Vegan Travel: 6 Tips To Make It A Breeze

by Jeremy Banks Evolutesix

The vegan lifestyle is a wonderful thing, but it's not always easy. You have to be careful about what you eat and where you eat it. Luckily, there are tons of amazing vegan options out there for you to choose from—and an increasing number of restaurants offering them. If you're planning on joining vegan tours and want to enjoy some tasty food without harming any animals along the way, just follow these tips:

Make a plan

Planning ahead is the best way to make sure you stay on track. Create a daily plan that includes all of your meals, snacks, and activities for each day. Try to schedule at least one meal in advance so that you can find vegan options at restaurants (if possible) or bring your own food along with you during travel.

You should also think about what type of accommodations are available in case an emergency occurs. If something unforeseen happens and you need help finding vegan meals or accommodations, use the app to find nearby restaurants while traveling!

Don't be afraid to ask locals

Don't be afraid to ask! If you're traveling in a country where English is not the main language, don't hesitate to ask locals for help. They may be confused at first, but once they realize that their native tongue isn't what you're looking for, they will go out of their way to help. Also, don’t forget about the people who work at hotels and hostels—they are there to make sure you have everything needed for an enjoyable stay and can often provide some great insights into local life.

Ask at restaurants, hotels and tour operators if there are any vegan options available. Asking for some guidance on which restaurants offer vegan meals on their menus is always a good bet too; just remember not all places will accommodate special dietary needs when it comes down to the nitty gritty details of cooking.

Bring snacks

One of the most important things to remember when going vegan on the road is that you’re not only worrying about what you’re eating, but where and when. This means being prepared for anything—or at least trying to be.

Snacks are a must-have for any traveler, no matter how long or short their trip might be. Bringing some extra tasty treats with you can help curb hunger pains, keep your energy levels up during an all-day adventure or flight, and give friends and family something fun to munch on while they wait in line at security or baggage claim.

Get travel insurance

No matter how many precautions you take and how much research you do, things can go wrong. Traveling is stressful enough without having to worry about being stuck in a foreign country with no way home or losing all your stuff. Make sure the policy covers any medical expenses, lost luggage, canceled flights or tours and if you lose your passport or money while traveling.

Learn the local language

Knowing a few words of the local language can make a big difference. It could save you from being lost in translation, help you ask for help if you need it, and even impress the locals with your ability to speak their language.

It's important to know that every country has its own unique slang, so keep in mind that not all words used in one country will necessarily hold true elsewhere. Also, it's generally considered polite to use formal speech when speaking with someone.

If there are any phrases or words that look like they'll be useful on your trip ahead—like asking for food options at restaurants—take some time before leaving home by making flashcards so that they're easy to remember when needed!

Be careful where you book a tour.

When choosing a tour operator, make sure you research the company's ethical and environmental policies. If they don't have any, or if their website doesn't have any information about those things, that's a red flag. Ethical operators should be transparent about where they source their products from and how they treat their employees.

You can also ask the tour operator if your tour will include vegetarian or vegan options, as well as whether they cater for special diets (if you have to). Finally, find out if there are vegan menus available on this particular trip that can be provided by the hotel or restaurant you'll be staying at during your travels.

Hopefully, this post has given you some inspiration for your next trip. Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or just starting to explore the world, there’s no reason not to try vegan travel! It can be challenging at first, but with some planning and research, it can be as easy as any other type of vacation.
