travel formula


Explanation:
Googled.

"Reisformule" or "travel formula" is an umbrella term that refers to the overall set-up of your trip. For instance, small groups in mini-vans with excursions and B&B accommodations.
Or fly to Spain with your in-laws, stay in a five-star all-in resort, get drunk and do nothing but argue. :-)
My favourite travel formula is to take my own car, get on a ferry or chunnel to England, travel from village to village and spend my evening and nights in y'olde inns and pubs.

neutral  Kitty Brussaard: Lijkt niet erg gangbaar en verwijst zelfs ook vaak naar een soort 'reisvoeding' voor baby's :-)

  -> Ha, ha, ha! Toch snap je het in de reiscontext meteen. Terwijl 'packages and programs' verwijst naar een pakketreis met een programma van dag tot dag... Je weet wel: 'vanmiddag heeft u vrij om de stad te verkennen'.
