At dealchecker we do love being able (paid, even!) to gaze at stunning pictures of the world’s natural scenery, though it can bring on extreme bouts of jealousy that we’re not there right now. And it’s pretty hard to beat a good lake picture. That’s why we’re singing the praises of heading to a lake [...]

February 7, 2013 Comments OffWith winter dragging on, thoughts here are turning to what we’ll spend our summer holiday doing – and there are some great early booking offers available at the moment! Now, we know money can be a bit tight at this time of year, which is why we’ve collected together some great holiday ideas at very [...]
Just look at Kos’s Diamond Deluxe Hotel. LOOK AT IT. Now try to tell me that you don’t want to go there. I simply won’t believe you. This sophisticated boutique hotel on the Greek island of Kos is all style (with substance) as evidenced by the crisp minimalist architecture, brilliant white furnishings, extensive pool area [...]
A deal this fabulous deserves a pun to match its magnitude, hence why I’ve turned our title into a L’Oreal advert. If this whole blustery, freezing December thing is getting you down, get clicking quick sharp onto this amazing offer from Travel Interaction! “Seven nights in sunny Kos from only £229 per person? Never!” I [...]
Here at dealchecker, we consider ourselves to be pacifists at heart. We avoid fisticuffs outside kebab shops at 2am, we probably wouldn’t slap someone unless really provoked and would probably rather watch a film with Matthew McConaughey in it than one about someone getting the bejesus whipped out of them for 122 minutes (yes, Mel [...]
With Olympics madness well and truly enveloping London as we speak, we’ve been reminded of where it all began – Greece! Perhaps that’s why this offer from Aldemar Holidays is looking tip-top to us at the moment – or maybe it’s the gorgeous hotel on offer! Either way, we’re pretty impressed. This offer includes a [...]
Me and eight others went on our annual lads holiday recently to one of the most popular clubbing destinations in Europe, Kavos, on the island of Corfu in Greece. We got off to a dramatic start, when I nearly missed our 3.45am Gatwick Flyer, and the drama wasn’t about to finish there. After a bad [...]
We know you lot love to go on holiday and party – who doesn’t? But arrests of British tourists are on the rise, and we’re feeling all Mother Hen about it. Spain, Thailand and the USA have seen a bigger increase than anywhere else, so holidaymakers here should be especially aware. We want you to [...]
Football fans are eagerly awaiting tomorrow’s Euro 2012 first kick-off, marking nearly a month of matches ahead. We could make predictions, we could back England, we could write off Spain or say France will be a walkover – but we decided to stick to what we know. And that’s holiday destinations! Group A – Czech [...]
As you lovely dealchecker readers know, we never tire of looking for great deals with huge savings and extra freebies. We’re also pretty excited about new things, so this deal has been causing quite a stir! Cruise Nation are offering you the chance to set sail on the Mediterranean onboard brand new Costa Fascinosa. PLUS [...]
I love watersports, and have tried my hand at canoeing, kayaking and windsurfing, plus surfing is one of my favourite things to do ever, so this deal really grabbed my attention! What’s not to love – you get to go to a beautiful beach resort in Vassiliki on the island of Lefkas, stay at the [...]
If weather in Britain during the month of April were a train, it would surely only stop at the stations of Hopelesstown and Depressingville. Peering gloomily out of our rain-soaked windows, it’s become painfully apparent that the dealchecker office have mostly been dreaming of afternoons spent abroad, sipping perfectly chilled wine and gazing out over [...]
What’s not to love about this deal? Essentially you get your own home in the sunshine for half the usual cost. Simple huh? James Holiday Villas are one of the UK’s leading villa holiday agents. That means a pretty ginormous choice of villas. And that means that there’s bound to be something to suit all. [...]
As sunny March has turned into wintry April, here at dealchecker HQ we’re longing for some sunshine to warm us up! This week’s pick of our Real Deals is all about Corfu where you will find luxury sunshine on the cheap – our two favourite things (not counting cake). Qwerty Travel have really pulled out [...]
We suspect that the tech team takes their fair share of exotic holidays, but since we all shout louder than them this fact has escaped us until now. But that’s all changing as Ian went to Greece with his wife and then spilt the beans to me. No tech team members were harmed in the [...]
Food and travel are as intertwined as James and his Giant Peach. Whether you’re chowing down on scrumptious sushi in Japan or gobbling goulash in Budapest (were you Hungary? Sorry) sampling the culinary offerings of the country you’re visiting as as important – in my opinion – to your cultural experience as visiting twelve cathedrals. [...]
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 [...]

January 10, 2012 Comments OffEvery year, the National Geographic Traveler magazine compiles its pick of the top 20 travel destinations for the coming year.
Ever since reading Captain Corelli’s Mandolin as a teenager I’ve been wanting to visit the Greek island of Cephallonia (Kefalonia). The book deals with so many manifestations of love (all of which are trampled over by the film, I might add), but it seems that the beauty of the island transfixes many of the characters [...]
Time for another foodie focus and just as I was beginning to wonder what corner of the world I would opt for this time, George, the dealchecking Sales Manager came to my aide. George has entered a ‘Come Dine With Me’ challenge with eight of his closest friends, including his wife. This is the second [...]
