Cheap Holidays to Spain

Hello, I'm Jason. We all need a holiday every now and then!  The most common problem with them however is the cost involved.  I'm going to try and help you around this as much as possible.


That's why I've created this special page, I recently came back from Spain and I spent an absolute fortune.  You never think you're going to spend as much as you do, so it's best to be well prepared.  I hope you find my tips helpful.


 

So, you want to go to Spain, but it can be quite expensive depending on where (and when) you’re looking. I’m going to give you some tips as how you can save hundreds on going! First of all, there is the most obvious point. Don’t book your holiday to Spain during peak times. This includes over Christmas and New Year and school holidays. It’s a simple point of the demand is much greater during these times so the holiday companies hike their price up, because they can

ChatYou can book a holiday during May and it’s a great time to go, not only is it cheaper, but there are a lot festivals on during the period. It’s great entertainment for young and old alike. All throughout Madrid it is Labour Day where they have such things going on as Bull Fights, lots of parades and festival dances everywhere you look.

Another time you could think of going is toward the end of October. The temperatures won’t be great and the sun might not be out as much as during the summer months. However, the temperatures will still be higher than in the UK and if you’re not looking to go to Spain for a beach holiday this can be the ideal time to go! Interested in culture and art galleries? There will be much fewer tourists with drastically reduced queues at many of Barcelona’s galleries. With a little research you can find some fantastic landmarks you can visit as well. Probably best to remember to bring your camera with you.

So what can you expect when you’re there during these cheaper months? Well for starters, the food. Don’t get too excited about this prospect though, the food is great in Spain, but you won’t be paying less than the U.K for example on your holiday. So you might want to look for half board hotel so you get some of your meals for free. Trust me, after 2 weeks there you’ll wish you had, I know I did when I went!

Then we move onto the drinks, of course I’m talking about the alcoholic variety here! During the off-peak times drinks drop down in price to try to encourage you to buy more of them as they don’t have the volume of people during the summer months. May as well make the most of it, I’m sure most of you will agree.

So what you might be thinking, do you do if you’re actually looking to go to Spain in the summer months. Well, it’s going to be harder to find a cheap deal like off-peak season. But there are a few tips I can still give you. Use price comparison websites, but be careful. When you find a “deal”, go directly to the website, don’t click on the whole “check it out here” because the price comparison website could be adding a few extra £$’s on so they make some money! Also make sure to book in advance, preferably 6 months, but for the best deal, try and make it a year in advance. You’ll be surprised at how much this can save you!

I hope my tips have helped you and I hope you find a great deal and have a fantastic holiday.
