Fun Travel Group names

Traveling with friends can be extremely fun. It can also be stressful, which causes tension. There’s no way to totally eliminate those stressful moments, but I do have a few tips to help lessen them.

Choosing Your Companions

When deciding who you want to go with on a trip, it's important to choose people you get along with. Travel forces you and your friends to be together almost constantly. After spending so much time with someone, you'll learn a lot about them but the ability to have some space from them will be difficult.

You may find they have habits you never knew about–and which annoy you. That’s okay, they’re probably finding the same out about you! Don’t let this deter you from traveling with friends, the shared experience can bring you closer and strengthen your friendship for a lifetime. All it takes is a little planning and some guidelines to make this possible.

Money

Once you’ve decided on a place, decide on a budget range. Money can be a sensitive topic and by agreeing beforehand on the level of luxury you’re willing to pay for, you can avoid much conflict later. What one person considers affordable may not align with what others think, so make sure to be specific.

For example, when I went on a week long trip to the Almafi Coast with three friends, we decided we were willing to spend 30-50 euros a night for a hostel. Not only did this make the search easier by giving us some parameters, it also made it go more smoothly. Another good practice is to create a group fund for joint expenses such as taxi rides. At the start, everyone puts in the same amount and when the fund is empty, everyone pays in the same amount. Repeat until the trip is over, any extra funds can be equally distributed at the end.
