How cheaper? Is it better to buy tickets in advance or a week before departure??
I bought a tour a month ago for 60,000 rubles. There was a week left before departure, the cost of the tour to the same hotel, 40,000!!! Very upset. Tell me, when is the best time to buy tickets with minimal losses?

If everyone knew when to buy, then everyone would do it ...

well, actually there are no more places for this price, but anyway, if there were offers, someone bought it! Here is the question for "experienced" travelers: when in practice is it more profitable to buy.

The question is difficult! There is the concept of early booking, there are last-minute vouchers, there is the concept of a hotel in the foot. For me, the best option for early booking, but this is if you are sure that nothing will happen in the remaining time before the holiday, last-minute vouchers - you may not get that rest, which you are counting on, since it is unlikely that the hotels will be the most in demand, here are those that are "in the foot", but the tours will be cheap.
Here, apparently, your case is one of those, there was one price, but the vouchers were not sold out and fell in price.

yesterday I bought my parents an early booking tour from Coral for May 14th. that is, now we have a week before departure is considered an early booking ...
but I liked in Coral that tracking places on the flight is available. TA is under our house and after updating the info and seeing that there were 3 seats left on the flight, we just went and bought a tour for 300 yo cheaper than it was last week.

usually people plan, look at prices and sometimes, you can guess the price drop.

no one can guarantee you that there will be a price reduction on certain dates, you need to constantly monitor prices, seats on the flight. there are points of the season when the price drops, all travel agents know it, but no one knows how much the price can fall, and as a rule, burning ones come from large cities with a large number of flights, and not in regions with 1 flight per week))))

Dont be upset. It may turn out that the price of the tour has fallen, and there are no more seats on the plane. Last-minute tours can only be afforded by those who are not bound by obligations at work, at any moment they packed up and went. But for this you need to monitor prices regularly and be aware of the price level and rating of hotels. So we got lucky a few times. But they managed to book literally half a day in advance, and then "STOP". The minimum time before departure was three days (Egypt). We gathered in the Emirates for the last time in five days. It happened that they booked in advance, and then the price, on the contrary, increased. So you can't guess. It all depends on the country, season and number of days of the tour and the city of departure. In the high season it is better in advance, as you can get "anywhere", decent hotels may already be in the STOP and prices may increase from the original price list or there will be problems with seats on the plane. Most of the last-minute tours are week-long.
