5 Tips To Plan The Perfect Holiday in 2020

It’s never too early to plan the perfect holiday, and the start of a new year is the best time to do it. Planning a trip means you’ll have something to look forward to. 

Picture yourself on a beach somewhere sipping on cocktails or exploring new destinations you haven’t been to before. 

A fantastic holiday doesn’t happen overnight. Research and planning are essential to make sure that everything goes as smooth as possible.

Plan the perfect holiday in 5 simple steps:

1. Set Your Travel Goals

What do you want to do during your holiday? Do you want to see the mountains or explore a big city? Perhaps you’d like to be adventurous or experience the wildlife. Do you want to have a relaxing time at the beach and try some delicious exotic cuisines? Determining your goal will help you as you go through the next stages of planning

2. Choose the destination

Look for places where you can fulfil your travel goals. Choose your top 3-5 sites and start listing what each destination has to offer. Don’t overwhelm yourself by thinking you have to pinpoint a destination in the first step. Read online reviews and get insights from people you know who have been in the area. Consider other factors such as budget, the season that you’ll be travelling, and all the pros and cons to narrow it down to the perfect destination.

3. Set a reasonable budget

Setting a reasonable budget will help you manage expectations and decide what things are non-negotiable. An essential tip for planning the perfect holiday is to research the best deals. There are dozens of apps and websites where you can compare travel and accommodation costs as well as booking local activities in advance for a fair rate.

4. Choose dates wisely

If you have the chance to choose your travel dates and not rely on the school schedule and holidays, it’s best to avoid peak season. Airline tickets tend to spike around the end of the year and public holidays so its best to schedule your travels around these times. Plan enough time for a perfect holiday to enjoy your destination and relax while also enjoying fun activities. Tip: Check the best months to travel before booking – weather can be the deciding factor!

5. Sort out practical things as early as possible.

  • Make arrangements for someone to watch your home, or your pets while you’re away.
  • Call your credit card company to get information on international usage
  • Make copies of travel documents
  • Make time to get everything you need for the trip, such as weather-appropriate clothing and medication.

Planning the perfect holiday is exciting, but it can also be overwhelming. Following the steps above will help you to plan an epic holiday this year!
