Let’s Plan Our Holiday

One thing that many people forget about whenever they are looking for a deal are the private sales.  There are many different websites that offer up exclusive sales and all you need to do is make sure that you sign up with your e-mail address.  These websites are also a great way for you to know when the deals are coming up.

That way, you can actually plan your vacation around the deals.  Finding the right travel deals is not all that hard; all it takes is a little patience, which is something that many people do not have.  Personally, I compare at least five different websites before I book anything at all.

There are deals out there, you just have to make sure that you find them and sign up for the deals.

Now that you have picked your destination, let’s go ahead and move onto some more tips for saving money whenever you are traveling on spring break.  One thing that you need to keep in mind is the time that you are traveling.  You always want to make sure that you travel in early or late spring, as school-aged children and college students are back in still.

Mid-March is not a good time to go, as that is definitely one time that most of the hotel rates as well as a lot of the airlines raise up their prices.  You also want to make sure that you do your research.  Ensuring that you research airline rates is the best way to find the best deal.

Looking online for some of the airline fares is a fantastic way to comparison shop!

Spring break is almost here and if you have been looking forward to spring and spring break, I have some fantastic news for you – spring break vacation discounts!  In this day and age, money is something that everyone is trying to save and when you are trying to go on vacation, it can be difficult to save money.

That is what we are here for though, to help you save some cash!  In the next few blogs, we are going to go over exactly how you can save some cash on spring break vacations!  By far – one of the first things you need to get a handle on is the destination.

To be perfectly honest, picking a destination is hard, but if you find a destination outside of the US – you will likely find cheaper flights and hotel rooms.

If NYC is not somewhere that you would want to go for V-Day, there is another destination that is sure to knock the socks off of your girl or guy – that is Cancun.  To be perfectly honestly, Cancun is one of those places that is not only beautiful in the winter, but it is definitely beautiful right around Valentine’s Day – because of the sun, fun and of course the views!

The hotels are incredible in Cancun and there are so many activities that you and your sweetheart can do, you will never, ever get bored!  You can lay out on the beach, swim in the ocean or even just chill out in some of the luxury hotels that are littered everywhere around Cancun.

This sums up some of our top vacation spots for Valentine’s Day, so make sure that you log online and book yourself an awesome vacation!

Now that we have talked about going to Venice – let’s go ahead and talk about another place that is getting hot and heavy for Valentine’s Day and that is New York.  Think about it – New York City actually has some of the best places to go whenever you are looking to get out of town for the weekend and spend some money on your sweetheart.

New York City has some of the best restaurants in the world and if you are looking just to even get away one night – why not book at some of the best hotels in the world?  They are all located in NYC of course!  They have everything from the Marriott all the way to the W, both of which are beautiful, beautiful properties!

If you want luxury and a beautiful weekend that will surely blow your sweetheart’s expectations out of the water, make sure that you go to NYC!

Valentine’s Day is a time that you need to not just think about the person that you are with, but you need to do something special for them.  Taking them on a vacation is a fantastic way to impress them and make sure that they know how special they are to you.  In this blog, we are going to talk about some of the greatest Valentine’s Day holidays for you to take!

One of the first places that you should take your sweetheart this February is Venice.  There are a ton of different things that you can do in Venice and certainly a lot of different hotels that you can stay at – specifically, the Grande Albergo Ausonia & Hungeria – that one is my favorite.

Remember, add in some spa services, breakfast in bed and take the long weekend off to celebrate your love!

Here’s a hot destination that might surprise you: Svalbard, which is in Norway. Norway is an amazingly rich country, and its Cold Coast is overflowing with the mystery of dark fjords and ancient legends. There are polar bear tours and an amazing number of outdoor and snow based sports.

Or, if you prefer warmer climates on your holidays, there is always Hawaii’s world renowned Big Island. Active volcanoes, exquisite beaches, and fewer crowds than you might imagine in many locations, this is a great place to relax.

Or heck, why not try a very far reaching destination and head to Tasmania? The Bay of Fire is little known but enormously relaxing — and enormously beautiful. Tucked away as it is, you will never have a dreamier vacation.

China is another hot spot this year. Specifically, Yunnan, China, is shaping up to see one of those places that you absolutely just have to see. If Yunnan seems familiar to you, it may well because because the famed Tiger Leaping trek has its home there — that is where the legend began. Visitors to Yunnan can also enjoy plenty of tours of the jungle, not to mention rich, incredible landscapes that offer glimpses of ancient temples and charming towns. You never know what to expect here!

Or how about two of the main islands in Columbia, the islands of Providencia and San Andres? Forget what you think you know about Columbia, because these two islands are gorgeous, tourists are welcomed with open arms, and there are so many ways to relax you won’t ever want to leave.

The year 2010 should be all about adventure and experiencing new things, especially when it comes to travel. It is a brand new decade, after all, so why not familiarize yourself with some of the hottest holiday destinations of the new year, pick your favorite, make your plans, and book your flight?

Languedoc, in France, has to be high up there on the list. This is where to go in France if you do not want to deal with all the tourists, not to mention all the modernization that has taken place in the country because of all the tourism.

Languedoc is a charming, wonderfully hidden spot with quaint hotels, lots of find dining, and even some fantastic cruise opportunities.

Finally, we have come to our last destination and I can tell you for sure that I am very, very excited about this one.  El Chalten, Patagonia is one place that while your cell phone won’t work and the town has a very limited availability, you will find that this particular town is worth the wait – and worth booking in advance.

El Chalten, Patagonia is one of the few places that have incredible hiking right in the Parque Nacional Los Glaciares and is actually a UNESCO World Heritage site, which in and of itself is something beautiful … and awesome.

If you are an avid hiker and looking to take the ultimate hike, El Chalten, Patagonia is the place you should be.
