We know it’s hard, but if you can book your summer vacation in June or September that will save you quite a bit of money. Otherwise you can, indeed YOU HAVE to book facilities or packages well in advance; yes, it’s risky but the price will be super affordable.
All the excursions, itineraries and destinations you would like to visit, you can book them already from Italy. For example, often on forums suchas tripadvisor you can find topics where travelers exchange information about local tour operators and locals who lend themselves kindly and at affordable prices to guide you. Look for them, contact them and book your excursions from here. Absolutely avoid those organized by hotels, resorts or large tour operators because they often have really exorbitant prices.
Also keep an eye on the exchange rate so you can buy the currency you’re interested in for your trip at a favorable rate and that’ll be another point to your advantage.
Consider booking apartments or B&Bs as well. They result in many famous sites such as airbnb or house exchange where you can find reviews about real estate and owners. In addition you can book beautiful and luxury apartments if you book in groups… the quota that will be very low.
Do not forget that in Italy you can take advantage of the many sites that provide coupons and discounts for example Groupon, Groupalia. We use them very often to book spas, restaurants, boat trips or weekends outside the door. And don’t forget that holidays or birthdays can be a great opportunity to receive Smartboxes as a gift; try to recommend it when you see friends and relatives a little undecided about what to give you at Christmas.
