SkyScanner

My favorite way of searching for flights. I love their “Explore Everywhere” feature, which is great if you don’t have a set location in mind! You can also search by months to see which date ranges are the cheapest!

Visit Site

Tripadvisor

I will not book a hotel without reading the Tripadvisor reviews first! You can even search by keywords if you are trying to find out something specific about the hotel, like what their pool is like!

Visit Site

Booking.com

My favorite website for booking hotels. I always find the cheapest rooms through Booking. Plus, they offer incredible cancellation policies and often let you pay at the hotel instead of when you book!

Visit Site

Viator

This is my favorite site to use when booking activities and transportation for my trips! You can read reviews from others who did the activity, and they have great payment and cancellation policies!

Capital One Credit Card

If a Capital One credit card isn’t in your wallet, you’re missing out! But seriously, I have TWO Capital One credit cards – the Venture and the Venture X. It is the best travel credit card to maximize every day savings and earn credit card points that are so easy to use on flights, hotels, and more!
