If you’re looking for cheap holidays this year, don’t feel you have to stay within the confines of your own back yard.Whether you choose to go on safari in Kenya, cruise around the Mediterranean or opt for the all-out action of Florida holidays 2012 could be your year to remember. But none of these exciting and extravagant holidays have to come with the luxury price tag. 

Booking a late deal is often one of the best ways of saving money on your holiday, although you may need to make certain compromises – but if you’re open to different holiday options and you’re fairly flexible on how and when you take your trip, this could be the perfect way to save money. Try to be adaptable on departure dates and the airport you fly from, and don’t be too fixed on your style of accommodation either – for example, why insist on a hotel when you might find a much cheaper self-catering apartment?

An alternative tactic is to get organised and book your holiday the moment the new season or brochure has been released. Many tour operators and package holiday agencies will offer tempting deals on advanced bookings to secure your custom, so be alert to these opportunities and get in quick where you can. Naturally, one of the best things about booking a long way in advance is that you get the full spectrum of choice – meaning you can choose exactly the right kind of holiday for you.

And even if you decide to upgrade for a little luxury during your stay, such as opting for a higher grade of hotel or plumping for a plush suite – you know you’ve got plenty of time to pay it off.

So the only question is, where will 2012 take you?
