Itineraries planning, the method

Itineraries planning, the method Writer and editor: Yair Bar-Zohar Date: 17.06.04 Introduction A trip could be an unforgettable and exciting experience. For the success of the trip, hikers and vacationers tend to bother about all of the many and important details. A trip is not a distance or a v mark contest. A trip is not measured by how much you managed to see, but by how much you managed to absorb, understand and to have fun. Therefore, take your time and walk leisurely, try to see and meet the local residents, and to learn about their culture and customs. Not once during the trip abroad, you run into unexpected problems, due to lack of experience and information, like differences in hours, pickpockets and crime areas, weather, as well as budget issues and much more. In order to avoid malfunctions and aggravation, you should prepare yourself some questions towards the trip, which through them you will be aware of your motivation, wills, capabilities or limi

Iron rules about renting a car

rented car abroad – Advantages: comfort, transportation from one place to another, freedom to travel independently, the option to stop at any time of the day, the option to reach places where public transportation doesn’t, cheaper (sometimes) than organized trip and public transportation. The profitability of renting a car rises when the number of passengers rises. It's very recommended (yet not mandatory) to work with international rental cars companies because they can solve any problem around the clock and they have a large variety of new cars. The only disadvantage is the high price. The price in local companies is quite cheap, but their downsize is that their service is not always available, so you'll need to check if the renting point is open at the time and day reserved. The advantages of the big/international (and known) renting companies: Deploying branches: when you're driving with the rented car and everything is fine, then there's no problem and

Buying a car abroad for an independent trip

Buying a car abroad for an independent trip Wrote and edited: Yair Bar-Zohar Date: 11.08.2004 This option is worthwhile only in The United States or Australia. It's pays off to buy a car only when the trip is above month. The calculation is made by the worst case scenario: It's worth buying a car even if you don’t sell it at all, because it will still be cheaper than renting a car for that time period. Its best to buy a car in south America and sell it in the north because it rains less in the south, the car will be less rusty and the north will appreciate it. You need to take in account that you must clear a few days of your trip in your origin city in order to look for a car, and to find a buyer in the end of it. In order to save some time, there are some garages that will assist you in checking the car before you buy and maybe find you a seller. The risk in this method is in case of a malfunction in the car, the trip will pause for a while because you

How to pick an organized trip?

How to pick an organized trip? Wrote and edited: Yair Bar-Zohar Date: 17.09.2004 The popular term "Organized Trip" usually refers to trips abroad, which is organized by the traveling agency and usually includes the route and all the trip's arrangements: flights, tickets, transportation, buses, hotels, meals and handling all of the administrative aspects of the trip. The organized trip is usually offered to the wide public, initiated by the trip's organizer, or it's ordered by a group of people asking from the organizer or a traveling agency to do the organizing for them. A big part of the organized trips are offered to the public through brochures specifying the different routes. Before you take a trip, make a comparison chart. Pick a trip with a guide that you have information and recommendations about him. Don’t be ashamed to ask the traveling agencies that. You should add an section to your contract with the traveling agency, that if the

A family trip abroad

A family trip abroad Wrote and edited: Yair Bar-Zohar Date: 20/09/2004 In order to plan a family trip abroad, it's very recommended to share everyone the trip's factors (including children or trip partners), and build a route according to what everyone wants to do/see/visit. Plan the trip for the children and don’t make it an adult's trip, with all that comes along. You should show the kids pictures and internet websites, and read with them interesting material about the destination. This is not an educational trip. For instance, visit some famous candy factories, plus children love museums where they can touch the exhibits and operate the, especially science, flight or space museums. Go to places where there are many attractions for them, like amusement parks, mini-golf, bowling, pool, etc. Let your kids have a part in decisions regarding their clothes, games and books that they like, because it will help their self esteem in an unfamiliar place

An Internet (virtual) traveling agent or a human traveling agent

An Internet (virtual) traveling agent or a human traveling agent Wrote and edited: Yair Bar-Zohar Date: 03.11.2004 Planning a trip requires reading books, observing at maps and sitting for hour in front of a computer. Browsing the web takes hours, weeks or even months to prepare for the trip. There are those who get much pleasure from this and even get added value in addition to the tips and tricks they have found. And then, we see those people around the world with the same pages printed from the internet, aside the trip books they have bought. As a part of the trip's planning, there is a need to order necessary services to build the route. Today, there is a big variety of internet agents that offer bids, that sometimes are even cheaper and better than what the traveling agents offer, and something that cause confusion and insecurity about what is the right thing to do. From my experience with these orders, I suggest some rules that will guide you in choosing which o

Money,Money,Money, how to save money

Money,Money,Money, how to save money Wrote and edited: Yair Bar-Zohar Date: 31.12.2004 You need to estimate your expenses in addition to the flight and hotel: food, public transportation, parks, and pick pocketing (sites you visit - museums, beaches, parks and more). Payment Traveler's checks – the safest method for the long trip. These checks have insurance against loss and theft (you must keep the receipt and the serial numbers – or else you won't get your money back). The recommended type of traveler's checks is the "Thomas Kock" which can be converted to cash at any agency or bank. The signature on the checks needs to be identical to the signature on the passport. Credit cards – not every location accept credit cards. It can be used as a voucher for many companies in case of a problem, and without a credit card you won't be able to make car rental, accommodations, and more. Also serves as a backup in case the cash or checks run out. Due to hig

Ordering regular flight tickets

Ordering regular flight tickets Wrote and edited: Yair Bar-Zohar Date: 30.07.2005 You need to do an extensive survey of all the airlines companies and choose the company that will bring you the best service + safety, in the cheapest price of the IATA (regular airlines companies union which deals with the commercial side of the flight). You're subjected to the limits of the flight tickets for each passenger (according to the age) + combining destinations (if there are) + port and security taxes + additions (if there are). For your information, the discounts given in the travelling agencies are for the flight ticket only and not for the taxes. A new concept in the flight ticket field is the "electronic card", which is a paper with a serial number on in, and it's issued when you order the tickets. An important recommendation: you should reserve a flight to the peak seasons at least 4 months in advance. 1. Usually, it doesn’t require cancelation payment. There

Ordering charter flight tickets

Ordering charter flight tickets Wrote and edited: Yair Bar-Zohar Date: 30.07.05 1. The charter companies operate special flights in periods where there is a big demand to destinations that don’t have regular flights by the airlines companies. At periods of decline, the charter companies operate fewer flights. 2. Minimum time staying aboard – 6 days minimum till 28 days maximum. The reason for that is that periods up to 28 days are acceptable as tour packages. 3. Ordering a flight in a charter company involves financial commitment since in case of a cancelation, the charter company charges you for cancelation payment and doesn’t consider the cause of the cancelation (sickness, hospitalization, death). It's important once you order the tickets, to know what's your cancelation payment schedule, from the minute you ordered till the day of the flight. 4. Charter flights that include packages ("deals"), are usually cheaper. 5. Airports that are used for charter

Should you order internal flights?

Should you order internal flights? Wrote and edited: Yair Bar-Zohar Date: 30.11.2005 It's not always a good idea to order short and internal flights. You need to take in account several things: 1.The cost of the flight and the trip to the airport. 2.The time it takes to drive to the airport, the time it takes to wait in the airport, the time it takes to get out of the airport, the time it takes to drive from the airport to your destination. The average time for all of the above is about 3-4 hours. 3.Internal flights are worthy only if the distance from your destination is large so the time that it takes to drive in a car or any kind of transportation takes a few days. This is also true about fast trains, the only difference is that the waiting time there is shorter than the airports. I recommend printing this article.
