Travel Tips

a Cities like London, Paris, and Venice are very popular places for sightseeing. The pyramids in Egypt and the Great Wall in China are important tourist attractions. They receive thousands of visitors each year. However, tourists today are always looking for new destinations. It is now possible to visit Antarctica, to take holidays under the sea, and even go on holiday in space.

b Lots of companies offer organized tours with tour leaders. These are often to places famous for their art and history, like Italy or Egypt. Or what about an adventure holiday – trekking or scuba-diving? Wildlife holidays, with activities from bird watching to whale-watching, are popular but can be expensive. Or you could choose independent travel. A lot of young people go backpacking around the world after they finish their education.

c You need to decide which part of travel industry you want to work in. if you like people, you could work for an airline, looking after passengers in the air or on the ground. Or you could work in a hotel, where you would meet and talk to guests every day. If you like the business side more, think about working for a tour operator (the people who organize holidays) or a travel agent (the people who sell them to customers). If you want to travel, you can become a tour leader.
