Wander Around Your City
There are a variety of ways to get familiar with a travel destination.
Some people enjoy a city tour, allowing them to get a quick layout of the city, making notes of places they wish to explore in more detail. Some people do all their research online, printing out maps and suggestion lists. Some people download audio tours and wander the city with their iPods.
I enjoy wandering around a city, sometimes purposefully, sometimes aimlessly, stopping if and when I want.
I came across a couple of unique approaches to learning about a city recently.
In Seattle, the Clock Walk takes you on a walking tour of Seattle, going from one public clock location to another (there are 27 stops in all). The information is available online, you can proceed at your own pace (approximately 90 minutes), and it’s free. (Via The Seattle Traveler)
The Great Ohana Hunt is a scavenger hunt that takes you around various places around Waikiki. Teams scramble around the city, collecting clues and answering questions, while learning about the city. Cost: $15-22, depending on group size. (Via The Lobby)
