Description
Everything you need to know before you hit wotif.com or call the travel agent. Why risk being ripped off? Never before have we been faced with so much choice when it comes to international travel. Deciding where to go and how to book travel is becoming increasingly complex and often travel books are overwhelming rather than helpful. Deciding on an overseas destination is the fun part. Booking it and getting the best deal for your dollar is harder. With the variety of information and providers available, it's not surprising we don't always get good value for money, and terrorism and safety factors have clouded decisions. Safety issues aside, our primary concern remains not being ripped off! The Travel Book will put you on the inside track and have you staying at ultra-luxury hotels like Raffles for a fraction of the advertised cost. Exploring the advantages and disadvantages of using travel agents, telling you when to book ahead and when to wait until you reach your destination and demystifying all of the new internet options. It's a lot to get your head around but Lisa Allen will make sure you are glad you did. With The Travel Book in hand, why not learn to drive your dollar further, impress your friends, and go now!
