Be vigilant when dealing with local police or other officials, in case they're not who they claim to be, but instead are imposters. Don't give anyone your original passport; you will probably never see it again. If you are asked to go to an office with them, walk. Do not get in a vehicle with a local who you don't know.

When traveling with children, carry a color picture of them with you at all times so that you can use it to identify them were they to get lost. The idea of losing your child likely scares you, but not being prepared is worse. Though it certainly feels devastating, it is a reality for many. Keeping a picture of your child on hand can really help a lot if they ever get lost.

When traveling by car to a port prior to cruising, search for lodgings where you can park at no cost and make reservations for the night before departure. Ask the staff about deals for parking even if you haven't been able to locate any.

Whenever possible, purchase tickets for admission to attractions online, then print them instantly or opt for will-call. Just avoiding the time you will wait in line makes up for the small online printing fee. You can also often skip the admissions line altogether.

Get a workout in before you get on the plane. This will help you avoid the tediousness of long flights. Sitting for a long time can cause cramps in your legs and back. If you workout or stretch before the flight, the probability of getting cramps is greatly reduced.

When traveling, it is important to wear shoes that are comfortable and easily removable. Remember that shoes need to come off at the security checkpoint. Comfort is extremely important. In airports and on planes, you will not walk that much, but you will sit a lot; therefore heavy-duty support isn't necessary. The ultimate shoes for travel are sandals or flip flops.
