5. Don’t: Try to Do It All
Whether you’re visiting for the first time or the hundredth, you’re probably going to be tempted to squeeze everything you possibly can into the few days you’re there. Don’t do this. It takes away from the fun and makes things stressful and less spontaneous.
Do: Make a Plan
Instead of trying to do it all while, pick and choose the things that are most important to you and make a plan to do those things, leaving plenty of time in between for meandering, exploring, or stopping to watch street performers. This will result in a much more laid-back feeling and will help everyone have more fun.
