HOTELS
Eyeing that fancy hotel that you have always dreamt of? It is about time you gave yourself a little treat – and you do not always need to spend an exorbitant amount either.
Try booking tickets months in advance and avoid the holiday seasons. Hotels such as the Hilton Worldwide even gives its members exclusive discounts when you book directly as a Hilton HHonors member (membership is free). In fact, last year alone, more than 1.6 million free nights went unearned because guests did not book directly with the hotel!
ACTIVITIES
It is always best to plan your itinerary prior to arriving at your destination to ensure you are making the most of your time abroad.
