Travelers looking for the real
Halloween travel deal--or a summer, fall or spring deal as
well--might consider an Eastern Europe vacation for a splendid trip
that offers all of the history, culture, and natural beauty of
Western Europe at roughly a third to half the cost depending on the
venues you choose.
This region is home to
Transylvania, summer nights where midnight is light as day,
medieval villages, and regional cuisines and wines that keep
visitors coming back. Each of the following destinations is popular
among tourists, yet surprisingly affordable. Even so, you can take
even more of the price of a trip with Orbitz travel coupon for $50 off a 4 night stay or Travelocity hotel coupons, including one for
$100 off.
Here are some highlights to a
mostly overlooked and under-priced travel destination:

Halloween travel can be kooky,
spooky, cozy and fun! Many popular resorts and amusement parks
offer Halloween packages for couples and families. For travelers
looking for fun yet inexpensive getaways to popular destinations,
Travelocity offers Halloween trips under $299 including destinations in
several US cities.
For travelers who prefer to take
the road less traveled, there are plenty of options, including
hotels built in caves, treehouses, ice, and one that offers coffins
as beds.

Stuff We Like
Autumn is a season that fills the
senses. Visions of lush red, yellow, and orange tree leaves are
everywhere. So is the scent of smoke trailing from chimneys of cozy
homes--along with the cool air on breezy days and chilly
nights...To many fall is a time of reflection and respite. To
others, however, fall is a time of...well, food.
Fall is also traditionally the
season of harvest--which means you can enjoy its luscious bounty
for less. Stock up on squash, sweet potatoes and, of course,
pumpkin--all rich in nutrients and low in price at this time of
year. Starting with yummy Halloween candy, through Thanksgiving
dinner and leftovers, all the way to winter holidays, autumn is a
time for togetherness, laughter, fun times and delicious food!

There is nothing like an island vacation to
relax, inspire, and refresh a weary traveler. The problem is that
leaving the mainland often doubles or triples the price of a trip.
Fortunately, even for island getaways, sometimes lesser known is
less expensive--and yet just as splendid.
Next time you want the tranquility of an island
retreat, checkout these islands off the US coast. You'll save about
30% to 50% compared to Caribbean
packages or Hawaiian
vacations--and that is just on transportation and
accommodations.
The seafood, leisure activities, and shopping in these areas are
also much more affordable--resulting in a trip well-worth the
reduced price tag!
