Top 10 Mistakes to Avoid When Planning an International Trip

Excited for your next holiday abroad? Great! But even the best plans can fall apart due to small mistakes. Here’s Curatour’s guide to 10 common travel blunders — and how to avoid them.

1. Ignoring Visa & Documentation Rules

Always check requirements 45–60 days in advance. Curatour helps manage all travel documentation for you.

2. Overpacking

Less is more — pack versatile outfits and keep some space for souvenirs.

3. Missing Travel Insurance

It’s not optional — it’s essential.

4. Skipping Local Research

Know local customs, tipping culture, and language basics.

5. Poor Budget Planning

Include hidden costs like airport transfers, meals, and local entry tickets.

6. Not Checking Connectivity

Ensure mobile data or Wi-Fi options are set before departure.

7. Ignoring Seasonal Factors

Traveling off-season saves money and avoids crowds.

8. Booking Flights Too Late

Prices rise drastically 30–40 days before travel.

9. Not Customizing the Itinerary

Generic tours miss out on personal touches — a big Curatour no-no.
