The Ultimate Cheap Vacation Blow-Out For Single Men Arrives In Summer 2009
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
Without question the current economic climate has made summer 2009 the ultimate cheap vacation season for single men, in the last thirty years.
If you are a single man and have been wanting to travel and take a vacation, this summer is your time to do it because prices are at their all time lowest in the last three decades.
You can now travel to places in Europe, Asia and Latin America for a month on a budget of two thousand dollars or less. Keep reading and you will discover the few quick steps which make this possible.
Booking Your Flight
Airlines are offering huge discounted prices on their flights. And if you plan a month or so ahead of time you will reap huge benefits in the form of economic airfare.
To maximize your vacation savings and get the cheap deals possible, speak with your local travel agent for deals on plane fairs. If you prefer to stay in a hotel and rent a car speak with your travel agent about package deals.
Once you have airfare prices or your package deal price then go online to your favorite online travel agent, such as Travelocity, and compare their prices and package offers to the one you got from your travel agent. Feel free to use the online prices to negotiate a better rate from your local travel agent.
Where To Stay
Consider renting a house or apartment instead of lodging at a hotel. Hotels charge a daily rate, have additional taxes and most don't offer the option of a refrigerator and kitchen.
Today, many countries through Europe, Asia and Latin America are home to rentable houses and apartments. These neat places are usually secure, centrally located, come with Internet connection and fully functioning kitchen.
In most places you can rent a great pad of your own for a month at the same cost of staying in a hotel for a week. Plus you get the added bonus of discretion and privacy. In many hotels you have to sign in your guests, if you find or have a lady friend who is coming to your room she will have to sign in at a hotel. But when the place is yours there is no one to pry into your business at the front desk.
Your own house or apartment saves you money on lodging and it saves you money on food. Even if you don't want to do any heavy cooking, you can save money on light meals, drinks and snacks. Keep your fridge stocked with sandwich foods, your favorite beverages and cookies, crackers, fruits, nuts etc. You will save a bundle by doing this and it makes entertaining guests easier as well.
Where To Go
For the really cheap vacation packages you want to look at countries in Asia, Former Soviet Union, the Caribbean and Latin America. Not all places are equal in price or what they offer.
First find one, two or three countries you like the most. Locations where there they offer activities which match your appetites. Then pick the city within the country you will be traveling to.
From there begin to gather some information about the local culture, find where ads are posted for rental homes and apartments. Call the hotels and get an idea of cab fares, exchange rate for currency and cost of rooms.
Call a few local tour operators and ask about the activities offered and the rates.
Also ask about the local prices of basic foods such as bread, eggs and milk. Then get an idea of the cost of car rentals.
The places I personally recommend for single males to adventure in and get killer deals on cheap vacation options are (the list below is not in any particular order or ranking):
1) Costa Rica
2) Venezuela
3) Cuba
4) Dominican Republic
5) Colombia
Getting Around On Your Vacation
Look at cab fairs and the dissonance from where you are staying to the places you would like to visit, i.e. local beaches, museums, day tours and adventure tours. You may realize you are better off paying for cab rides than renting a car.
In many places like Costa Rica and Colombia it is usually cheaper to pay for the taxi rides. And in Cuba car rental is so cheap you are better off renting a car if you plan on touring through the country.
Meeting The Local Women
If you are thinking of meeting some fun and exciting local women while on your vacation you should start right now. The best way to do this is by using the concept of dating globally while searching locally.
Basically this means you search from your local computer at home for the dates in the global destination you will be taking your vacation to.
Use free sites such as Facebook or Myspace to meet foreign women who match your tastes and style. Build up a friendship and let them know when you are coming.
You will be blown away by the overwhelming positive response you get. You will have offers from your new lady friends to pick you up at the airport. To take you out everyday, dates of all kinds and excellent adventures already lined up and waiting for you to get there.
