the earlier you book your travels, the cheaper it would be. Look out for early bird savings with airlines and tour companies, and grab yourself a deal before it's too late. Sometimes they even offer free upgrades if you book early.

Then, just before your trip, you should start planning the things you want to do each day. Visiting five museums in a day? Then plan ahead and purchase a multi-visit pass if there is such a thing. As at the local tourist information. Most of the cities and tourist destinations will have something similar and these often give you a bit of discount on individual ticket prices into attractions.
