The best website to begin your journeys

I kinda sorta always wanted to be a travel agent growing up, but let's face it...with the abundance of web sites available to even the least tech-savvy individuals on the internet, the business of an agency storefront is dying, and has given way to an abundance of travel sites. I have experience with many of the sites available, and I am going to give you a wonderful web site to visit for budget travels.

skyscanner - skyscanner.com is seriously one of the most organized travel web sites out there and is extremely easy to navigate. 

With skyscanner, you can dream of your destination, and then instead of plugging in specific dates (which you can still do) you can have skyscanner show you the best flight and hotel prices for up to a whole year to that destination! 
Maybe you have a specific time you have to travel, but are feeling a bit spontaneous about where to go. Skyscanner also allows you to input a certain date and the location you will be leaving, then shows you the cheapest flights from your state to other states and countries. It shows you the least expensive flights throughout the U.S. from your destination, and it also shows you the least expensive flights from your destination to various continents and countries. You can see flight costs from your departing city throughout the world with a simple click of a button. It is a great resource for planning budget travels. 


They also have a feature for hotels and cars. They pull the prices from most travel sites for your entered dates and show you the best prices in the area including taxes. This is great, because the same hotel at one site may be $100 cheaper than another. You can then sort the hotel search results based on prices, distance, rating, start rating, etc.. 


I love this site! I spend so much time on it planning dream vacations that I may or may not ever go on. I recommend you check it out. You will be hooked if you love planning vacations as much as I do.
