Autistic Travel Preparation Guide

AUTISTIC TRAVEL PREPARATION GUIDE

A neurodiversity-affirming, sensory-friendly printable workbook

for calmer, kinder, more confident travel.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Travel is wonderful — and exhausting. For autistic travellers, the

same trip that delights also taxes: bright lights, unpredictable

schedules, unfamiliar food, crowds, and the cognitive weight of

constant decision-making.

This 20-page guide was built on one simple idea: PREPARATION IS

SELF-CARE. Every checklist, script and template inside exists to

shrink the unknown — so your nervous system has more room to

actually enjoy the journey.

WHAT'S INSIDE (20 pages)

• Welcome & how to use the guide

• TRAIN & STATION PLAN — ticketing, platforms, onboard

strategies, and a metro/underground tip box

• ITINERARY TEMPLATES — daily rhythm, the "spoons" energy

budget, a fill-in daily planner, the 2-1-2 trip structure
