High Street reisbureaus gezicht Up naar goedkope vluchten Online gevonden



De enorme groei van online reisbureaus en prijs vergelijking websites heeft geleid tot grote nood aan hun concurrenten meer traditionele, op basis van high street. Het graag van Thomas Cook en Thomson worden op hun thuisbasis uitgedaagd door de enorme toename van het aantal van goedkope vluchten en budget vakantie accommodatie gemakkelijk beschikbaar op het Internet.




De komst van de kredietcrisis en de resulterende wereldwijde economische teruggang, leidde tot vele mensen opnieuw kijken naar hun huishoudelijke begroting en het veranderen van de winkels en recreatieve gewoonten van een mensenleven. Boodschappen steeds vond plaats op de goedkopere supermarkten en marketing campagnes voor de supermarkten aangepast aan dit. De vakantie gewoonten van Britse huishoudens dat ook, gewijzigd met mensen op zoek om geld te besparen zonder concessies te doen hun broodnodige vakantie.




Ze waren enorm geholpen in deze met de opmars van de goedkope luchtvaartmaatschappijen, aanbieden van goedkope vluchten naar korte en middellange afstanden bestemmingen die eerder beledigend had uit de prijsklasse van vele mensen. Wanneer deze lage tarieven werden gecombineerd met het gemak van Internet zoeken en prijsvergelijking, zij geleid tot aanzienlijke besparingen voor hard-pressed gezinnen. Zij veroorzaakt ook een verschuiving in de manier waarop mensen hun vakantie gepland. Overwegende dat voordat je zou boeken van een vakantie pakket en laat het reisbureau sorteren alles uit, nu mensen waren het creëren van een op maat gemaakte pauze, kiezen de goedkope vluchten die hen geschikt en matching hen omhoog met goedkope accommodatie in de bestemming van hun keuze.




Om de traditionele reisbureaus bedreiging dit onvermijdelijk een echte en aanwezig. De kosten en de overheadkosten die is gekoppeld aan de aanwezigheid van een zichtbaar high street zijn aanzienlijke op zich, maar een netwerk van toegewijde resorts en de middelen om klanten naar hen onderhouden is ook duur. In de meeste gevallen, niet kunnen oude-stijl reisbureaus gewoon concurreren met de meer gestroomlijnde online alternatieven.




Pakketreizen zijn ook gevoeliger voor de effecten van de monetaire schommelingen dan de individuele goedkope vluchten en accommodatie beschikbaar op het Internet. Met zo veel high street reisbureaus gebonden aan resorts in de EU, is de toename van de sterkte van de euro slecht nieuws voor hen, zoals UK vakantiegangers tegen een twee weken op het Continent beslissen en in plaats daarvan voor korte Europese stedentrips en een "belangrijkste" vakantie buiten de Eurozone, zoals de steeds meer populaire bestemmingen van Turkije en Egypte kiezen. Dergelijke verschuivingen zijn gemakkelijk waaraan met de leveranciers van goedkope vluchten - vooral de goedkope luchtvaartmaatschappijen, die een host van middellange afstanden routes naar bestemmingen zoals Marokko, Turkije en Kroatië hebben toegevoegd.

Morocco - A Destination That Has Everything






Morocco is a top holiday destination with something to offer just about everyone, from relaxing beach stays to activity holidays walking in the Atlas Mountain. Marrakech, the busy, bustling city, dating back to the 11th century, is filled curious sprawling souks, (markets) with an abundance of local traders and craftsmen including jewelers, potters, shoemakers and more. It is the home of haggling and impossible to leave without some small bargain. In the infamous Djemaa el-Fna Square the atmosphere is intoxicating and is the heart of Marrakech. You will be overwhelmed by the smells wafting over from the food stalls, the moving colours of the jugglers and snake charmers that vie for your attention. Marrakech is so hectic, but a wonderful world away from any British city, that you will need a break after visiting. Away from the pushy dominating city, Morocco actually has a lot more to offer.





The Atlas Mountains are only an hour away from Marrakech but you feel you've been transported to another time. Tranquil valleys, fertile pasture lands and snow-capped mountains are home to the more traditional Moroccans, the Berbers, and the country villagers. Set between the Sahara and Atlantic coast, the mountains can be walked, or trekked, all year round. In the summer the Atlas provide a cooling breeze as you trek through villages of small flat-roofed Berber houses which blend seamlessly into the mountains. In winter, more serious trekkers head up Mt Toubkal to summit the highest mountain in North Africa, during the harsh, cold and snowy weather. To summit Toubkal which reaches 4,167m high, is for most trekkers a feather in their cap but it is achievable for experienced mountain climbers and the very fit during the warmer months. There are so many trails and paths to follow that it is advisable to stay up in mountains for at least two days to give you a chance to really explore the area. There are some fantastic cheap gite d'etapes, (village houses with simple dormitory rooms), offering basic but clean accommodation. For those looking for a little extra comfort, you'll find beautiful mountain retreats, set high in the hills perhaps with a pool. The Atlas Mountains are somewhere to get away from modern, fast-paced life and take a step back.





Away from the mountains heading south, lays the Sahara Desert. The Sahara, the largest hot desert in the world, borders the Atlantic to the west and the Red Sea to the east and the Atlas Mountains to the north in Morocco. Some of its sand dunes can reach up to 18m in height providing the perfect platform to view this vast sand sea. Watching the sunrise over this incredible landscape is breathtaking and something not to be missed on your Morocco holiday. The Sahara is of course the best place too, to try out camel riding. The camel has been the chosen mode of transport in the desert for centuries and these sturdy, if a little temperamental, animals will take you across the sands as revel in the silence and solitude. Sleeping under the desert skies is also a treat, as the clear skies provide optimum astronomical viewing and the chance to glimpse the Milky Way. For the more active you can sand board down the dunes, take bouncy jeep rides or trek through the desert.





If hiking in the Atlas and camel riding through the desert isn't enough, you can always head to the Ourika River for a spot of white water rafting or the coastal port of Essaouira to swim in the sea or sunbath on the long sandy beach. Morocco is a destination that has just about everything, it is cheap, has plenty of activities for adults and children, an abundance of history and amazing food. The weather is pleasant most of the year and there are plenty of budget airlines that make daily flights from the UK. Morocco is ideal for activity holidays, beach trips and cultural exploration.

Choosing to Travel To An Exotic Destination






Whether you are a traveler who has experienced your fair share of off the beaten track destinations, or are an individual who usually takes a vacation in a regular resort and is now planning to travel to an exotic destination for your next trip overseas, a visit to Morocco would likely be a choice that is not regretted. Though only a short distance from the shores of Europe, Morocco is a world away culturally.





The structure and certainties of the western world vanish as soon as one sets foot in Morocco. Though not as chaotic as some other African countries, it is still a destination that can overload the senses. The country offers an opportunity to immerse one's self in a culture that is both rich and fascinating. There is no shortage of interesting sights and attractions to be discovered in this diverse land. Most visitors start their trips in one of the bigger cities, each of which is unique in its own right.





Tangier, a city once glamorous but now slightly faded is still the first port of call of many international visitors. The Atlantic winds blow strongly along this coast and take visitors down to the cosmopolitan and internationally famous city of Casablanca. Further south lies the fishing ports of Essaouira and Agadir, replete with whitewashed homes and old style Moroccan architecture.





The imperial cities of Fez and Marrakesh, inland from the coastal towns have been attracting visitors for centuries. The ancient medinas and winding streets offer untold surprises, this is why they attract visitors to return time and again. Away from the urban sprawl there are Roman ruins, indicative of just how far this once mighty empire spread.





If you are an individual keen on experiencing nature at its best, Morocco offers a number of possibilities for you to wear your hiking boots and get a true sense of this ancient land. There are endless trails that meander between Berber villages, as well as the option of trekking the High Atlas mountains. The truly hardy can attempt to conquer North Africa's highest peak, Jebel Toubkal, though this is best done with guide in tow.





When you book a flight to Morocco, it is not complete without spending at least one night camping out in the Sahara. Very little can compare to the experience of riding out into the desert on a camel, then settling down for the evening in front of a camp fire with the heavens above dotted with a seemingly unlimited number of stars.
