A
Some websites help make our travel easier! The following are some of them. You may find one very useful before you start your journey.
Home Exchange
You list your house on the site, find another house where you'd like to stay, and contact the house owner to see if he or she wants to exchange homes. This exchange system lets you live like a local in a comfortable house or apartment instead of a tiny and expensive hotel room. In addition, you needn't pay any accommodation fees!
Tripadvisor
It is the biggest online community of travelers and also the first stop for vacation planners. Not only can you book flights, hotels, car rentals, and get tickets for scenery spots here, but you can also get reviews and tips from other travelers. The destination guides on Tripadvisor are often much better than the expensive guidebooks in a bookstore.
Yapta
Yapta stands for Your Amazing Personal Travel Assistant. Yapta reminds you when the price for a particular flight drops. It can do it even after you purchase your tickets, giving you a chance to get a refund (退款) of the difference from the airline. If you prefer, Yapta will bargain (讨价还价) with the airline on your behalf for a $15 fee.
Roomorama
Roomorama is a website for short-term rental website. With its large choice of house listings worldwide, you can find whichever house suits your needs. Whether you're looking for a single bedroom or a large apartment, Roomorama has that all covered! It also provides a unique and secure payment system to keep your money secure. Roomorama can only hand over the payment code (密码) to the host until you check in.
