For destination weddings, do people expect activities planned?

My partner and I are getting married in his home country (so half of the guests will be local) but have my side mainly coming from overseas. A friend casually mentioned something in passing like “oh I’m sure you guys will have activities planned” and made me wonder if that was normal or what she may have meant?

EDIT: thank you all for this!! I think we’re going to organize some kind of tour for people the day before the wedding :)
