Want honest, reliable answers to some of your travelling queries?<br />
TripAdvisor is the 'site' to go to. With over 150 million customers'<br />
reviews that cover about four million hotels, attractions, flights and<br />
the likes, TripAdvisor provides insider knowledge on where and<br />
how to better spend your vacation. You can see what other<br />
travellers are saying about the location of interest based on the<br />
reviews and rankings of the hotels, restaurants and activities listed.<br />
Plus, you can drop your queries in their travel forum if you couldn't<br />
source answers elsewhere.<br />
Aside from enabling its users to plan, search and book<br />
for flights, hotels and cars, Yahoo! Travel has a travel<br />
guides section that provides detailed information with<br />
reviews, maps and pictures on more than 40,000<br />
cities and 500,000 places to stay across the world.<br />
The section covers almost everything; from the history<br />
of the place, culture, festivals, dining options, nightlife<br />
entertainment, sports, shopping to special attractions.<br />
It also contains maps, weather reports and currency<br />
converters of your selected destination to make<br />
planning a tad bit easier.<br />
Looking for travel deals? Expedia offers fabulous vacation deals<br />
on hotels, flights, car rentals and cruises. One unique feature<br />
about this site is that it allows users to book hotel, flight and car<br />
rental all at once under their bundle deals section. This saves the<br />
hassle, eh? Or if you would rather book things separately, you<br />
can still do the searches individually; leaving you with the option<br />
to bundle them up at the end to earn big savings. Expedia also<br />
provides a wide selection of activities such as concerts and plays<br />
you can purchase when booking your trip.<br />
On a tight travel budget? Try Priceline. This site allows<br />
its users to bid for flights, hotels and car rentals. All you<br />
have to do is just name a price. Priceline's Name Your<br />
Own Price tool works by determining the amount of<br />
money you want to pay for a selected hotel, flight or<br />
car rental. Then, wait to see if your offer is accepted.<br />
Just think of the money you will be saving! Biddings<br />
aside, Priceline also has extremely discounted special<br />
deals up for grabs.<br />
