Planning a Trip Budget –Figure out how much you can afford and where can you go?

Think about what you want in a trip –Do you want to: Visit family? Visit a new location? Go site seeing? –(see the Statue of Liberty, the Grand Canyon)

Choosing your Destination Look into travel guides –Travel guides give great tips on locations throughout the world! –Pick one up at the Library or at a Bookstore

Once you know where you want to go…. Think about how will you get there? –By car: how long will it take you? Would it be better to take another type of transportation. –Airplane: look for tickets everywhere, shop around to get an inexpensive flight. –Bus: travel time is not quick but is inexpensive. –Train: a little more expensive but can be faster than a bus.
