Turkey is the number one holiday destination this summer, largely due to the rising cost of the euro and as it?s not in the EEU. Other destinations that are popular are USA, the Far East and the not too far away Morroco. The reason these are good for travelling is that the exchange rate on the local currency is excellent.
When abroad it is possible to change money in banks and post offices. Banks are generally open from around 08.30 to 17.00 hours and the post office is generally open 0830 am to 12 noon so you should have no problems exchanging your travel money.
Make sure you check the terms and conditions and read your terms and conditions for extras. Many of the budget airlines now charge for meals on the flight. Instead of opting for an inflight meal, save yourself some money and pack a small packed meal, with things you like for a fraction of the price.
Ask if your transfers included or are they extra if you are arranging a self packaged holiday? If you are renting a villa privately make sure you check about air conditioning, sheets and linen, pool heating, ski lift passes. Find out all your extras before you go by asking this will save on packing the ?just in case? items or if you think you can take something from home instead of paying for it.
Check to see what activities are available before you go. You should check information out such as cost, time to get there, what age you have to be any restrictions and then plan around it. It may be worth planning these before you go, for example going to a water park.
You should also protect yourself from mosquitoes in the evening time. Sometimes you can?t see them and often just feel an itch after it has bitten from you. You can protect yourself from mosquitos with a range of lotions and potions available on the high street ? you should also check with your local chemist. If you are affected while on holiday you should take a trip to the chemist where they should be able to give you something to stop the swelling or itching.
