At the end of the day, who knows if there will be another lockdown, so whoever you choose to stay with this summer, opt for a flexible stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Cleaning Precautions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"cleaning](\"https:\/\/city-lodgers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/shutterstock_1695842029.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nWhen booking a city break post-covid, there\u2019s bound to be very strict cleaning precautions to ensure safety for yourself and others.
Businesses across the UK will be required to follow national guidance, including social distancing and cleanliness protocols.
Of course, when staying in any accommodation, it will be thoroughly cleaned before and after your stay, but that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t help out.
Leaving your accommodation once you\u2019re done with it in a clean state will go a long way and is just generally a kind thing to do!
This goes for personal hygiene as well, like when you\u2019re picking up your keys, or meeting anyone during your stay.
Don\u2019t forget to bring your post-covid essentials with you, which we will cover in our next point!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Post COVID Essentials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"post](\"https:\/\/city-lodgers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/shutterstock_1672778686.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nWho\u2019d have thought that wearing a mask and carrying around countless tubs of hand sanitiser would become the new norm?!
When going on your post-covid city break, you need to ensure you\u2019ve got all these important items with you.
Essentials will include things like gloves, hand sanitisers, visors, hand soap, disinfectant wipes, spray, and of course \u2013 masks!
Don\u2019t worry too much if you forget your masks, because there are plenty you can get in shops, but it\u2019s best you try and remember it.
If you\u2019re struggling to get your hands on masks, it might be worth looking online on websites like Amazon<\/a>, where there are plenty to choose from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n4. Medical Kits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"medical](\"https:\/\/city-lodgers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/shutterstock_763403533.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThis may sound a little over precautious, but trust us, you can expect a big rise in medical kits when it comes to post-covid city breaks!
There\u2019s nothing worse than becoming unwell on a relaxing break, and having nothing to help make you feel better \u2013 right?
So, we\u2019d definitely recommend buying yourself a handy little bag and filling it with things like paracetamol, cough sweets, and plasters.
This bag will definitely become your saviour, and you\u2019ll end up being very thankful for it if you become unwell!
Usually when staying in a rented accommodation, some form of medical kit will be provided, but you should still be prepared nonetheless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Travel Etiquette<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"travel](\"https:\/\/city-lodgers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/shutterstock_1700844079.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nOne main thing to expect on our post-covid city break is the change in travel etiquette, with things like social distancing most likely still in place.
Even little things, like giving someone a handshake \u2013 it\u2019s just not post-covid etiquette anymore!
You will most likely have to adhere to the rules of social distancing and keep close human contact to a very minimum.
Say, for example, someone you\u2019re meeting whilst on your city break wants to break the lockdown rules and meet in a large group.
You have to consider the effects of this, and a way to decline politely, to keep yourself, and others safe!
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
6. Fewer Places For Shorter Durations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"more](\"https:\/\/city-lodgers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/shutterstock_270477641-1.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nDepending on the current national rules laid out by the government, you may be able to visit and outdoor area like a zoo or theme park.
On your city break, you need to consider going to fewer places, for shorter durations, with many venues offering time limits.
Many visitors will have to book their time slot online, and stick to that time slot, so the space doesn\u2019t get too crowded.
This may mean you\u2019ll actually be able to visit and see fewer places, which is, of course a massive shame, but it has to be done.
Try and see it as a positive, at least you\u2019re able to explore the cool city you\u2019re staying in for your city break \u2013 even if it\u2019s minimal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
7. More Walking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"city](\"https:\/\/city-lodgers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/shutterstock_1686179335.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nIt\u2019s no doubt that walking has become increasingly more popular over lockdown, with many people using it as an \u201cescape from reality!\u201d
And we can\u2019t blame them, walking can not only be incredibly relaxing, but super healthy and great for our wellbeing.
When you\u2019re on your post-covid city break, expect more walking trips with takeaway coffees as opposed to nightclubs and restaurant dinners.
Of course, it all really depends when you go on your city break and what restrictions are in place, but definitely expect more walking!
Don\u2019t see this as a negative though, walking is going to give you a great excuse to explore the city you\u2019re visiting and get plenty of Insta pics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
8. Less Eating Out<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"city](\"https:\/\/city-lodgers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/shutterstock_1722172828-1.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Again, this point is really going to depend on the current restrictions in place at the time of your post-covid city break.
But as a whole, you should probably be making the conscious decision to eat out less, purely for yourself and other people\u2019s safety!
We\u2019re not saying you have to never go out for a meal ever again, because everyone loves a cheeky meal out \u2013 right?
But try and limit the number of times you\u2019re going out for meals when you\u2019re away because it\u2019s just the sensible thing to do atm.
Opt for summery picnics in an outside space, where COVID-19 is a lesser risk!
We hope you found this post-covid city break plan useful, and you\u2019re feeling a little more prepared in terms of what to expect. Don\u2019t let this blog bog you down though, because this is one step in the right direction back to normality!
