Aside from familiarizing yourself with the area as much as possible, you should also be sure you know how long you will be there, how you will get there and how you will get back. You should have a solid plan for how you will pay for your expenses, if you will need currency exchanged and other details.

Do you speak the language or will you be able to communicate somehow to get things that you need? If you are lost or need to ask for assistance, will you be able to do so?

Where will you stay? Are you booking your hotel ahead of time to be sure you have a place to go when you get there? Are you looking for a rental instead of a hotel? Planning out where you will stay is an important part of planning the vacation. You want to be certain you will have a place to stay when you arrive with no worries.
