Taking my iPhone 4s on holiday?

What should I do because I know you get charged a lot abroad?
My friend said take my SIM card out but then won't I lose all my photos, Etc
Also does switching to airplane mode the whole time work and then just using my hotels Wi-Fi?

Take out your sim card, no data is held on there, and keep it on airplane mode just to be safe. Photos, etc, are stored on your phones internal hard drive, not the sim card.

I already have an iPad iPhone laptop camera and iPod… And don't need anything else big or expensive like that!
  • What gadgets should I take on holiday? I want to take my ipad mini so I could play games and movies but didn't want to listen to music off it because I feel it's to big for around the swimming pool so I was going to take my iPhone but after using nearly every day for music I'm bored of it and so I had an iPod shuffle but without the cable so I was going to buy another one is it worth it, I go on holiday it a week so need to make decisions now
