End of Summer Vacation Tips

Fall is on the horizon, and you might be getting that itch to take one last trip to enjoy the summer weather before it turns cold. The kids may or may not be back in school, but maybe you’d like to take them somewhere special for a weekend trip. At Cash 4 Cars, we understand. The school year is always so hectic, and you’re definitely ready for a break after these last few months. To make your planning a bit easier, consider these travel tips from our staff.

1. Set Your Budget

The first step to any successful vacation plan is to establish a vacation budget. You need to know exactly how much you can afford to spend on hotels and rental cars before you start booking them. Make a list of priorities to help you determine how you’d like to spend your money. For example, would you like a nice hotel, fun attractions, and family activities, or is something else more important to you? Next, decide how much money you’d like to spend in each category.

2. Pick a Fun Destination

When picking a destination, many gravitate to beaches. While that can be a great option, we think it’s a good idea to think outside the beach box. Maybe you’d like to stay closer to home or try something different, like other vacation destinations such as New York City, Washington, D.C., or even Niagara Falls. You might even decide to find a cabin in the woods for a few days of relaxation with your family.

3. Make the Big Decisions First

Sometimes it can be fun to make some spontaneous decisions when traveling, but you should at least get the “big ones” out of the way. Make sure you know where you’re going to stay and that you’ve reserved your flights and/or car rental. Because the end of summer is a popular travel season, the earlier you book, the better.

4. Be Sure Your Vehicle Is Up for It

If you’re planning a road trip, it’s important to be sure your vehicle is up to the task. If you’re considering upgrading your vehicle before your trip, sell your car to Cash 4 Cars in Philadelphia. We give you fairly priced quotes and no sales pitch. Contact us today at (215) 805-3100 with any questions or get a quick quote online anytime. We look forward to working with you.
