Travel insurance

We recommend that you buy travel insurance to go with your tour package. This only costs $50 per person. It gives you a full refund of your payment if you cannot make the trip because of illness. It also provides extra hotels in case any flights are canceled because of weather or other problems. You also have medical attention on the trip if it is needed. This is a good way to make sure you do not lose any money you have spent.

Before you go

Before you travel to a new country you need to do a few things. First, check to see what the weather is like during the time you will be there. This will help you decide what kind of clothes to take with you. You should also read as much as you can about where you are going so you will have a good idea of things to see. If you do these things, your visit will be much more interesting and enjoyable, and you will be able to learn a lot more.

Do you agree with the way the boys solved the problem of what clothes to pack when travelling to two places with different climates? Why?
Preparation time: 20 seconds
Response time: 60 seconds

Possible answer: I agree because it's reasonable to wear the same light clothes you wear in hot weather but adding a sweater, jacket, or some other piece of clothing that will keep you warm in cold weather. That way you don't need to carry too much heavy baggage when you are in warmer places.
