Travelling by car is comfortable and fast. We can stop where we want and we aren´t depended on the

time-table. Disadvantage is quite a high price, traffic jams and the danger of accidents. Sometimes it is

difficult to find a place for parking.

Travelling by public means of transport is cheaper and faster, but buses and trains are often crowded and

they can be delayed.

Travelling by plane is fast and comfortable, but very expensive. We mostly travel by plane to foreign countries and for long distances. Some people are afraid of flying. And nowadays there is also the

danger of terrorist attack.

10

Hitch-hiking is mostly used by young people for fun and adventure. This type of travelling is really cheap,

but it is very dangerous and time-consuming.

bed&breakfast (B&B) or in a tent in a campsite.

• Hotel is the most comfortable, but the most expensivte.

• Bed and Breakfast (B&B) is a private home where breakfast is included in the price.

What is a difference between travelling with the travel agency and a holiday on your own?


Travel agency can arrange everything for us – journey, accommodation, travel insurance,

meals – half board/full board/all inclusive, trips. The only thing we need is to choose from the

catalogues of a travel agency. When we travel on our own, we can go whenever we

want and do whatever we want. We are not depended on timetable, but we have to

arrange everything by ourselves.

14

What do you need when you go on holiday?

Valid passport

Visa

Travel insurance

Foreign currency – money

Knowledge of foreign language

Maps, plans, guides

Tips for accommodation

15



When we go abroad we must get necessary documents (passports and a visa). We must have

travel insurance. Besides, we must change money to foreign currency in a bank or at an

exchange-office.

16



When going by train we must buy tickets and when we fly, we must get air tickets and find out our flight number and departure time.

We should know foreign languages because it is important for making ourselves understood.

17

What is the best holiday you have ever had?


My favourite country is Croatia, because I like clean see and nature there. In Croatia there are many beautiful places like National Park Paklenica, island Korcula and Plitvice lakes, and also many fine cities like Dubrovnik or Zagreb.
