]]>They’re Affordable
Since you’re going away for only two or three days it’s only logical that you won’t need to break a bank in order to afford a weekend trip.
Connect With People
Traveling is a great way to meet new people or bond with your loved ones, and that’s why weekend trips are great for spending more quality time with your friends.
Improve Mental Health
Traveling is great for reducing stress levels and improving mental health, and using your weekends to go on a short trip is a great way to unplug and use this time for relaxation.
Travel More Often
People who work a full-time job usually don’t have enough time for traveling, but organizing at least two or three weekend trips in a year is a great trick to travel more often.
Explore Your Own Backyard
Weekend getaways are perfect for exploring the beauties of your own country because there are probably many nearby places that you still haven’t visited.

]]>Weekend Getaway
If you can’t set aside a week or two for your next trip, a few days is sometimes all it takes to have an adventure of a lifetime. Put your next weekend to some good use and reignite your passion for travel by embarking on a short trip to an amazing nearby destination.
Familiar Places
Exploring the unknown is all fun and games, but if you’re trying to gain your confidence back, familiar destinations are your best bet. Revisit a city you enjoyed in the past to reawaken your sense of adventure and fall back in love with traveling all over again.
Road Trips
Road trips can be pretty challenging and full of unexpected surprises, but that’s exactly the part of their charm. They’ll prepare you for the best and worst parts of being away from home, and help you summon the courage for longer trips that await in your future.

]]>No Research Involved
Weekend getaways are pretty spontaneous and fun, but that doesn’t mean you should ditch planning altogether. Doing the proper research before embarking on your trip will save you a lot of time because you’ll know exactly where you’re supposed to go.
Distant Attractions
One of the main downsides of the weekend getaways is that you won’t have a lot of time on your hands. That’s why you should avoid planning day-trips to faraway destinations or crowded spots that will completely mess up your schedule.

Wrong Accommodation
If you’re not traveling by car, picking accommodation with a central location is crucial when it comes to weekend getaways. Apartments and hotels on the outskirts may fit your budget better, but you’ll waste a lot of time trying to reach major tourist attractions.

]]>Short Ride
It’s crucial to keep your day trips short and avoid destinations that require a long ride. If you’re traveling by bus or a train, keep in mind it will take a bit of time to reach a station. Opt for a destination that doesn’t take longer than two hours to reach, but you can be a bit more flexible if you’re traveling by car.
Multiple Stops
Are you checking out a single tourist attraction during your day trip or making several stops? If you’re planning to see a few things at once, hit the road as early as possible, have a detailed schedule, and stick to it so you could return home in time.
Food for Thought
Most people enjoy checking out new restaurants and cafés while traveling, but it usually takes time for the food to reach your table. Keep that in mind when planning your trip, and if you don’t want to waste any time waiting for food, pack some snacks so you could eat on the go.

]]>Wish List
It’s highly likely you won’t get to see everything that a big city has to offer in a single day, but it doesn’t matter as long as you’ve checked out things that truly interest you. When making your picks, try to opt for attractions that are located in close proximity to each other so you wouldn’t waste time commuting to the other side of the city.
(@diefreundinvonnebenan)Proper Preparation
You won’t be able to figure things out as you go along when you’re short on time. Do proper research before embarking on your trip, and know exactly what you want to see, how to get there and how much time it will take to check out each spot.
(@wonderoustwo)Outside Look
When you only have 24 hours at your disposal, wasting a single second in endless lines is not an option. You’ll have to settle on seeing the majority of top attractions from the outside because you won’t get to explore the rest of the city otherwise.
