If you have booked a holiday abroad then you may start to think about what excursions you may like to do when you are there. Depending on location, you may be offered a range of activities such as going to a place of interest such as a temple or local market, scuba diving or snorkelling, boat trips or Water Park / theme park day trips. These trips are usually offered by your tour operator but also by local companies. Local companies do tend to charge less for what is essentially the same trip but you may feel happier booking with your tour guide rather than a company you have not heard of before.
Try and compare the trips and see if there is any difference. Also look online for reviews of what other people have said about the company and if possible what they have said about the trip that you want to go on.
Booking in advance can be easier as you know it is done and paid for but you may find that you get a better deal by waiting to book until you get to the resort. If the trip is very popular then you may not want to leave it until you arrive in case it is fully booked on the days that you can go.
