Typically, our vacations last for at most two weeks – thanks to busy working schedules and limited paid vacation days – but there are many time when we’d wish to spend at least a month on the road, experiencing incredible cities and excellent cuisines. Take the Road to Marrakech for 29 days and pay $3,930 per person.
Shorter vacations are excellent choices as well
Vacations tend to average a week and there are good reasons for that. Many of us don’t have the luxury to travel for long or our jobs don’t allow it. But there’s a good part as well: shorter vacations are cheaper and always discounted during the low season.
If you want to spend time checking out the French country side, you can get up to 45% off on France vacations and you can even mix two days on Cote d’Azur with two days in the Bordeaux region.
If you want to go to Africa, there are other choices than Morocco. For example, you can stay in Egypt for 10 days for prices starting at $649 per person or you can choose a discounted adventure vacation in the same area.
Visiting the Christmas Markets
By mid-late November, numerous Christmas Markets open in various cities around Europe. Some of the famous ones can be found in Vienna, Prague and Munich. If you are waiting for a good reason to visit Europe, now you’ve got it.
You can easily create your own vacation package. Look for flights to Europe and decide what city to fly into. You might want to fly into a major hub such as London or Paris and then choose low-cost flights to travel on the continent.
Once the flights are secured, it’s time to figure out the accommodation. Remember that this time of the year is high season in Europe, especially in the above mentioned cities. For example, you can find affordable hotels in Prague , especially since the city has taken quite a hard hit from the economic crisis and the hotel rates went down sharply. In Vienna and Munich it’s a good idea to look for private rooms in hostels .
Depending on your budget, you can plan to spend at least 3 days in each city. The Christmas market in Vienna opens in mid-November so you can get here early, beat the crowds and get the souvenirs. The one in Munich opens on the first Friday of December, while the one in Prague runs through the entire month of December.
