How to plan the best vacation trip abroad 🛫

And just like that, 2024 is halfway gone! This means that for about six months now, you’ve been hard at work, making ends meet and contributing your time and effort to make society work, one way or another.

So, you’ve been planning a vacation trip abroad as a reward for your efforts so far but you don’t know from where to begin? Well, let me help you! Let’s look at 4 quick tips to help you plan the best vacation trip abroad 👇🏾

💸 Plan the financials well

The success or failure of a holiday or vacation trip abroad can very often depend heavily on how well you plan the financials. And, many factors can come into play and affect your financial plan, making it harder to achieve the goals you set out. One of such factors is inflation!

You can plan against inflation for your vacation by saving for your trip in a strong, inflation-proof currency like dollars. To do this, for example, you can use the Cenoa App where you also earn up to 5% yield on your dollar savings.

Your financials should cover every possible cost to be expected on the trip and factor in slight increases for possible seasonal changes and do yourself the favour of saving in a strong currency, like the dollar.

🔎 Do your research

It is not enough to have an idea of where you want to go for your vacation. You should also know well enough what it takes to go there both in terms of cost and general planning.

Research is important for these types of trips. Ask questions, try to learn as much as you can from the experiences of others who have gone to these places and understand the dos and don’ts of vacationing in these places. Proper research will help prepare you for your trip both mentally and financially.

💳 Pay for the things you can ahead of time

If you can, pay for things like your flight ticket & hotel or residential fees way ahead of time so you can take advantage of lower prices and avoid the impact of inflation or seasonal price hikes. Paying for things like this ahead gives you the opportunity to get the most value for your money and get the most out of your trip without spending needlessly.

👥 Travel with company

One sure way to get the best out of your holiday trip is to make the trip with friends. Friends make everything better and going on vacation in the company of your friends will do wonders for you and even help you save more money overall.
