Inspiration

Kayak Explore: I love poking around and seeing what it costs to fly wherever any time of the year.

Planning

DK Eyewitness Travel Guides: Lots of photos, recommended walking tours, and even removable maps.	Lonely Planet: I use the practical country information and Thorn Tree Forum often.
Rome2Rio: Rome2Rio is my favorite logistical site. Need to get from Point A to Point B? This site will tell you all your options and all the prices.	Tripadvisor: I use Tripadvisor for everything. Their forums are super helpful, and I’m a big fan of their hotel rankings system.

Transportation

Bahn: I use Bahn for almost all of my train bookings in Europe. Extensive site, great customer service.	Orbitz: An old favorite. Great for booking flights and rental cars. Make use of their Orbucks Rewards program.
Google Flights: Google Flights is the perfect wanderlust site. Plot travel anywhere and see what time of year and what trip length is cheapest.

Lodging

Hostelling International: My fav hostel site for budget trips. Save with their membership program.

Hotels.com: My go-to. Love their rewards. AND: Get $100 cash back rebate with code REBATES20.

Vacation Packages

Gate 1 Travel: Love Gate 1 and highly recommend it. I like their independent trips, but I’ve heard really good things about their escorted tours, too.

Day Tours

Big Bus Tours: Discover the great cities of the world with hop-on/hop-off sightseeing!

Viator: Tours for everything. Sign up for their newsletter to get 10% off.

Informational

Centers for Disease Control & Prevention: International vaccinations and health notices.	World Health Organization: I sometimes check the international health organization for a gut check.
Department of State: Look here for travel advisories and country entry/exit information.
