Choose the destination that is right for you. You'll need to consider the climate during this particular time of year, and decide if you want to travel to a popular destination where there will be crowds, or to something more secluded.
Make safety a number one priority. It's important to work with a well-known and experienced tour operator. Be sure to find out if they have knowledge of the area you plan to visit and are aware of any possible dangers associated with traveling there. Limit wearing or bringing any expensive items that can draw attention to you and tempt thieves. Travel in groups and stay in well-known areas.
Choose a tour destination that is well within your means. It's a good idea to have extra money in case of expenses that you have not planned for. You'll enjoy your vacation much more if you do not have the added stress of worrying about money. Look for tour packages that include airfare, hotel accommodations and other unplanned expenses.
Spend time researching your vacation destination. You'll find that customs, laws and health and safety standards vary from country to country. Confer with a spring break tour company for important information about your destination. Schedule a tour that educates you about the area you're visiting.
Take special care when packing for the trip. Remember to bring all of the documents you may need, such as required identification, forms and passport. Make sure that you have left contact information and a copy your itinerary with your parents or appropriate adults and keep phone numbers for the closest U.S. Embassy or Consulate in case of an emergency.
