Research your destination: Before leaving for the new destination do proper research. To make your trip smoother familiarise yourself with the custom and culture of your destination. If possible try to learn a few spoken phrases and that will be quite impressive. Check the weather condition of your desired destination and pack accordingly. Certain places are more prone to natural calamities like earthquakes, hurricanes or floods or may have civil unrest like terrorism so it's better to do prior research before you leave. Keep yourself well informed about the local laws of the country to avoid any kind of trouble.

Maintain good health: Good health is very vital for a successful business meeting or to give quality work and for that keep a check on your food habits and do take good care of yourself. You must be very excited to taste the flavours of local cuisine but before doing that check the hygiene standards. Avoid eating street food and drinking tap water instead eat in good restaurants and drink bottled water. Carry medicines related to certain common travel problems like stomach upset, cough and cold, painkiller and allergy so that you get quick relief and can focus on your work. Also, do prior research regarding the nearby hospitals or doctors to whom you can approach if you have any health issues.

Caution while travelling: Travelling involves the maximum risk so you should be alert while travelling. If possible try to be in a group or with the companion rather than travelling alone. It would be better if you share your itinerary with your friends or family. Be confident as your body language speaks your strength and avoid disclosing your name, number, and hotel’s name to the strangers. If you are travelling by car and driving yourself make sure you have your driving licence. If you opt for taxi choose to travel in reputed and registered taxis and it is better to pre-book it. Public transportation is the safest way to travel so if possible go for it in the new destination.

Take care of baggage: Take care of your baggage to ensure that they are not lost so always keep an eye on your carry bags. Do not keep your cell phone and passport in your language because there are chances of luggage getting lost. Do not carry expensive luggage or valuable items like jewellery during your business trip because it may attract thieves. Pack all essential items like important documents, charger and adaptor, medicines, etc. along with your clothes and footwear. Take a digital or Xerox copy of all your important documents. Pack light and carry only a few bags to have a safe and comfortable journey.

Safe accommodation: Choose your accommodation after checking the reviews and making a proper research. Book a hotel which is located in a safe area or near your client. Make sure your hotel has all safety norms like alarms, security boxes, security devices, etc. While booking the room always opt for a room above the ground floor and below the 7th floor. Do not leave your valuables in the hotel room. Carry a doorstop alarm for complete safety in the hotel room.

Make yourself aware of the importance of safety and security tips while travelling for business. If you do not have enough knowledge about this you might fall victim to professional crime or be in a vulnerable situation. So follow the above tips and you will surely have a successful business trip. By chance, if you find yourself in an emergency do not panic but contact the local police or call your near ones.
