On a cultural tour...
Try local cuisine
It sounds simple enough, yet many travellers miss out! One of the important aspects of any culture is its cuisine, so try to keep an open mind and try some local dishes. Even if something sounds a bit out of your culinary comfort zone, you might be pleasantly surprised!
Learn about history and traditions
If you are travelling to an area totally new to you, make sure you are familiar with local etiquette and traditions to avoid any disrespectful behaviour. In case of any doubt, make sure you ask all your questions before you set out.
Discover hidden gems
One of the biggest perks of cultural tours are the local guides. You get to explore a city or region with a person who knows every corner of it! Take the opportunity to see all the hidden gems, and don’t shy away from asking for recommendations for local places you can explore in your free time.
