How to Plan a Dream Trip
Without Going Broke
Welcome to SunnyTrips! If you're tired of expensive travel agencies and generic tour packages, you're in the right place. We believe planning your trip yourself is not just cheaper—it's half the fun.
1 Know Your Numbers
The biggest mistake travelers make is booking a flight before knowing how much the entire trip will cost. Before you do anything else, use our Trip Budgeter below to calculate your daily "Ice Cream Money". (If you used the search box on the homepage, your destination is already loaded!)
2 Hack Your Flights
Now that you have a budget, it's time to find cheap airfare. Never book directly on an airline's homepage without checking aggregators first.
We use Google Flights for 99% of our travel hacking. Read our complete guide on 7 Google Flights Hacks to Save Hundreds. The most important rule? Stay flexible on your dates!
3 Master the Logistics
The final step is preparing for the ground. Don't let bad exchange rates or forgetting your power adapter ruin the first day of your vacation.
- Money: Use our Live Currency Converter so you know exactly what things cost in your home currency.
- Packing: Use our Ultimate International Packing List to make sure you never forget the essentials.
- Metrics: Headed to Europe? Use our Unit Converter to figure out what 30°C and 100km actually means.
