Tours + Discounts

Viator - I often use Viator to book tours, it’s more popular for things to do in Europe or the Americas. It’s a very reliable platform and I love its ease of use.

Klook - One of the most reliable platforms for booking tickets, activities, and day trips across Asia and my preferred platform that I always use, especially when I want instant confirmation.

GetYourGuide - I use GetYourGuide to find day trip or half day tours, as the platform specializes in giving you a curated list of quality tours from great operators and local guides.

Hotels + Accommodation

Agoda - For hotels and accommodation specifically in Asia, Agoda is my favorite. Their exclusive deals and easy-to-use filters help me find great stays without spending hours searching.

Booking - My go-to platform for booking hotels anywhere in the world. With tons of reviews, flexible cancellation, and a huge range of options, it makes finding the perfect stay super easy. Also their prices are displayed as-is, meaning no hidden costs, and their deals page always has something going on.

HostelWorld - On the off chance that I do stay at a hostel, I use HostelWorld to find a nice place to stay at.

Flights + Transportation

Trip.com - I love using Trip.com to “window shop” for affordable flights. They make it super easy to compare prices, find flexible options, and also to score great deals on international flights.

12Go - My top pick for booking trains, buses, ferries, and even private transfers in Asia. Everything is al in one place and it’s great for having a smooth, stress-free journey without the hassle of lining up at stations and figuring out schedules.

Kiwi.com - I use Kiwi to book cheap flights. Their smart search combines multiple airlines and routes to find the cheapest or fastest flights, making it perfect for saving a bit of money on an upcoming trip.
