Things You'll Need:

  • Transportation

  1. Step 1

    Pick a time to travel. There are more events going on during the summer months but events will be crowded during this peak tourism season.

  2. Step 2

    Research hotels and travel packages. Many times you can get a discount when you book a trip online. You should also consider going to a travel agent. Be sure to book your trip in advance to get a better price on airline tickets and a better hotel room.

  3. Step 3

    Look for a hotel near the places you wish to visit. When you plan to go to Disneyland in Anaheim, try to find a hotel near the Disneyland Resort. Consider what you plan to do in Santa Ana before you book your trip.

  4. Step 4

    Book your trip. Make arrangements with a travel agent or go online to purchase your trip. Your best bet is to use an insured credit card to avoid fraud and provide you with some reassurance. Check out the Web site of the hotel that you plan to book to make sure the accommodations suit your needs.

  5. Step 5

    Make plans and make a list of things you want to do. There are many things to see in Santa Ana such as the Bowers Museum and the Santa Ana Zoo. It is a good idea to map out your plans before the trip so that you are not overwhelmed when you get there.

  6. Step 6

    Pack your bags and double check to make sure you’re not missing anything. Make sure you have all your necessities such as sunscreen and a swimsuit. Keep your luggage organized and mark it with a sticker or something that stands out so you can find it upon arrival.

Tips & Warnings
  • Make time for your plans. You don’t have to do everything on your list. Allow yourself to enjoy all of the attraction and don’t rush.
  • Arrive early for your flight. You will have to go through security and that may take a while.
