If you are in a new relationship, the first holiday together is a big step. Make sure you discuss it in full, so you both know what you want to get out of the break. Should it be romantic? Should is be fun? Should it be relaxing? Go into the holiday knowing what your expectations are.

Going on holiday together can be great fun, and should be great fun, as long as you are honest. It you love beaches and sunbathing, let them know. If you prefer a skiing trip, put this suggestion forward as well. There will be plenty of ways in which you can compromise to find the right holiday for you.

Choose your accommodation carefully. There are lots of beautiful hotels and apartments around but many are family friendly. Do you really want children ruining your first romantic break together? Choose somewhere peaceful and secluded where you can relax.

Group travel can be a great way to see the world. It is perfect for people who may be travelling alone and don’t want the responsibility of planning everything. It is also ideal if you want to see the sights but without spending too long getting from place to place.

There is an abundance of travel operators offering group tour options, in destinations around the world. Look online and pop into travel agents’ offices to find out what options you have. Make a list of destinations that you would love to visit and prioritise these during your trip.

Whilst travelling is wonderful, it can also be highly stressful. By travelling in a group, a lot of this stress disappears. You will have your accommodation arranged, you will be taken from place to place and you will be able to make new friends who are all in the exact same position as you.

Holidays are all about trying new things and seeing the sights. One of the best ways to see new things is to drive, rather than to catch a plane that takes you straight to your destination. You will see so much more along the way if you decide to drive when you are going on holiday.

Of course, there will be some restrictions, so make sure you know where you can and cannot drive. If you are somewhere looking to go on safari, you will only be allowed in with a guide and a professional driver. Don’t try to access places you shouldn’t go or you could get in a lot of trouble and disturb wildlife along the way.

Hiring a driver is another option if you don’t want to do all the driving yourself. In a lot of countries, driver accommodation is supplied in all main hotels, making it easier for tourists to hire a drive to help them see the country.

Booking your flights is one of the most important parts of preparing for your holiday. If you want to get good prices and book onto the right flights for you, here are some tips from the travel experts on our team:

1. 1. Check the airline out. See if they have a good reputation and customer service policy and read reviews from other customers.
2. 2. Pick the right seats. You should be given the option to choose seats at the time of booking. Get the emergency exit seats with extra legroom if you can. Sometimes you can book these for no extra cost.
3. 3. Book in advance. Choose a flight at least a few months before you are due to go on holiday. This is the most cost effective way of booking.
4. 4. Check in online. You may be charged at the airport if you do not check in online. Make sure you’ve printed everything you need.
