BOOKING.COM

We have been using Booking.com for years.  When we took our 6 week trip to Europe it helped us keep track of all our reservations all in one place so that we knew we weren't left without a room.  Free cancellations on most reservations which gives you peace of mind when plans change. Most of our posts with accomodations links throughout our blog and podcast will be with Booking.com because that's who we use.

VIATOR

We have been using Viator for years.  When we took our 6 week trip to Europe we booked ALL our cruise excursions using Viator and it saved us 50% off what the cruise was charging with a guarantee to get back to the ship in time.  Free cancellations on most reservations  which gives you peace of mind when plans change or when you find a different tour.  I've also done tours by myself through Viator in Portugal. I was able to explore additional areas of Portugal and meet new people thanks to Viator.
