Nothing can beat the excitement of going on vacation with your girl-squad. A vacation spent with the people you like the most will give you the best experience, whether it is your old gang from high school, your workplace buddies, or maybe childhood friends, a little girl time can surely elevate your spirit after the exhausting daily routines. Say, you and your girl-friends have decided to travel together, here are some tips that you might have to consider before traveling with your BFFs.
Pick the date in advance
Just like your regular vacation trips, this one has to be taken on the best day of the year. But planning for a group, especially if everyone in the group has a different schedule, can be pretty tricky. Marking your calendar way in advance can be a good idea. While you're at it, also decide how long you will have the vacation, too short and you're most likely miss a lot of great experience, too long and your friends might find it hard to commit. Take your time to pick the best day that will give you the best experience and works for everyone, planning way ahead is better than having a rushed vacation that might give you a chaotic trip.
Consider who to invite
The challenge of catering to a group's preference is that everyone will have their own, which also might contradict the others'. The key to a pleasant trip is having a compatible group. You don't have to force yourself to invite someone that will possibly cause more drama during your day-out, be selective. If needed, you can contact those who don't get invited and explain why the trip is not suitable for them. Another tip if this is the first time for the group to get a vacation together: choose resorts and packaged trips since it would be easier with less inconvenience.
Set the budget
If the group's members are not on the same level financially, you will have to adjust some things so no one felt left out. It might be tempting to imagine staying at a luxurious hotel and eat at a 5-star restaurant every day during the trip, but remember to focus more on the destination and activities. Pick the most flexible accommodation and meal-plan possible, this will be one of the keys to suppress the budget. Discuss the possibility of splitting some fees to ease the spending for the group as a whole. Finally, don't forget to search for affordable trip packages on the Internet and pick the best itinerary that suits your group.
Choose the best itinerary for the group
It would be great if everyone in the group likes to do the same thing. But more often than not, you have your own preferences. If that is the case you can choose a day or two for everyone to do their own things and go off by themselves if they want to. But if it's not possible, make sure to discuss the day-to-day activities and destinations. One of our recommendations for a great girls' day out activity is getting a massage.

Be realistic
One last thing to remember for this trip is don't expect everything to go perfectly. No matter how much and thoroughly you plan the trip, unpredictable things can always happen especially in a foreign place. Girl friends are more likely to have different interests and priorities regarding many things. Handle things like adults and don't let small differences ruin your quality time with your BFFs. Don't be too ambitious, and plan things that won't fit within the projected duration. It is better to have excellent memories in three places rather than forgettable and exhausting ones in five places.
