Miami offer voyages to the Caribbean and Bahamas region. If you prefer other itineraries, choose to board Royal Caribbean ships departing from ports in Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Galveston and New Orleans. Ships cruising to San Juan Puerto Rico and Vancouver, Canada take passengers to more exotic and interesting destinations. Departure ports of the ships are often changed and ships too are repositioned so it would be smart to check this information from the Royal Caribbean's official web site or from your travel agent.
Aboard the ships are truly exceptional amenities and services. Apart from that, you will be amused with the ship's interior decorations. Exceptional artworks are combined with matching backdrops which are guaranteed to project a relaxing ambiance.
The ship's public area is designed with vibrant and distinct decors. The cabins where passengers stay during the night have more serene decorations. Reputable artists and experts are hired by the cruise company to decorate and design new vessels. These designers utilize design concepts which will highlight the focal areas of the newly constructed ships like Solarium for adults and pool facilities. In addition, there are certain works of art, displayed I the ship's corridors and stairwells which can provoke and induce the creative imagination of passengers. Decorative mosaics can be seen through non-glare and transparent flooring.
Dining periods aboard the Royal Caribbean ships are set with standard time. Early and late seating are provided in the main dining rooms of the ship. Gourmet appetizers, main entrees and desserts are served to passengers. There are also light and healthy foods for guests with special diets.

Hiking Camping Safety Tips which are essentials
Camping is fun for everybody, but you should be aware of the risks and take steps to protect yourself and your family. Common sense is paramount, but you should still know the basics in order to anticipate and deal with the more everyday incidents such as cuts, grazes and insect bites.
Safety should be the most important thing to consider when preparing for your camping out trip.
Here are a few things to think about before your next excursion.
1) Take a first aid kit
Make sure it is fully kitted out and replenished on a regular basis. This should contain items such as antiseptic cream/spray, bandages, plasters, tweezers, ibuprofen, paracetamol, insect bite/sting spray.
2) Have a charged and working mobile phone at all times
Think about how you are going to keep the phone charged. If the reception is poor upon arrival, think about how you will contact the emergency services should the need arise.
3) Look for dangerous items around camping spot before pitching the tent
Smashed glass or sharp items sticking out of the ground could cause problems when hidden by the base of the tent.
4) Campfire safety
If constructing a campfire, check the prevailing wind. Ensure that your tents, and other people's tents, are well out of range from your fire. Keep children and animals away from your campfire. Ensure you have a fire extinguisher or a bucket of water at hand at all times.
5) Dehydration
Something that is not considered until it is too late. Ensure that everybody drinks adequate amounts of liquid during the day, especially if the weather is hot.
Dehydration can creep up quickly (especially on a hot summer's day) and cause serious problems. The symptoms of dehydration include pale, cool, clammy skin, rapid breathing, excessive thirst, excessive and prolonged sweating, loss of skin elasticity, and sunken eyes in children.
If these symptoms are present, immediately get the sufferer in shade and have them completely rest. Also, remove any unnecessary clothing. Finally, drink cool water.
6) The nearest hospital
Find out where this is before leaving home. Hopefully, this should never need to be visited, but it is useful to know roughly in which direction to drive should you need to get there urgently.
7) Be careful if you go hiking alone
Ensure that somebody knows where you have gone. Consider whether anybody is likely to know where you are should get stuck at in the middle of nowhere with a broken leg.
