The Best Travel Sites On The Net . . . Period

There are a lot of different travel sites on the Internet,
but some of them truly stand out, depending of course upon
your needs and requirements.

ALL AROUND SITES

The best all-around travel site has to be:

Expedia .com

This site is great for putting together travel packages,
Disney vacations, cruise and sight-seeing tours and Resort
packages. If you are looking for a tour or a package,
Expedia is bar none, the best. But you can't rule out
Orbitz.com either. It's growing so fast in popularity that
it's practically in a virtual tie with Expedia.

Following close on their heels of course is Travelocity.com,
another great site for general travel. These sites are great
for overall travel plans and for family vacations etc,. but
don't rule them out for the occasional great bargain either.

The Editor of this piece was investigating flight prices
from New Mexico to Oregon recently and actually found a
better price on Expedia than on either Hotwire or Priceline!
The moral to this story is to check and double check!
Experiment with different flight times etc,. you might just
stumble onto that rare jewel at one of these sites.

DEEP DISCOUNT SITES

If you are looking for the best deals and deepest discounts, the
best site right now is:

Hotwire.com

Provided you have a fairly flexible schedule. You might for
example, have to catch a flight at 5:30AM and make one or
even two connections to get where you are going. But the
savings could well be worth it.

Hotwire Bonus - This has to be the best site out there for
booking car rentals. It is not unusual at all to get a
midsize car for no more than $18.00 per day. You may not
know what company you're getting, but as long as you get a
great car, who cares? Give 'em a shot next time you need a
car rental. I once snagged a 4-wheel drive upgrade in LA (Chevy
Blazer) for almost a whole week for $18.00 per day!

The next best site for discounted travel would of course
have to be PriceLine.com. As with any discount site, do your
research before you log on, offer a low but still
reasonable price and chances are, you'll get to where you
are going on the "cheap."

Priceline and Hotwire are both great deals for last-minute
travel needs where the airlines typically charge top dollar.

BEST ADVENTURE TRAVEL SITE

From a food and wine excursion into the Napa Valley to an
African Safari, iExplore.com is a great resource. If you
want to scuba dive with the sharks, or go white water
kayaking in China, they have experts who can answer almost
any question and put together a vacation package that will
excite you!

BEST TRAVEL COMMUNITY

Thinking of going someplace different or exotic? This is a
must-stop site before your plans get to carried away. Users
post everythng here about their experiences, recomendations
and nightmares for almost any destination you can imagine.
Oh, you want the name of the site? sure:

Igougo.com

Be sure and post your own travel adventures when you return,
you can earn points redeemable of travel gear and frequent-
flier miles.

BEST SITE FOR SERIOUS CHOW HOUNDS

Chowhound.com of course. If you want the real nitty gritty
on where the good eats are in most any town or city, this is
a must visit site. Zagat's is fine to visit, but for serious
munchers and noshers, Chowhound is the place to check out!
