Was that a guided backpacking tour? Why would you get up at 6am (unless you like that)? Wait, how much planning beforehand went into that if you changed locatio

  The early starts were either to get to the next place or cram many sightseeing things into one day. The tours were organised by a company.

    Mhm, I figured. My travelling is usually more like the hanging-out-somewhere kind. If you have a return ticket to a place, your visa and safety information (eg what not do to in order not to die) in place (and are not trying to go someplace small in peak season!) that's usually all you need. A guidebook is nice-to-have too, because there is a map and information about the country and language. Sometimes you get stranded somewhere for longer than you'd like, sometimes you cannot find food (arriving too late or not in shop distance), you might miss some sights.. but that's fine.
