If you fancy going on holiday this Christmas, there are loads of options to choose from. It can be a great way to get away from the stress of obligations in the festive period – no extended family dinners or forced Christmas jumper-wearing fun. If you’ve not been away in a while, it’s also a gift to yourself: a break from the day-to-day, at the most joy-filled time of year.
Packages are the best way to take a cheap Christmas holiday without losing out on amenities or fun. Here’s how to find a great deal for your last-minute vacation. Book as late as you dare This is easier for single travellers and couples, but if you have the guts, set aside your travel dates and then wait.
And wait. And finally, book your holiday at the last minute a day or two before you travel. It’s risky – but often means snagging fantastic deals in fancy hotels that simply need to fill their rooms over the holiday season.
Use websites like LastMinute, Expedia, and Booking.com to keep an eye on packages with last-minute offerings. Be packed and ready, pick your desired destination, and then go on an adventure at short notice! There can be something very liberating about not having loads of time to make plans ahead of the holiday, so embrace the spontaneity.
Just make sure your passport is in date! Consider rail travel While rail tickets are extortionate in the UK, when you head abroad they are surprisingly affordable. When looking to get away for Christmas, take a look at destinations you can.
