Planning a trip has always been a headache as much excited we be. Where to go, how to go, what to do and how to do it! Having to take care of everything, we sometimes end up with the wrong plan and end up compromising on more than one factor.

Subramanya Sharma, CMO, Cleartrip, gives you the step by step plan to enjoy the best holiday getaway ever!

1. Fix the budget- This is one of the most important part which many often underestimate. After you have fixed the budget that suits you the most, there are more than enough options on the destinations and accommodations without compromising on the quality, even if it is a low budget.

2. Location- The next critical thing is choosing a location.

3. Activities- With the travel window becoming smaller with respect to days, people unwind in different activities and book activities rather than packages. Activities can even make a 2-3 day vacation more memorable than long trips.

4. Travel ticket Bookings- Book tickets well in advance, 60 day window is the best time to book as prices are the best in terms of flights. If there is no flight component, it is easier. One can spend more on hotels or activities.

5. Hotel- Choosing the perfect hotel has always been a task.

“If you are going on a leisure trip pick a hotel which is not in the middle of the town. If you are the one who like going places, staying around popular tourist destinations is important as you do not have to worry about the travel and finding a hotel.”

After deciding on this, look for reviews.

“Hotels with 20-30 reviews is a good filter.”

While booking, watch out for sales from online travel companies or airlines. Don’t make this last minute.
