If you're going anywhere in Europe like portugal don't go all inclusive go SC. Try the local cuisine ffs!!

maybe so, just shopping around at the mo

tis true zippy, normally the food in the hotel ain't that good and you end up going out anyway!!

Also do it last minute. I'm booking my holiday two days before.

Its the mans way of booking a holiday!  :mrgreen:

yeah i was thinking that, just been shopping arouind on last minute, its cheap now, be even cheaper closer me thinks  8)

If yoiu don't mind where you go its the thing to do..

Yeah book all-inclusives last minute to get the best deal, as they are packages that tour operators by in bulk and then do their best to flog.

cheers jan

someone like lastminute are usually OK (although you usually find the 50 quid you think you saved dissapears as 'booking fee' and 'airport transfer').

I would warn, if you are thinking about doing it yourself, watch out for these bastards...

booked one of their flats, 90 quid for 4 days, bargain.    Photos look quite nice don't they ?  Note how none of the photos, including the one of the exterior, seem to show any windows - because as it turns out, there aren't any .  Now I suppose you can't really complain of misrepresentation, but honestly if I wanted to stay in a dungeon I'm used to specifically requesting that !

and to be fair if it was a dungeone you want all the gear so as all the chains and that etc  :wink:

well, that goes without saying !

Cape Verde Islands

Indeed Dodgers, meant to be the next 'big thing' as a tourist destination amongst well to do Europenas- a friends parents nearly moved out there and got themselves a business.  Beautiful scenary somewhere off the Atlantic cosast of Africa, I think they are developing rapidly but still have a little primative beauty left.

i'd be sceptical about going all inclusive.unless a friend or relative reccomended it to me

He only wants to go all inclusive cos of the drink.

of course  :beers:

I've been all-inclusive to Cuba, Jamaica and Brazil and can thoroughly recommend it, not sure about all-inclusive within Europe though.  Brazil was awesome and no more expensive than an average two-week holiday in Europe, in fact we booked a villa in Minorca in 2005 and by the time we had paid for that (two couples sharing), car hire, flights and food etc. Brazil worked out cheaper!

I have done my searching for the holiday and have now booked an all inclusive in dominican republic 5 * for £1200 quid in the middle of august result  8)

For how many days/people?

2 for a week

Tans
Should have tried an exchange trip. I here they are twinning Chippy with with Soweto.

Deutschland or Austria?

how do mr austin senior how the devil are you?

Yeah don't go all inclusive, you wouldn't want all you can drink Vodka etc.

Tans, it looks as good as anything I could find there.  Could find the same/similar standard for £539 each but there may have been add-ons to go on top.  Only thing I would say would be that you could have gone for a fortnight for an extra £250 or so! Who are you flying with?

Only flying with Thomson, but that doesnt matter, decent flight times aswell.

Have a good time fella!  Post the pics back on the forum!

Hurricane season - have fun !

I've been in the Carib. in August, it's a risk but usually ok.  September is the month to miss!
