Insider Travel Tips

These are the things we wish we knew before our first visit—straight from our experience and conversations with locals:

Beat the Crowds

Arrive at popular attractions right when they open. We had entire sites to ourselves before 9 AM!

Money Saving Secret

Look for local lunch specials—restaurants often serve the same quality food at half the dinner price.

Learn Key Phrases

A simple 'hello' and 'thank you' in the local language opens doors. Locals genuinely appreciate the effort.

Best Time to Visit

Shoulder season (just before or after peak) offers perfect weather with fewer tourists and better prices.
