Before you plan your next trip, let's talk about how you can find the best deals out there--and it's not through a simple internet search!
When you're planning your next vacation, you can type in your travel destination and trip details into any search bar, and return pages upon pages of results. However, it's likely that the best deals are going to be buried deep down, and you'll need to pick through lots of different results to find something that works. Rather than scrolling 4 or 5 pages down, try searching travel sites like Sherman’s Travel or TravelZoo, or even destination specific sites, like ChooseChicago.com.
Also known as aggregation deal sites, these urls have a full edit staff who are actively looking for the best deals and itineraries that main search engines might not return on a basic search.
One of our favorite aggregators is Dunhill Travel Deals, which offers their members free access to the latest top travel values, exclusive spotlight offers, and more. Their site allows you to browse by destination and vacation type to help you find the perfect deal quickly and easily. On the home page, under vacations and cruises, search results are dynamic--meaning they are updated in real time, which makes comparison shopping easy to do since it’s all in one place. It saves you from performing separate searches on every hotel or cruise site separately, and gives you many ways to search and browse. Dunhill currently has over 11 million subscribers in the US and Canada. Their members have free access to special coupon codes, exclusive deals,and limited time offers. There’s every destination you can imagine, for all types of travelers. Pet Friendly destinations, luxury vacations, budget travel, family trips, you name it.
Also check out their “Last Minute” page, with a list of offers that range from quickly expiring deals to getaways that depart in the next week or two. Hotels and cruises don’t always sell out to capacity, which means prices can drop substantially at the last minute.
We've also located a great deal on the site--watch for details on the 6 Day Journey of Discovery to Historic Eastern Ireland, an area rich with history and ancient castles and abbeys. The jam-packed itinerary includes time to explore everything from the wilderness of the Wicklow Mountains to the heritage of ancient Kilkenny...you’ll get up close and personal with castles and abbeys in the region, learn about the history of Ireland’s emigration and of course, visit the stately house of Waterford Crystal.
That’s it for this week’s WeHear--follow us on Instagram and YouTube for more travel news, notes, and deals.
