Bottled mostly. We have brita water bottles for days at theme parks, on flights, etc.

If I'm somewhere domestic and I'm going to be there for a few days I get groceries delivered to my hotel and get a case of water.

We only drink Acqua di Cristallo.

If it tastes weird then fine.

It sounds like some posters just don't even try. That's wasteful.

How often do you visit that town you can’t even name, though? Is it a regular thing? Have family there?

Tap 95%...a couple of places we hated the taste but it is not typical.

Tap water. Municipal sourced water are regulated and checked regularly otherwise we’ll have a mass outbreak of some kind from drinking water.

Tap. If for some reason the water quality was in question, or didn't taste good, I guess I would get gallon bottles to refill the reusable water bottles.

Depends on how the tap water tastes and the nature of the travel but often I’ll just buy water bottles in bulk wherever I am upon arrival.

I buy bottled. I know tap is safe, but tap water tastes different everywhere and I can never get used to it.

In the US, we always just drink from the tap. It has never occurred to me to buy bottled water when I travel in the US. Also, the safety of tap water is much more regulated in the US than of bottled water, which has very few regulations on it.

In the US or other countries with clean water, we bring reusable water bottles & fill them up at hotel taps, water bottle refill stations in museums, etc. In places without safe tap (eg, many countries in Central America), we buy bottled water.

As most people got judging by their answers, I'm trying to balance taste (prefer bottled) with environment and finances (tap would win). And I'm curious which way most people go. I travel a lot when you add up both work and personal travel (adds up to about 3-4 months every year).


So make your own decision. Who cares what random internet strangers do.
