The biggest challenge I have when planning a holiday is ensuring a great experience for everyone. So I start planning my trip at least two months in advance. A study by Expedia shows that most travelers visit around 35 websites and spend more than 100 days planning a trip!

My planning begins at search — for flights and hotels. It ends after the vacation. Between the start and the end lie my efforts to craft the perfect bucket list. This involves hours of searching the internet, reading travel blogs, and asking friends. Until now, I had no convenient way of collecting all the ideas I came across the internet. But that has now changed thanks to HopBucket. The great recommendations from HopBucket also means that I no longer start planning my trip two months in advance.

HopBucket is the tool that will help you craft a customized curated list of things to do on your trip.

Your time-energy budget

Your energy bar — fill it now!

You want your trip to be perfect for you and your co travelers. You don’t want to miss out on any of the great experiences. But there is only so much time and energy you can spend on planning a trip. You can’t take a few days off for planning a vacation! Out of your limited time-energy-budget, you spend the most on bookings, discounts, and travel shopping. This leaves out the two important questions of what-to-see and when. Let’s see how HopBucket can help you quickly answer these questions with very little effort.
