Holiday on a Budget

What do you do when you are about to make a trip overseas? If you're like me, then you'd probably check everything out online first. I don't like surprises.

Recently, I had the opportunity to help my friend plan for her honeymoon. The challenge was her low budget, so most of our decision we made based on how much we can save.

We turned to HotelReservations.com. First of all, they have a large network of hotels all over the world. As my friend hasn't decided which country she would love to visit, we managed to get a low-down on what hotels are available in America, Europe and even Asia. We were assured that when we make a booking, we will be able to get a discount.

My friend believes that apart from the air tickets, accommodation will be eating a large chunk of her budget, so the rebate coupon offered by HotelReservations will come in very handy indeed. For 12-night
Hotel Reservations, she will receive a $100 rebate. This is a great way to stretch her dollar.

They have great vacation packages that could save my friend up to 70%. But first, my friend has to decide what type of vacation she is looking for. Does she need a car? Does she want to visit one or two cities? When will departure be? Of course all these will determine the price of her package.

However, after looking at the various activity packages available at discount prices, my friend was confused on which to package to pick. Of course, if she has the budget, she won't be this confused!

Luckily HotelReservations has a 24 hour customer support to help answer her questions. My friend's fear of charging her credit card online was also unfounded as HotelReservations has a credit card guarantee and a good privacy policy in place.
