My wife and I love to visit new places. We will generally prepare by asking friends who have visited what they liked and disliked, I would check the areas affiliated subreddit to get guidance from the locals, and do a little online searching to get a general feel for the city.
Once there don't be afraid to talk to people. Talk to a can driver, spark up a conversation at a cafe. Locals are almost always willing to share their favorite places with you since you're a visitor to their city and they want to shed it in the best light.
