Hello everyone!
I recently started to travel a lot for tourism and I always don’t know how to properly get the info about the place I’m visiting.
I don’t like guided tours so I thought to use Wikivoyage but the articles are so reductive in comparison to what you can find on Wikipedia that unfortunately doesn’t have a TTS option.
What do you use then? How do you organize yourself?
It depends on a lot of things. Which part of the world? In Europe big cities all have the tourist part and the “old town” part. If you are there sightseeing just get a tourist map and start exploring.
You can usually get an equivalent of a tourist day tickets, which will give you unlimited access to public transport, sightseeing buses and some attractions/museums. Just pick up the one which tickles your fancy and usually you can get it from any airport, big train/bus station when you arrive.
If you are there to party and check out the night life I would strictly stick to popular spots.
For any other interests (hiking, historical spots, etc) you can find a city specific list of recommendations online.
Also it usually helps to google which tourist scams are popular in the region to avoid them.

The one tourist and one old town part isn’t true for Berlin though. As it used to be multiple towns fused together over time, there are multiple old towns (as long as they aren’t destroyed from the war), and quite a few touristic areas scattered all over the city.
Fair enough. I should add my comment is not universally true for all European cities but to be fair we still don’t know where OP is planning to go.
