Save Money on Your Trip to Europe (This Post Sponsored by Eurobookings.com)
Travel experts expect prices for European vacations to be considerably more expensive for Americans this summer than they were last year. The Wall Street Journal featured an article on the topic this week. Even Conde Nast Traveler, which usually focuses on glitzy getaways, highlights their "Great-Value Vacations," which includes tips on saving money when you stay in Brussels.
Part of the increase is related to the dollar/euro exchange rate, which translates to relatively high prices for food, lodging, and sightseeing in Europe, as well as full (and therefore expensive) flights to the States as Europeans flock here for the bargains.
Some travelers are responding by changing their plans -- going to, say Mexico, rather than on the longed for trip to Tuscany. Others are signing up for package deals (European cruises are particularly popular) that help cut costs. Still others are scaling back on their expectations and settling for either less pricey cities or more modest accommodations.
We don't think you need to do any of this. If you've always dreamed of visiting the City of Lights, do it! But first, click over to Eurobookings.com to make your European hotel reservations. The site provides hundreds of hotels to chose from in places like Paris, Amsterdam, and London. Visitors can easily sort by closest airport, city, the hotel's star rating (e.g. 5 stars, 4 stars, etc.) and more. Can't stay in a place without an Internet connection or in a room where someone has been smoking? The site's search feature let's you specify these details, too. Best of all their rates are often lower than other online hotel booking services.
