Epic Trip Planning 101

Many people find the idea of travel awesome, but get overwhelmed by the idea of planning a trip from scratch, or feel that travel adventures are out of their reach. I say bollocks to that. I've taken dozens of trips in the last few years--everything from a domestic long weekend to a few weeks in New Zealand--and have created a planning process that works for every kind of trip.

In this book I lay out every step of my trip planning process, as well as how you can take a good trip and make it truly epic. These aren't just vague suggestions and common sense, but real, specific steps, tools, & resources I use at every step of the process. And then I give you my tips for upgrading a solid itinerary into a truly epic trip.

This guide includes:

• What resources I use for planning•How to keep track of your research and build an itinerary
• Evaluating hotels and rentals to get the best deal
• Finding good flights, and making sure you pick one that is right for you
• Taking your trip to the next level and finding splurge-worthy experiences
• Preparing ahead of time so you're not caught off-guard
• What you need to enjoy yourself on a long flight
• Crucial steps in your first few hours at your destination
• ...and so much more!
