How do you book your holidays? Are you somebody who likes to visit a high street travel agent to make a booking? Some people do still take this approach, but many more have decided that the best way to get discount holiday deals is to make bookings online.
This certainly seems to make sense. After all, internet travel agents are likely to have lower overheads than their high street rivals. That's because they don't have to spend a lot of money on premises and sales staff costs. But there are a number of problems with making a holiday booking, whether you choose to do so in a shop or via the internet.
One of the biggest problems is that you'll often have relatively little idea as to what you'll be getting for your money. You may be making a booking based on a hotel photograph, an official hotel rating and a brief description about the accommodation or resort.
Given the amount of money that you'll be spending, this seems like a surprisingly small amount of information to be using to make your decision. Things may be easier, of course, if you're returning to a resort or hotel that you've previously visited. But what if this is about to be your first visit?
This makes things much more difficult, particularly since you'll struggle to get much objective information from most online travel agents. They're main motivation is, after all, to encourage you to book a holiday. So what can you do?
Fortunately, there are some good solutions to be found online. One of the great benefits of the internet is that we now have access to far more information that we would once have imagined could be possible.
When booking a holiday, it means that we have access to independent reviews. We can use sites like Trip Advisor to see what previous guests have thought about the accommodation provided in particular hotels. You can use this independent information to guide you when making a booking.
The very best online travel companies are even prepared to provide information on these reviews on their own sites, making it much easier for you to make an informed decision.
