Last minute trips, are they really worth the money?

My husband and I are considering going on a last minute trip very soon, when we get the opportunity. I know that these trips are much more expensive, in general at least, and I am therefore wondering whether it will really be worth it to go on a last minute trip, or should we wait a while longer to go on a planned holiday?

If you need the break, then these trips are worth the money. Besides, who says that they are more expensive compared to traditional holidays? Often you can get very good deals indeed, and save a lot of money in the process. Of course you are also much more effective in your work if you can take an adequate - planned or unplanned - break from your work.

If you are planning it in advance, then I'm not so sure it would be called last minute trip
