Wondering when is the best time to travel? We have the answer!

Airfare and accommodation prices vary greatly throughout the year, so the question of when is the best time to travel is completely spot on. Of course, it also depends on the weather conditions at the individual destination and your preferences, but the Bounce website has presented the months and days of the week when it is most worthwhile to travel.

On the online platform, they compared the average prices of hotels in selected vacation spots (as many as 70 destinations were taken into account). All with the aim of discovering the most favorable months and days for travel.

July turned out to be the most expensive month, as prices in as many as eleven destinations rose fairly during this time: including Dubrovnik, Tokyo and Florence. The price difference is absolutely incredible, a night in Oia on Santorini will cost you 496% more in July than in January.

Even May, which turned out to be the most expensive of the ten destinations, is not far behind July. In Moscow, such accommodation can cost you as much as 523% more than in February. For example, September is perfect for visiting Latin American destinations (and at the same time the most affordable). Meanwhile, accommodation prices in New York, Toronto and some European capitals are rising in September.

According to the research, accommodation prices are the most favorable in January (for as many as 19 out of 70 destinations). This means that you will also travel to Rome and Barcelona at the most favorable time. On the other hand, during the summer in the northern hemisphere, it is worthwhile to visit places in the south, for example Sydney and New Zealand, because the accommodation in July is more affordable there.
