Travel Basics for Path & Wander Trips

Planning checkpoint: finalize daily anchors (breakfast time, main activity, dinner window) before booking tickets to avoid reshuffling in-destination.

What to Expect​

  • Straightforward logistics with arrival buffers, backup indoor options, and transit-first routes.
  • Recommendations focus on repeatable patterns rather than one-off splurges.
  • All timing assumes daylight hours; adjust by -30 minutes in winter to keep daylight walks.

How Long to Allocate​

  • Build 90-minute blocks for major sights; shorter 45-minute windows for cafés or neighborhood walks.
  • Keep transfer buffers at 20 minutes when traveling with kids; 10 minutes is adequate for adults with light bags.

Practical Tips​

  • Download the local transit app before departure; load tickets digitally to skip vending lines.
  • Carry a foldable tote and small first-aid kit; it covers snacks, rain layers, and playground stops.
  • Book one refundable restaurant per day—cancel by 12:00 if the schedule slides.
  • Save offline maps with pinned tram stops, playgrounds, and pharmacies to reduce on-the-ground decisions.

Visiting with Kids​

  • Alternate high-energy days (theme parks, long walks) with calm ones (museums, cafés).
  • Keep snacks visible and frequent; a 90-minute cadence prevents end-of-day meltdowns.
  • Scope restrooms near playgrounds in advance; note indoor cafés willing to host quick breaks.
