Trip planning doesn’t have to be overwhelming — here’s the simple method I use as an Independent Travel Manager.
1. Choose Your Destination + Dates
Avoid high seasons unless necessary.
2. Set a Realistic Budget
Split into:
- Flights
- Accommodation
- Food
- Activities
- Transportation
3. Book Flights Early
Start with comparison tools:

4. Choose Your Accommodation
Stay near public transport.
5. Create a Light Itinerary
Don’t schedule 10 things a day — leave room for surprises.
Real-Life Example
One couple I assisted planned 12 activities a day in Italy. By day 3, they were exhausted and skipped half. Less is more.
