1. Travel Insurance Comparisons (mandatory in some countries)
Never travel abroad without one. It is very important and very cheap.
COMPARATOR 1: This site compares prices from the best insurance companies on the market and finds much cheaper prices than anywhere else. It can be half of what a travel agency charges for the same insurance. Best suited for those living in South America, Central America and Mexico.
COMPARATOR 2: Best suited for those living in the rest of the world.
The most important thing is to get one that has at least $30,000 in medical coverage. For Europe and Argentina, it is mandatory to have insurance with this amount of medical assistance.
2. Rental Car Comparisons
CAR COMPARISON 1 and CAR COMPARISON 2: Sensational tools that compare car rental prices from the major rental companies on the market. They find much cheaper prices than on the rental company’s own website. It is the cheapest and most reliable place to rent a car.
Both are excellent and the largest in the world. Compare both and see which has the best price, to save even more. Always choose large rental companies such as Alamo, Avis, Europcar, Sixt, Thrifty, Dollar and Budget, to avoid problems.
3. Tickets, tours and transfers:
This is the site we’ve used extensively on all our trips. It’s one of the largest in the world and has all the tickets and tours available. It’s already one of the cheapest places, but its biggest advantage is that you can pay in your local currency and avoid fees.
- Free tours: offers free tours in most tourist cities. You only pay a tip to the guide at the end of the tour.
- Free cancellation: You can cancel your ticket at no cost.
- Transfer: There, you can also find a private car from the airport to your hotel. It’s sometimes cheaper than a taxi, because you pay in advance (which avoids scams from taxi drivers), the driver already knows your final destination, and the driver waits for you with a sign with your name on it at the arrivals exit. It’s very easy and safe, so you can get to your hotel safely and without any hassle.
- 24-hour support: They provide 24-hour support in multiple languages.
