The truth about “hot” tours… (PHOTOS)

Wellcome "the velvet season", goodbye hot or rather hellish season. Those who lacked funds for summer vacation, until mid-October can travel at least within Europe.  

Mr. Eduard – a representative of a travel agency – advises everyone to go to Egypt, despite warnings from the media. He says: "Prices are too tempting, the sea is very picturesque, but, of course, everything depends on your available resources and preferences! Pilgrims would not go for shopping in Italy, and extreme lovers probably would refuse to go to Bulgaria. Residents of the Silver Land seek maximum comfort all inclusive and choose five-star hotels. Especially, since the difference between 3 and 4-5 star hotel is "ridiculous."

Clients of Uzhgorod tour companies (there are nearly 200 of them in the capital of Transcarpathia) buy tours to Turkey, Greece, Spain, Tunisia, Montenegro… They try to catch a "hot ticket", which sometimes can appear mere hours before departure…

Yulianna Melnychuk – a tour agency representative – dispelling myths about "hot tours," admits: "of course, it is possible to save, but within a maximum of $ 100. It should be understood that in this case we are talking about charter flights with some free seats left. Accordingly, they reduce the price in order not to lose money. The same applies to hotels."

"In order to "catch" a "hot ticket" you need to leave documents with us and wait – Mr. Oleksandr – also a representative of the travel company – said. – We monitor offers daily, since we cooperate with many operators… On average, a travel agency in Uzhgorod organizes holidays for 100 persons monthly."

 So, before the leave, choose an agency with clean records. Do not be fooled, because in many cases customers buy tours with stay in nonexistent hotels. Do not forget about countries which require visas… It takes at least 10 days.  And most importantly, the velvet season has just started – do not hesitate, but also do not rush to buy "a tour at an exclusive price", take into account all the nuances.  Better to spend fewer days in a fairy tale than a longer time in everyday life, but in a foreign country…You have long waited for this journey, so you should realize all your fancies and dreams.
