I think it depends on where someone goes and for what reason. If we are out traveling the country whether enroute to a certain location or just wandering we will do whatever suits our taste in the area we happen to be in. That means it can be anything from an ordinary trip to the movies, check out a local restaurant or an interesting attraction.
We spend a lot of time at DH's hometown so we go for walks or bicycle rides along the lake but mostly we spend time with family there doing what they want to do. They are mostly elderly (more so than us!) so we go out to eat and play cards.
Most of the time we keep our lifestyle simple, doing the same stuff out and about as we do at home.
