Half Term Holidays - Wheres the best place to go in october and how to make sure its on a budget
By Spot Biddle
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.
Think about the destination before you go try to consider the exchange rate. If one is not good now it is unlikely to improve massively before your holidays. Places to go include turkey, USA, morocco and the far east which all have a better exchange rate and in turn more for your money.
It is safer to carry travellers cheques than cash or you can try credit cards but don�t use these to draw out money, similarly check with your own bank before you depart to see how much they will charge for getting money out abroad. If you are carrying travellers cheques make sure you leave a copy of the serial numbers with a trusted family member or friend with the telephone number for the country you are staying in that you would need to call in the event of losing them or them being stolen.
If you are thinking about renting a villa and you don�t have children simply avoid school holidays. If you do have to go in school holidays try not to go in the first 2 weeks as this is the busiest time of year and demand is at its highest. Try to go in June, early July or late September. This will make it cheaper plus if you have friends or family that have children you can get them to water the plants as they will not be able to go on holiday.
The sun is hotter and more powerful the closer you get to the equator. It is advisable to wear a high factor sun screen to protect yourself and your family from the harmful rays when you are on holiday, especially when it is cloudy as this is the time you are more likely to burn as you are not shading from the sun.
It is important to enjoy yourself on your holiday � just remember to take as much care as you would at home and not be reckless just because you are on your holiday, be sensible with the sea, pool, alcohol and valuables and you should have a stress free trip, you should also check you insurance before you go away to see what you are covered for.
