South East Asia Travel Files: Thailand Spotlight

Imagine, the South East Asia bug finally sneaking into your living room. It has already done several rounds at my place. Consider visiting Thailand. Going on a vacation to Thailand is not a fancy anymore. With cheap web fares at travel sites like CheapOair, Kayak, Cheapflights and others, we can easily hook up a good deal.

But the question remains. When to visit? Is there a best time? There might be some difference of opinions, but the finally it's your call, meaning your interests decides the season. Usually, Thailand experiences three main seasons- the hot and humid, the wet and the cold.

If you're into trekking, you'll most definitely want to avoid the period from March to June, i.e the hot season. This is also the time when hotel rates soar sky high.

If you want to save money, travel during the wet season, i.e July to November. The heat and humidity is ruthless, which is enough reason why hotels are empty and price drop is the order of the day. You don't mind taking five showers a day to save extra bucks. do you?

The cold season? Like everywhere else, in Thailand too, winter sneaks in December and lasts until February. Hell freezes over around this time. This is only Thailand! There's plenty of snowfall and ice-skating is what you'll be doing all day. Be sure to pack your winter jackets, boots, gloves and scarves. I just bought a halloween scarve, which I'm planning to use in Thailand this winter!

Top Family Vacation Destinations this Summer: Williamsburg, VA

"School's out for summer!" That's what everyone is saying. If you've already decided where to go with the family, then happy travels! But if you're planning something last minute, let's play around some ideas.

Theme parks alone might be a passe for you. But theme parks coupled with history is just unputdownable! If you're toying with the idea of exposing the kids to some of the finer and older aspects of the country, then Williamsburg is just right for you.

Williamsburg, VA is one of those charming places where you can enjoy a journey back in time. At Busch Gardens Europe it's like experiencing the European culture right in your backyard! What's more, here, the kids will enjoy the world's tallest dive coaster and the world's tallest inverted coaster.

You won't miss Jamestown Settlement, Virginia Living Museum and Water Country USA. If you haven't heard about Water Country, let me take the opportunity to introduce one of America's Best Water Parks, bringing back all the excitement '50s and '60s beach scene in form of over 35 super-soakin' rides and slides! An interesting aspect of the park is that it's handicap accessible. Motorized and non-motorized wheelchairs are available at Guest Services for a daily rental fee.

Top Family Vacation Destinations II

Alright!! We're good to go with Paris. We know that off-season saves us plenty of $$$$$, plus it remains free form the tourist hordes. It's easier to book hotels and we find plenty of cheap airfares. Most online travel sites offer airfare discounts, but I found some great travel deals at Cheapoair. They have top travel deals year round. I bet these are incredible!!

So what lies next in the line? Something domestic? Maybe! How about a family break in Orlando?? America's beloved Orlando is a BIG hit for family vacationers around the world. Who can resist Disneyland!! Mickey Mouse & Co are household names, no? But it can really burn a hole down the pocket, especially with theme parks charging adult fees for kids who have just turned 10!! The expenses might leave you with eyes popping out, but there are tricks to save the big money.

Yes, you don't really have to be a high roller for your kids to have a slice of Orlando. There are several ways of doing this on a budget.

The first thing is to save as much as you can on airfare. Book in advance, do it off season, go for the lowest fares, be flexible with dates, fly on off-peak days and hours...do whatever it takes!!

The next big savings is going to be on hotels and car rentals. All inclusive vacations packages really help a lot here. But remember to compare prices all inclusive vis a vis cheap airfare, hotels, car rentals and food taken seperately. See what fits you best and book accordingly.

While you're in Orlando, always grab the Seasons Passes available for entry into Theme Parks. All theme parks offer seasons' passes, which give you the edge. The cost for such passes is almost equal to the price of two days' admission. But the advantage of these passes is that they offer unbelievable discounts on food, shopping, free parking, early entrance and plenty of other benefits. Without a pass, you have to pay 100 percent for every lip smacking cuisine which you may want to gorge on, you don't get discounts when you go shopping...So, next time when you're doing a theme park, always go for Seasons passes. You'll save a fortune!!

To be contuinued...

Cheap Vacations all the Way!

Hello, today I found a new blog, publishing a special series on Spring Airline Travel. Flabbergasting! The fares seem very low. It has some pretty good tips for honeymooners and couples traveling to the Caribbean.

It seems to me that the entire Caribbean is on SALE! It looks very budget oriented. But can I book? Not this time, Not again! I've been running low on cash recently. Whatever I stashed up last year is there somewhere making rounds in Rio de Janeiro. I spent up everything in the Carnival. Can CheapoAir do me a favor? Why not start a debit/credit program for me? I can't travel even with cheap airfares!

It's been 7 years since I slept on a hammock while sipping cocktail. The kids are going into the teens two years from now. I guess, that's going to be my time. A welcome-to-the-teens treat for my kids ain't a bad idea!!

FYI, the blog which I've been talking about all the while goes here:

All my best for those who're taking off for a vacation this spring!
