5 Types Of Vacay Buddies (and How to Deal)

There’s just no greater feeling than heading off to an exotic destination, immersing in new cultures and curating that envy-inducing Instagram feed. However, what’s not so enjoyable is when your companion is being a royal pain.

If you suspect you’re about to head off on a big holiday with any of the following travel species, heed the advice of Contiki tour manager Jessica Nann. She’s dealt with every kind of challenging traveller imaginable. And there are a lot of them ...

1 THE WILD, CRAZY PARTY ANIMAL

HOW TO RECOGNISE THEM: Will use (read: scream) the words “Woohoo” and “Party!” at every opportunity. 

HOW TO DEAL: If you don’t like clubbing until 4am every night, travelling with a party animal can be exhausting. Not to mention that sleep might be optional. When in this situation, hit the hay early.

“You’d be kicking yourself if you woke up with a hangover and missed out on seeing incredible places because you’re feeling like absolute rubbish,” says Jessica.

2 THE ONE WHO PLANS WAY TOO MUCH

HOW TO RECOGNISE THEM: Most likely to have carefully packed each daily outfit in separate Ziploc bags in their suitcase.
