Agent: Of course. What kind of holiday do you have in mind? Do you prefer relaxing on the beach or visiting interesting places?

Susan: A bit of both, really. We’d like to be near the sea, but we also enjoy history and good food.

Agent: Then I would recommend a small town on the south coast of Italy. The beaches are quiet, and there are old streets and churches to explore. The local restaurants are famous for fresh fish.

Paul: That sounds wonderful. How long would we stay?

Paul: That sounds wonderful. How long would we stay?

Agent: Most people take a week, but you could stay for ten days if you want more time. A week costs about nine hundred euros per person, including the flight and the hotel.

Susan: Hmm, that’s a little more than we planned to spend. Is there anything cheaper?

Agent: Yes. If you travel in June instead of July, the price is about twenty percent lower. The weather is still warm, and there are fewer tourists.

Paul: That’s a good idea. Susan, what do you think?

Paul: That’s a good idea. Susan, what do you think?

Susan: I agree. June is better for us anyway, because the children have exams in July. Can we take the children with us?

Agent: Certainly. The hotel has a swimming pool and a game room for young people. Children under twelve get a discount.
