Where would you rather stay:
in a medieval castle overlooking
town or a bland hotel
room? The 15th-century
hunting lodge-turned-eco
farm of a marquis or a chain
hotel? Would you rather take
gondola poling lessons or a
quick gondola ride in Venice?
In this evening seminar,
guidebook author Reid
Bramblett shares tips, tricks,
and insider secrets that can
turn an ordinary vacation
into the trip of a lifetime—
without increasing the cost.
Interspersed among the
practical tips, travel-industry trends, and recommended
resources will be examples of how saving money doesn’t have
to shortchange your trip; it can help you experience more
while spending less.With his advice, for instance, you could
skip to the head of the long line at Paris’s Musee d’Orsay
without buying a ticket or take a free tour of Hong Kong’s
Victoria Harbour in an authentic Chinese junk.
Bramblett is the author of numerous Frommer’s and DK
Eyewitness guides and founder of ReidsGuides.com.
