  • Boat travel is not only cheap but one of the best experiences on the most beautiful rivers of European cities.
     
  • Always keep away from the edge and putting out a hand in the water is reckless and risky.
     
  • There are attendants on board so please be sure to ask them of any problem. Take a motion sickness tablet before traveling on a boat if you are allergic or uncomfortable to certain things.
     
  • There are boat instruction manuals available at the offices and reception while buying a ticket so never forget to ask for a copy.
     
  • Traveling by train can be quite exciting in Europe. Some of them are extremely fast and cover distances in a snap.
     
  • Traveling by train could be a quite soothing, relaxing, economical alternative to an air flight and you can enjoy a scenic view of the countryside and spend time together.
     
  • If the trip includes elders and family then always opt for the most direct route available because it will reduce stress and chances of missing a train due to delays.
     
  • Most trains offer reduced prices for children under 16 and children under 4 can travel free, so always check with the booking office.
     
  • If the train travel is longer than 6 hours consider the night hours for traveling and always book a sleeper car.
     
  • Ask for a window seat while booking a ticket. Most of the countries in Europe give priority to tourists who ask for face-to-face seats if they are traveling with their family.
     
  • Arrive early for booking if you aspire for priority boarding.
     
  • Always prefer loose fitting clothes if you are planning for a long journey on the train.

  • Carry a camera so that you can capture the beautiful and scenic sights while traveling.

Travel by Air.

  • Always read the ticket and baggage instruction manual inside the ticket booklet and follow strictly the do’s and don’ts.
     
  • One of the most important aspects is get your luggage weighed before boarding a flight so as not to pay heavy charges on extra luggage. Always pack the essential things.
     
  • In some of the countries like the UK, France, Germany and others flights may be a cheaper option to the train, on top of that flights are the best and fastest ways to get around different locations.
     
  • At high altitudes, the flight tends to get very cold so it’s advisable to carry along a jacket if you are not sure of being provided with a blanket.
     
  • Some flights can be noisy and pain in the ears so ask for an ear plug or look in one of the pockets near your seat.
     
  • If you are allergic to or suffer from motion sickness don't forget to take medicines before you board a flight because prevention is better than cure.
     
  • Please mention beforehand if you are a vegetarian so that you don’t have to ask around later for the food you have been provided with.
     
  • Pets can also be carried on flights but they have to be in special containers and a small fee is payable for their shipping.
     
  • Jet lag is a syndrome when your body wants to sleep as per normal even though it's any hour of the day at the place where you heading off, so don’t worry.
     
  • That might solve most of the queries an air traveler has. Wish you a happy and a safe journey
