Book a Flight!
Skyscanner
My go-to for comparing prices across airlines fast. I use it to scan a whole month at once and catch the cheapest days to fly, especially for routes into the Caribbean and Latin America where prices swing a lot.
Google Flights
Great for tracking price history and setting alerts. I check this alongside Skyscanner before booking anything, especially for flexible-date trips.
Here’s a Tip!
Give your readers a quick tip to help them prepare for their trip!
Transportation
Welcome Pickups
Pre-book a vetted local driver to meet you at the airport, so you’re not negotiating a taxi fare at midnight in a country where you don’t speak the language. Highly recommend for first-time visits to Santo Domingo.
DiscoverCars
My pick for comparing rental car prices across multiple companies in one search, with clear cancellation policies so you’re not stuck if plans change.

Whether you’re headed to a beach town or a colonial city center, packing right makes the trip. Here’s what I bring every time:

Booking Accommodations
Agoda
Especially useful for hotel deals in Southeast Asia and the Caribbean — I check here first for smaller boutique properties that don’t always show up elsewhere.
Booking.com
My default for free cancellation flexibility and the widest inventory, from apartments to resorts.
Here’s where I book my tours!
Viator
Reliable for skip-the-line tickets and day tours with real reviews, especially in bigger cities.
Get Your Guide
Good alternative when Viator doesn’t have a specific local experience — I compare both before booking.
