Booking.com – The Genius program offers big discounts, priority customer support for faster assistance, early check-in and late check-out options and complimentary airport transfers at select properties.

Hostelworld – We find hostels a great option for their social environment. As well as being wallet friendly, many hostels also organise social events, group tours, and activities that encourage guests to connect and explore together.

Paul Camper – If you are looking to hire a campervan, Paul Camper has a great selection in Europe and Oceania.

Car Rentals

Discover Cars – This is the best place to get a great deal on car hire! However, their ratings aren’t always accurate, we always double-check the company on Google before booking to make sure we’re getting the best deal with the best company.

Other Handy Tools

Airalo – For the best data packages and easy to use eSIM solutions, we use Airalo.
