The most popular time of the year to travel is in the summer. Good weather and vacation time go hand in hand, and millions of people make the trek from their hometowns to different cities around the world during the months of June, July, and August.

It’s important to be comfortable even when the mercury climbs. So, here are four tips that will help you stay cool while exploring cities this summer!

Wear Light Fabrics

“Light” in this case refers to two things: both the weight and the color of the fabric. 

Avoid dark colors and heavy fabrics like wool in order to keep your body cool in the summertime.

Drink Lots of Water

Water is your best ally against overheating. Keep a liter or so of cold water in a temperature-resistant thermos and carry it with you, being sure to drink regularly!

Seek Out Spots with Air Conditioning

Instead of roasting outside all day, it’s nice to get a break inside an air-conditioned space at times. Grab a quick lunch or snack in a place with air conditioning in order to cool off.

Free Your Feet

It’s amazing how much wearing socks can make you feel hotter. Wearing sandals helps you feel much more fresh and cool during hot weather travel!
