Croatia holiday 'can save travellers money'

14 July 2009

Going on holiday to Croatia can save travellers money, according to Jonathan Mitcham, principle researcher for Which? Holiday.

The consumer campaign group representative said that Britons can find good vacation deals in this country and other nations that do not use the euro currency, due to the current exchange rate.

Offering advice on how to secure good-priced holiday deals to places such as Croatia, Mr Mitcham advised people to avoid peak travel seasons like the school-holiday periods.

Taking flights at unsociable hours or midweek can also reduce the cost of a trip, he added.

"Either book early - especially if booking as a family - or take a gamble and try a last-minute booking if you're flexible about the type of accommodation you may get," the expert explained.

Croatia's tourism minister Damir Bajs has suggested this year that late bookings will be crucial to the success of his country's tourism season in 2009, although he indicated to Reuters that people are staying for longer on their Croatia holidays.
