Ok, so we’ve got through January now, but that doesn’t mean that you have to give up on those resolutions of yours! Today I’m here to help out all of you who wanted to swim more – and what better way than with some tempting holidays. Take the plunge and go for it as a [...]
Cycling is a craze sweeping the nation. If it’s not David Cameron cycling to work (complete with car behind to carry all the important documents) and Boris Johnson telling anyone who will listen about London’s new blue cycle superhighways, it’s Bristol being named one of the best places to cycle in the UK – despite [...]
Falling in love, it would appear, is the easy part. It’ s what comes after that can prove a little trickier! Keeping your loved one happy with the necessary treats, trips and gifts can be exhausting, which is where Gift Ideas for Two have come to the rescue! They’re offering amazing weekend breaks for two [...]
A lousy church clock? An Eiffel Tower keyring? A Bob Marley dreadlock hat? We have all three. As you probably know, we’re kind of into travel. When we’re not talking about it, writing about it or dreaming about it, we’re doing it. Travelling, that is. Now, like most offices we are contractually obliged to bring [...]
We don’t feature that many Ireland deals in our weekly newsletter (not on purpose, we promise!) so when we come across one like this we’re pretty impressed with our deal digging savvy. This amazing offer from Diamond Resorts International® is offering up self catering holiday villas in picturesque Bodyke from as little as £40 per [...]
A recent visit to that holy grail of paradise islands – Barbados – confirmed my suspicions that Caribbean cuisine is among the most lip-smackingly, waistband-swellingly delicious in the world. Although admittedly, the island is populated with restaurants serving up Italian, French, Japanese – just about everything but Caribbean, it sometimes seems – there are still [...]
Dry land…or wet sea….dry land…or wet sea…This conundrum is surely one of the most pressing and urgent decisions of our modern age. Image from ecoturkey.com Erm, sort of. But if you are the type of person who gets genuinely stuck when deciding between digestives or hobnobs, you might like this double-packin’ combination of holiday goodness. [...]
We’re always talking about food here at dealchecker HQ, what snacks someone should run to the shop to get, what we like to eat on holiday, or just sharing what we ate for dinner the night before. But one thing’s for sure, Christmas is a time when we all indulge too much. I don’t know [...]
You can tell it’s time to pick the favourites one of the Real Deals when the editorial team sends out a sigh of relief that the weekly newsletter email is sent! This week it’s my choice and I really like the look of Cruise Nation’s offer for a seven-night Eastern Mediterranean cruise on Norwegian Jade [...]

January 10, 2012 Comments OffEvery year, the National Geographic Traveler magazine compiles its pick of the top 20 travel destinations for the coming year.
Ah it’s that time of year when we resolve to overhaul our whole life, making it healthier, happier, more productive and so on, and 2012 is no different here at dealchecker HQ. But when the hangover starts to clear even simple resolutions can more like a mountain than a molehill. Especially when it’s howling a [...]
Now initially I thought there was nothing strange at all about the time I stayed on a historic fort in the middle of the English Channel. But then we spotted Fort Clonque amid the weird and wonderful hotels of unusualhotelsoftheworld.com, and I realised that it could be considered a little, well, bizarre. The best way [...]
What lasts for ten hours, makes lots of noise and looks ridiculous? …It can only be the dealchecker Christmas party! Last years debauchery was admittedly a hard act to follow, and with the recent departure of our illustrious former ‘Fun Director’ (Yes, his real title. Really! Not really), our chief usurper of the Party Throne, [...]
As the Christmas songs never tire of reminding us, Christmas comes but once a year and Santa Claus is coming to town. But certainly an important part of Christmas for me as a child was heading off somewhere to see Father Christmas before the big day, so I could put in my “order” and get [...]
One of the best things about travelling the world is that you get to see the small – and big – differences that define each country as unique. From culture, to religion to food; diversity is what makes the world interesting, and nowhere is this demonstrated more than in this list of the worlds most [...]
Although we like to think our bright colours and clear sections make dealchecker pretty easy to navigate, we thought we’d bring you, our faithful dealcheckers, our official Users Guide to all the different services we provide, just so you know exactly what’s on offer! We’re pretty proud of what we do, and we thought we’d [...]

Well if you’re after a guaranteed white Christmas this year, then check out our fab last minute [...]
We can’t stop talking about Christmas here at dealchecker HQ – if it’s not the Christmas party it’s Secret Santa, Christmas Trees, or just how many of our advent calendar chocolates we’ve already “accidentally” eaten! So I got down to the serious business of asking people their favourite part of the run-up to the big [...]
We’ve often said that the skies the limit when it comes to finding the best travel deals in the land…and never has that been more true than with this incredible hot air ballooning deal (We’ve also often said that we’ll stop making bad puns in blog posts. Sincere apologies.) If you’re anything like us, hot [...]
We asked for your tips and tricks for sunny Sharm el Sheikh and you certainly came through with the goods – thanks for all your suggestions! Here’s what our winner, Rosy B, thinks (it sounds like she’ll be putting that snorkel to good use!) “If you’re going diving, pick a good school. My favourite is [...]
