Where is hot (and cheap) in May?!
May is a really great time to travel. Seasonal resorts are opening up, the sunshine is more reliable, temperatures are climbing and prices are still low. The pre summer temperatures make it a much more comfortable to explore, whilst you still get to enjoy blue sunny skies and time at the beach.

DIY booking vs Package Holiday?
It is like wondering whether it is better to clean your own house or hire a cleaner? Wash your own car or go to the car wash? Package holidays can work out good value when you are traveling to popular beach resorts, for a standard 7, 10 or 14 night holiday, especially if you are someone who needs to add checked bags and reserve seats. The package price will include a checked bag, transfers, and the ease of having someone do it all for you. Remember, agents add on commission. They may have access to a bargain which means it is worth booking with them but always shop around. You wouldn’t buy the first car you saw, or the first house you visited, so have a look around at all of the potential options, both package and DIY. Our website makes DIY travel really simple and will save you a lot of time. Use our Start your Journey feature to get started.
All Inclusive or Self Catering?
This really comes down to what sort of holiday you are looking for. All Inclusive is great in that it removes any food related decision making from your holiday. If you are anything like us, making a decision as to where to eat can take a while. All Inclusive makes it easier to predict what the entire trip will cost. When you book an all inclusive package holiday, everything is pretty much covered, so extra spending isn’t essential. Bear in mind that if you don’t plan to stay around the hotel all day, it can end up being a pricey option if you don’t take full advantage of it. Breakfast included or Half board are alternatives that might work out better value for you in this situation.

Billund is such an amazing family destination. October can be hit and miss with weather, so focusing on a destination with theme parks and indoor attractions can be a great idea.
If you want more information, comment LEGO and I’ll send you a blog post I wrote explaining how to get there, ideas on where to stay along with some practical tips 🫶🏻
