Places you should avoid travelling to during the festive holiday season

Festivities celebration is most likely equivalent to holidays and there will be a pretty good chance that it will be a long holiday as well. For most people it is a huge opportunity to go some place, some where to wind down, relax and have a much needed break away from work. One of the best tips that is worth noting while you are traveling for your holidays during the festive season is to block out and avoid a couple of places away from your getaway holiday.

Places you should avoid travelling to during the festive holiday season are:

- The beaches

- Islands with beaches

- Highland resorts

- Anywhere labeled as a hot tourist spot

Haha! I know this sounds almost ridiculous to totally block out the normal places that people go to for a getaway, but believe me, it is just so much worth it to strictly follow by these guideline. But why should you really avoid the places listed above?

The reason is simple. Those places are crowded, jam-packed and there will be a gazillion of people trying to go to the same place as you do. Imagine going to an island, hoping to laze around under the sun on the beautiful beach only to be overwhelmed by throng of people  and if you are even lucky, you may get a spot at the beach. So for all the reason that it is going to be crazy and fully loaded with way too many human beings, you ought to might as well skip going to all those places (beaches, islands,highland resorts,tourist hot spot) during any festive seasons at all time.

Hence, the places that I suggest you to go instead are :

To stay around the city and go to tourist hot spots around the city instead. This is because all the city dwellers are hoarding the outskirts and suburbs, so yeah, it is a great chance for you to roam around town with less people around to rub shoulders with. Haha. Some suggestions on city tourist hot spot  will be the parks, exhibition centers, art galleries, theaters, the zoo, museums and you can even enjoy some outdoor fun like jungle trekkings around the vicinity area of the city and the lists are endless.

Another next best thing to do and quite possibly the best way to keep you stress free from the traffic IS to just stay in and have a lovely bbq and fun 'eating and games' session at home with your family. What a better way to spend a quality time (which we don't often get to do) with the people you love and want to have more time around with. So go crazy and have a great party with lots of fun and laughter. That will surely do the trick for a much relaxing and much needed getaway.

And...if you really must go to some beach just so you can wind down, travel abroad to places like Bali or Phuket and enjoy the beaches there instead. Hopefully you won't be bumping around on too many local people from where you are coming from. :)

Don't you agree with me that you should just simply avoid travelling to hot tourist areas during the festive holidays? Those places are just too crazy and hectic to be around with. So yeah, staying in and sticking around the city by far are the best things you can do during the festive holiday season, or unless you have a better suggestions on places we can go to minus the crazy crowd, then do share your thoughts at the comments below. Would love to hear it out and make some pointers out of that too!
