When should you buy a tour?
Dear, tell me/advise please. When should you buy a tour? Only recently have finally decided on the date of vacation. Departure date strictly - 08/09/2013. When it is better to go to a tour agency for a ticket and it is more profitable in terms of cost, today - tomorrow or wait another week or two. Or even looking for a burning one?!

It depends what country you are going to. if you need to apply for a visa - buy now.
if Turkey, then also hurry up - this is the high season and later there may not be places in normal hotels or on flights. there will most likely not be any last-minute tours to Turkey for this date.
see for yourself on the websites of tour operators the availability of tickets, as well as the proposed hotels and their prices
and specify the country

Understood. Then probably at the weekend we will go over the tour agencies. The country has not been decided yet. Turkey, Egypt, Tunisia. We also thought about Greece, but there we probably had to deal with a visa in advance.

Do not take it for impudence :), maybe a hotel in Turkey, for example, tell me 10000-11000 UAH. with sandy beach.
аватар sandra-art
to open a visa to Greece is not a problem and you have time. Plus, Greece is now "burning". the same with Tunisia - very cheap
Egypt also hasn't raised prices yet, but it's very hot there now
Turkey if you are two adults, then according to the budget you fit into good 4 *
I was this year in SUNSTAR BEACH HOTEL 4 * for the third time. no complaints. but on your date from coral for two it is 1300ue. the beach there is sandy but the entrance to the sea is inconvenient, preferably aqua shoes
аватар sandra-art
Tunisia for your dates in 4 * for all inclusive start from 1300. 5* from 1600, but last minute tours may appear closer to departure

the longer you put off buying a tour, the more likely it is not to get on a plane, I’m already silent, that no one guarantees you the availability of planes on 9.08.
аватар Marafetka
At 9.08, there is already little to eat ... especially from the good. I hardly book tickets to Cuba for the beginning of September, but I don’t even try to book for August.
аватар Tialoffroad
It so happened that earlier they could not decide on the date. Let's try on the weekend to look for some options once such a thing. Basically, we rested in the Crimea, but already fed up. Abroad for the first time, so I don’t know how better?!
аватар sandra-art
if it's your first time then go to turkey
аватар Tialoffroad
Thank you. Let's focus on Turkey. Which resort in Turkey has sandy beaches?
аватар Marafetka
If you are traveling for the first time, I highly recommend that before you leave an advance payment at the company, go to this site in search of information about the company and the hotel that you are offered. then "by Shurik" he threw a lot.
аватар Tialoffroad
Marafetka, thanks for the advice. That's what I thought to do. Praise high technology, you can go to the Internet and read what's what from your phone.

Found, like, not a bad option in Egypt Sharm El Sheikh Iberotel Il Mercato. I'm just within the budget. Just wondering, do tour agencies offer discounts?
аватар Marafetka
Iberotel is a good network. tour. Agencies do, operators don't. But compare the price at the operator and at the agency, so that prices do not go up.

We are also on holiday abroad for the first time. We are flying to Turkey. We chose a 3 * + hotel, they said you can start with it :)) We bought a ticket in advance, because they said that the dollar would go up - we had to be in time. The Travel Agency said that the peak of the season in Turkey until August 15, then decline.

Tunisia is on fire this year, it makes no sense to take it in advance, they put good prices on flights for the next 2-3 weeks. Proven and major operator - "Oasis".
Turkey does not burn and will not burn, prices are high this year, there are plenty of seats on flights. Given the hottest season, I advise you to pay attention to the southwestern and western coasts - Marmaris, Fethiye, Kusadasi.
Egypt in August is for suicides. Or you will swim at dawn and dusk, and the rest of the time you will sit under the air conditioner.
You can easily get around Greece with a visa, it is issued very quickly. Prices will be lower than Turkish ones, flight occupancy will be higher. In Greece, pay attention to the beach - paid or not, and how far from the hotel. And also the fact that there are many good hotels on BB and HB.
I completely agree with Marafetka - start by looking for a tour on the sites of tour operators, then go to the agencies. Most likely, they will make a discount, especially if you are already with ready-made options.

tarashalit, the season in Turkey - until October inclusive. What is considered a peak? If the highest prices, then they hold the whole of July, August and September, excluding a few dates around September 1st. If the peak of the heat - they are right.
аватар Marafetka
My family started their trips abroad from Turkey 13 years ago. It was a weak C grade in Kemer. It seemed to us - a palace, after the sanatorium "Voskhod" in Feodosia) So 3+ for the first trip - that's it.
аватар tarashalit
I mean the peak of buying tickets. Everyone needs time to relax before school. As for the heat, you can also argue - August is the most for Turkey, but fry in Egypt.
аватар Marafetka
September is the velvet season in Turkey. Still warm, few children. I like Turkey in September. In the summer I fry in Egypt. but that's my personal preference, I'm a psycho.
аватар tarashalit
Marafetka, to each his own :))) We are going for good impressions and a beautiful tan! :))
аватар sandra-art
sandy beaches in Turkey are Belek, Side, Lara region.
Alanya is also presented as sandy beaches, but almost all hotels have problems with entering the sea.
if 3 * is not a problem for you, then you can choose hotels of the Cleopatra network - the beach is excellent, hotels in the center of Alanya. It will not be boring. food is also decent
аватар Pachok
tarashalit, believe my 15 years of experience in traveling to Turkey by sea :) - August - NOT "the right thing for Turkey":! The most "that" is the end of September-beginning of October, when the sea is still 26, the air during the day is 28-32 maximum and there is no suffocating heat and humidity. And it's VERY hot in August. In Egypt fry - really! And in Antalya, cook: (At this time, it’s even better to go to the west coast.
