]]> Comment on Syria Holidays from Tailormade Explore by Val Stevenson http://www.plans2travel.co.uk/2009/05/05/syria-holidays-from-tailormade-explore/comment-page-1/#comment-8422 Val Stevenson Thu, 22 Oct 2009 17:41:42 +0000 http://www.plans2travel.co.uk/?p=720#comment-8422 Well, it depends how tailormade you want your holiday to be, really. We booked and paid for 10 days in boutique hotels in Syria, had a catastrophically inefficient and hugely stressful run-up to the holiday, and ended up in 5-star hotels - which we specifically did not want - and with a whacking excess amount to cover it.

Renting an <a href="http://www.ibizacalling.com/ibiza_accommodation/ibiza_villas" rel="nofollow">Ibiza Villa</a> was cost effective too as we were able to buy food from the local shops. We also rented a car and could explore the surrounding areas and see different beaches. The weather was great for October too.

]]> Comment on Ski Instructor Courses as a Gap Year Option by Domenic http://www.plans2travel.co.uk/2008/08/10/ski-instructor-courses-as-a-gap-year-option/comment-page-1/#comment-8188 Domenic Thu, 16 Apr 2009 20:20:12 +0000 http://www.plans2travel.co.uk/?p=519#comment-8188 When looking at doing an instructor course its important to check to see exactly what is included. How much training is there (can vary from 10 hours to 33 hours a week), what qualifications have the coaches got, what exam fees are included (level 1 and two or just level 1?) what extras do you have to pay for? Most courses include some shadowing of lessons – check to see if it is ‘shadowing’ or is it ‘unpaid labour’. You should also see if it is possible to stay on after the course and do some real teaching, this is much more valuable on your CV than just having paid to do a course.

While there are a plenty of great hotels to choose from, the last time I went to the UK, I had been adviced by my mother to book a room in the Express by <a HREF="http://www.hiexslough.co.uk" rel="nofollow">Holiday Inn Slough</A> (http://www.hiexslough.co.uk/). From the first look at my room, I knew I had made the right choice. It was beautifully furnished and offered an awesome view of the town. Besides, the service went out of the way to see that all my needs were taken care of. The best part about staying in the hotel is that the rates are extremely competitive.
