Trip Planning Books and Videos

Trip planning often includes researching possible vacation spots in travel guides, books and videos.

If you have never used a travel guide for travel planning, it can help in so many ways but to get maximum benefit you need to do a lot of your studying before you leave for your destination.

Smaller, lesser known areas of the world can be well worth a detour but changing of plans during your trip is very difficult these days; you must do your homework before leaving.

Study the country you wish to visit with maps. A country map is especially helpful when traveling by train.
