How to Avoid Tourist Traps

Have you fallen into tourist traps in the past?

Are you looking for ways to protect yourself while you travel?

Are you worried about traveling to an unfamiliar place?

Ann Arbor, Michigan is one of the safest places to visit in the state. It can be exciting to visit a new place. But, it can also be worrisome if you’re out of your comfort zone. It’s important to know how to avoid tourist traps to stay safe while you’re on vacation. 

1. Research before and after you arrive –  get the inside scoop on your destination before you arrive. Ask the hotel concierge for advice on attraction and things to do that might interest you.
2. Look for locals – Locals know all the hangouts! Have friends in-town? Maybe they can give you some recommendations.
3. Ignore hawkers and touts – Stick to reading restaurant reviews and asking locals where they eat before choosing a restaurant. At the very least you don’t want to spend the night in your hotel room sick on vacation because of something you ate. 
4. Don’t sleep in tourist zones – You’ll end up spending more money on hotel. However, you’ll likely discover a much better food, shopping, and exploration scene where locals actually hang out. Weber’s is located just on the outskirts of downtown Ann Arbor, but we’re also near many shopping areas and a car ride away from the heart of downtown.
