You might have planned to wear footwears that match to your outfits. However, while walking or trekking on hills or long-distance locations, it gets very tiring and annoying when you are wearing uncomfortable footwear and you may not enjoy the vacation. Hence, always keep a spare pair of comfortable sneakers or flats, so that you can walk easily to all locations and make your vacation memorable.
