Greece-Go NOW while it's cheap!
Published July 8th, 2015 by Melanie Lieberman
Greece and the world are anticipating the return of the pre-euro Drachma therefore praying for agreeable exchange rates. Travel to Greece has always been a huge travel staple, but now it could climb even higher. We don't know yet what the Drachma will be worth yet, but we are already seeing a huge spike in flight searches to Greece and Santorini.

How to Buy Good Travel Insurance-Nomadic Matt's Travel Site
Published January 22nd, 2015 by Nomadic Matt
Travel Insurance is a necessity! This article does a good job explaining why it is so important when you travel. It also explains what to look for when purchasing insurance and what you need and don't need. We rarely let our clients walk out the door without buying some form of insurance. We see first hand examples of what some of our unlucky clients go through if something happens to them during travel without having insurance. Buy the insurance. You could be facing $50,000 EASY to med-flight you out, if there was an emergency. Which would you rather pay? $150.00 OR $50,000?!

While a lot of people think “I’m healthy, I don’t need travel insurance. I won’t get sick,”travel insurance is much than just medical protection. It covers you when your camera breaks, your flight is cancelled, a family member dies and you have to come home, or if something is stolen. It is the single most important thing you should get but hope to never have to use. And for the little money it costs a day, you’re foolish not to get it. I never planned on falling in the sea in Italy with my camera or popping my ear drum in Thailand and if it wasn’t for my travel insurance, I would have been out a lot of money.

I have only heard of one of these islands, but the other 5 were new to me! Has anybody
traveled to Bohol, Philippines?

Phi Phi is still beautiful, “a discovered paradise still worth checking out” as Matador founder Ross Borden puts it, but for those who knew the island before the crowds arrived, Phi Phi is a tragic example of Paradise Lost.

The Sneaky Hotel Fee You Should Always Check For-Conde Nast Traveler 4/1/15
Published 4/1/15 by Eric Jordan
Most hotels in major tourist destinations will have some sort of mandatory hidden fee, that is quietly added to your bill at check-out.
We try to find hotels/resorts for our clients that don't add these ridiculous fees. And if we have to book them in a resort with a fee,
we will always let our clients know ahead of time! Just another reason to book with a travel agent. Read his blog to learn more about
what the standard hotel fee runs and what it includes.

"So for now, at least until Benjamin Brin's class action works its way through the courts, put on your reading glasses for some eight point font. And if a hotel refers to a resort fee, unless it's clear that it's optional, assume it's mandatory."
