I’m always a little hesitant to share Black Friday and Cyber Monday promotions—I’d never want to encourage excessive spending. That said, if you’ve got solid travel plans for the coming year, these sales can be a fantastic way to save on trips (or parts of trips) you were planning to book anyway.
While, in my opinion, airline deals tend to be underwhelming, tour companies, hotels, and car rental services often offer substantial discounts. For example, two years ago, my friend Sarah and I saved hundreds of dollars on an upcoming winter trip to Iceland by booking hotels, tours, and a car rental on Black Friday. Last year, I scored 40% off my hotel in Cusco, Peru, through Booking.com (though this year’s discounts cap at 35%).
Here are my favorite deals this year!

EXTRAS

Note: I’ve booked Flytographer on three occasions and have been pretty happy with the results. While I’ve yet to capture the perfect family photo, what matters most is finally having photos that include me too!
For Black Friday and Cyber Monday, please remember to plan wisely, focus on trips you’re already considering, and book before the promotions end. Happy deal hunting—and here’s to making your travel plans a little more budget-friendly!
