Travel is one of life’s greatest joys. From eating chilli crab at bustling Singapore hawkers in 45-degree heat to strolling through ancient streets and seeing magnificent beasts in their natural habitat, experiencing different cultures and landscapes is enriching. But while travel makes our lives richer, it does force us to dig into our pockets — and often pretty deeply. The workaround? Travel deals, holiday packages, and flight and cruise sales which occur more regularly than you think. You just have to know where to look.
Because not all holidays are created equal, we’ve curated our pick of the best travel deals currently happening. Spend your money on international flights, a luxurious eco-stay or that oceanfront villa at one of the best Bali resorts instead of on the long-haul flight over there (which, let’s be honest, is often the least exciting part of travel). Here are the best travel deals, sales and holiday packages to know about.
