Travel 4 Leisure Launches Offering Vacation and Travel Tips
Jefferson City, Missouri, April 4, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Jefferson City, Missouri, April 4, 2016 (Newswire) -A new website is helping to connect travelers with information they need to know before taking a vacation or pleasure trip.
Travel 4 Leisure is designed for people who are traveling for fun or pleasure, whether by themselves or as part of a family or other group, according to founder Philip Maasen.
"There are many sites out there for business travelers, but less information for those who are taking a trip for themselves. We wanted to put together as much information as possible in one convenient place."

One piece of advice the site offers is about the benefits of traveling during off-peak times or seasons. There are big advantages to be had, including lower travel costs and accommodation rates, but there are other reasons, as well.
“One great example of saving money by traveling off-peak is flying to the Caribbean during the North American winter months rather than during summer,” the site said. “By traveling off-peak, you will gain a different perspective on travel—especially the added advantage of enjoying your dream destinations without huddling with the masses of tourists during holidays.”
Other tips include ways to vacation on a small budget. The site recommends avoiding souvenirs, planning well in advance, choosing accommodations carefully, and also being careful about food purchases.
“When eating out try to avoid the places that obviously cater to tourists,” the site said. “Find out where the locals eat. Ask around. The smaller family owned places usually have better food at better prices. You may have to go a little out of your way but it is usually worth it for some vacation money savings.”
Maasen said the site will continue to produce posts and articles sharing ways for people to improve their leisure travel experience. The site also offers an Amazon store, where users can purchase a curated selection of travel-related books and more, helping with the planning process.
