What are the dangers to look out for? With the existence of travel review platforms and forums, there's no reason for you not to do your research and have a peace of mind wherever you are going!

Travel Community

It's a no-brainer for any traveller. There are so many online travel communities out there, a well-known one being TripAdvisor.

TripAdvisor gives you real and genuine reviews from travellers who have stayed at or visited any countries you can think of! One trick that you should look out for are the reviews by different levels of contributors.

While it's easy to lean towards to contributors with higher levels, we recommend also looking through at contributors with lower levels too. Some reviews even give you some tips and tricks, so be sure to read as many reviews as possible. You'll be sure to get a good idea of what to expect when you visit the country.

Tour Booking Websites

Get an idea of what to do from tour booking sites! There are tons of things to look out for in every country. Browse through the website and take in ideas on things to do.

Of course, you don't have to book the tours on the websites, just read the reviews of each listing and judge for yourself. Done? Create your own itinerary for when you get there. Or if you'd like, go ahead and book it!
