If you are looking for a good deal on travel this summer -- there are some places that are sale due to the economy!
1. Maui - is the cheapest it has been in years due to the failure of Aloha airlines and the decline in high end travel. It is still not the cheapest trip but if you are planning a honeymoon or something special - it is worth checking out.
2. Vancouver - With the US dollar being up - going to Canada you get a 20% increase in the value of the dollar. Vancouver has excess rooms - that are built for the 2010 Olympics.
3. New York City - Hotels have lowered their rates 20%. Check out the Statue of Liberty, Battery Park, Ellis Island and the Chelsea gallery.
4. Smoky Mountains - As the summer lingers on - rental prices will come down. The border of Tennessee and North Carolina will have the best deals. The Smoky Mountains have over 800 miles of trails. As well as white water rafting, bird watching, waterfalls and many animals to admire.
5. Alaska Cruise - Prices are down almost 50%. A seven day cruise in June on Celebrity is $499 a person vs $899 last year. Alaska has so many unique features that you can experience on the luxury of a cruise ship. Glaciers, bears, bald eagles, small towns untouched by commercialism. Hiking, kayaking, snorkeling, are just a few of the adventures that await you.
If these trips are out of your price range - check out local day trips in your area. There are so many interesting things in our own backyards that we rarely take advantage of. More than anything take the time to smell the roses and enjoy each and every day.
Stay tuned........
