- Public transport
Public transport can often be a pain when you are traveling short distance, but traveling long distance like this can provide a high-speed solution to cross-country travel. Whether by coach or train, you can ensure that you get a good deal for your tickets by booking early. You will also get there in a fraction of the time it would take if you were traveling by yourself.
- By car
Some people prefer to travel by themselves however, which is fair enough. Sometimes public transport can be a little frustrating, and even though gas isn't cheap, it can be fun to drive long distance. When traveling so far in the car you may want to make it into more of a road trip. Get some food and drink, make regular stop offs and try and have fun whilst you're traveling. This is a great thing to do if you have children, too. Making the journey fun stops boredom and avoids that dreaded question 'are we there yet?'
If you're traveling by car, remember to use the Internet to improve your journey times as well. Satellite navigation can help you avoid the motorway and will give you the most commonly used route to places, but services like Google Maps allow you to edit the route to make the journey more interesting; even edit the route to make it a little quicker. Have a look round the Google Maps website to see if there's anything you can do to make the journey a little more bearable.
