Transportation
Drawback of the weekend at the last minute: the price of transportation!
If you go to France, renting a car can be cheaper than taking the train. In fact, unless you find a note “last minute”, you will pay very dearly for your ticket. Conversely, prices for car rentals are generally fixed.
The airlines’ low-cost are cheap, but it often takes to book early to get the best price. However, it is possible to find cheap tickets from:
- Standards that companies are selling their tickets in order not to travel at a loss if the flight is not full;
- Counters at airports;
- Sites comparators flight usually buy in bulk to companies and prefer to sell at a loss of tickets they have already paid rather than not sell at all.
Accommodation
Book a hotel in the last minute requires a lot of research. If you’re in high season, choose:
- Accommodation on the outskirts of cities;
- Hotel chains (which generally have a greater supply);
- Upscale accommodations (less popular places that cheap).
You can also contact the tourist offices. In particular they may learn about:
- Guest rooms available;
- The new facilities.
It is also possible to consider seasonal rentals.
