Sometimes I feel that when you go to travel agent that they want to sell you the most expensive vacation possible.  I suppose it makes sense as most of them are working on commission and the bigger the sale, the bigger their cut.

So instead of visiting a travel agent this year, I decided to take my search online looking for cheap holidays that I could afford.  Most of my searching was done on travel forums so that I could find unbiased reviews of great locations throughout the world.

In many of these forums, there is mention of a great beachfront town of Icmeler Turkey that seemed to have everything that I was looking for.  In fact, I was able to find cheap flights to Turkey and that made the location even more attractive.

So from now on, instead of talking to a travel agent, I think I’m going to look online to find cheap holiday destinations as well as get opinions and suggestions regarding where to go.
