Planning Activities

  • To plan and book activities for your holiday, you have several options depending on your destination, preferences, and the type of activities you’re interested in. Here are some popular platforms and methods that we use when planning our trips.

1. Online Activity Booking Platforms:

  • Viator: Viator is a leading online platform offering a wide range of tours, activities, and experiences in destinations around the world. From guided sightseeing tours and adventure activities to culinary experiences and skip-the-line tickets for attractions, Viator provides a comprehensive selection of options.
  • GetYourGuide: GetYourGuide is another popular platform offering a diverse array of tours and activities, with a focus on providing unique and immersive experiences. Travelers can browse through curated collections or search for specific activities by destination, category, or theme.
  • Klook: Klook specializes in offering activities, tours, and travel experiences across Asia and beyond. From theme park tickets and cultural tours to wellness retreats and transportation services, Klook provides convenient booking options and exclusive deals for travellers.

2. Destination-Specific Websites:

  • Many destinations have their own official tourism websites or local tour operators that offer a range of activities and sightseeing options.
  • These websites often provide detailed information about attractions, tours, and events in the area, along with booking capabilities. For example, if you’re visiting Paris, you can check the Official Paris Tourism website for guided tours of landmarks like the Eiffel Tower or Louvre Museum.

3. Hotel Concierge or Tour Desks:

  • If you prefer personalized assistance or recommendations tailored to your interests, your hotel’s concierge or tour desk can be a valuable resource. 
  • Hotel staff are often knowledgeable about local attractions, activities, and tour operators, and can help you book excursions, transportation, or tickets to popular attractions.

4. Travel Agencies:

  • Traditional travel agencies or online travel agents can assist you in planning and booking activities for your holiday. Travel agents can offer personalized recommendations, package deals and itinerary planning services to ensure a seamless and memorable travel experience. 
  • Whether you’re interested in guided tours, outdoor adventures, or cultural experiences, a travel agent can help you find the right activities for your interests and budget.

5. Direct Booking with Activity Providers:

  • Some activities and tours can be booked directly with the tour operators or activity providers. This can be particularly beneficial if you have specific preferences or requirements, or if you prefer dealing directly with the source. 
  • Many tour operators have websites or online booking platforms where you can browse available options, check availability, and make reservations.

6. Mobile Apps:

  • Several mobile apps are available for booking activities and experiences on the go. Apps like TripAdvisor and Airbnb, offer convenient options for discovering and booking activities, reading reviews and accessing insider tips from fellow travellers. These apps often provide user-friendly interfaces and real-time booking capabilities, making it easy to plan your holiday itinerary from your smartphone or tablet.

By utilising these resources and platforms, you can efficiently plan and book activities for your holiday, ensuring a memorable and enjoyable travel experience filled with exciting adventures and unforgettable moments.

My Top Tips to help get the best deal!

  1.  Explore all booking sites  – Use my guide above for the different options, prices will vary for the same activity on different sites.
  2.  Loyalty Schemes – Really do take advantage of these, at the time the rewards may seem small but they soon add up to free days out or bigger discounts.
  3. Cashback – Use places like topcashback and quico to get a percentage back on your bookings.
  4. Coupons / Free days – Many place may offers certain discounts on different days, some may even be free at certain times of the day. Check ahead of your trip and plan you day accordingly. No one wants to pay a £50 entrance fee, only to find that it may have been free the day before.
  5. Concession Prices – Over 60, Military and Health Workers are just a few that might qualify, always check the website for the activity and see if anything applies to you.
