Resources, Tips & Tricks:

  • It’s not only important to have health insurance but you. Should have insurance for your valuables as well
  • Never assume that just because a country or city is considered safe that you should let your guard down
  • Buy your plane tickets on your visa. If the airline can’t offer you a refund your credit card might. Choose a credit card that has specific flight perks.
  • Airbnb does not have coverage for the guests but Airbnb hosts do have coverage
  • Be careful who you choose to travel with. When things go wrong people will show their true colours and not everyone handles stress the same.

Ever had a trip go so spectacularly wrong it becomes a story you tell for years? That’s the territory explored in Travel Horror Stories Podcast, hosted by Christopher Rudder. This isn't just a collection of misfortunes, though. Each episode sits down with a diverse mix of guests-from seasoned travel writers and influencers to professionals in tourism and regular people who just ventured a bit too far off the map. They share their most vivid, gripping tales from the road, which range from the genuinely scary and tense to the downright weird, silly, and unsettling. The real hook is what happens after the story is told. Rudder and his guest unpack the experience, digging into what actually went awry, what the traveler did right in the moment, and what could have been done differently. It’s this blend of empathetic storytelling and practical reflection that gives the podcast its unique flavor. You’ll find yourself cringing, laughing, and maybe even learning a thing or two about navigating the unpredictable world of travel. Tuning into this podcast feels like swapping stories with a well-traveled friend, where every misadventure holds a lesson, or at least a really good laugh.
