Booking Sites
These sites are great for discovering activities and resources in new places!
We don't always book with this site, but I always like to check here because there are some great deals.
Cheap Car Rental, Price Match Guarantee - Rentalcars.com
Viator is amazing for planning things to do in new places!

I like using TripAdvisor for the reviews. Especially when booking something like a car transfer. Don't want that to fall through when you land with tired kids!
Tripadvisor: Over a billion reviews & contributions for Hotels, Attractions, Restaurants, and more
This site is great, because you can get cash back just for booking or buying something you were going to do anyway. Use our code: CHADSL45 for extra savings!
Rakuten
Swagbucks is great when you have time to kill. You can earn cashback on a ton of things even by taking surveys.
