If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go? How would you get there? What would you do? Where would you stay? How much would it cost?

Traveling not only makes you smarter by expanding your mind and your knowledge about the world, it makes you happy and reduces stress.

Everyone needs to learn how to plan a vacation and everything that is required to do it successfully.

After concluding this project you will be able to plan a vacation to any place in the world!

In this fun project, you will take on a challenge to plan the best vacation while spending the least amount of money. 

First, you will pick your favorite vacation place. After that, you will research and find important information about that place, including how to get there and where to stay. 

You will make a travel plan that includes fun things to do and see. You will also learn about local food and choose the best restaurants to eat at. 

To help you keep track of your money, you will create a budget to plan your expenses. 

Finally, you will share your amazing vacation plan with the class in an audiovisual presentation.

Tropical vacation? A city escape?  Exciting theme parks? A secluded nature retreat?

Research in 3 different sources which are the best vacation destinations for 2025. This will help you expand your horizons and open your mind!

Then, on your notebook, write a composition about your dream vacation spot. 

The composition must include:

1. The place you chose.

2. The reasons why you chose this place over every other place.

3. Who would you want to take with you and why.

4. Write your 3 sources of information.

Write between 150 and 200 words.

The first thing you need to have is factual information about your destination.

Research in 3 or more sources and find the following information about your destination:

1. Location (continent, country,  state or region, surrounding cities, important geography).

2. Average temperatures and rainfall (to select desired traveling dates).

3. Interesting facts (cultural, social, historical, political, economic).

4. Add pictures, images or video.

5. Cite your sources in APA format.

Put all this information in a digital format (pages, keynote, notes, etc.) so you can use it later.

Remember to paraphrase, plagiarism is not permitted.

Once you are done, send to your teacher for revision.

Now you know how you are getting there and where you are staying, it's time to plan what you are doing while you are there.

Which places are you interested in visiting? What activities do you plan on doing? Consider the length of you stay so you can take advantage of the time you have there.

You will have to do thorough research to find out not only the cost but the time which they are available (service hours).

Try to do you search in local webpages and the webpages directly from the attractions, since they have first hand and updated  information on operation hours and cost.

Remember to save all the information for your presentation, as well as pictures or videos, and cite your sources in  APA format.

Once you have everything,  add each concept to your budget.

Turn your work in for revision.
