Post When traveling on a budget it’s best to keep in mind
Hi

When traveling on a budget it’s best to keep in mind the following points:

1. Travel in the off-peak seasons. You can save up to as much as fifty per cent off air flights and accommodation costs if you plan to travel in low season times.

2. Stay away from popular tourist spots (unless they are on your ‘must-see’ list). If you can go off the beaten track with your destinations, things can be cheaper to see and do and your cultural experiences will be richer.

3. Try camping. Not only is it the cheapest form of accommodation it’s a great way to get up close and personal to nature. It’s the best way to see National Parks and Heritage listed areas.

4. Look for special travel offers (or packages). But make sure you check everything that they include - and don’t include.

Keep sharing and reading
thanks

Hi

Here are more tips

Get a work permit if you aim to gain employment while traveling overseas. Working can help subsidize places that aren’t so cheap, such as Europe and Australia.

Look for good exchange rates on the dollar. This may help you decide which country to travel to.

Think about shortening your visit to destinations that are expensive and increasing your length of stay in cheaper places.

Where possible use your credit card. The exchange rate is better.

When staying in a hotel, avoid paying for ‘extras’. Don’t touch anything from the honor bar. Don’t watch the in-house movies and don’t use the hotel phone. And try not to use room service too much!

thanks

hello
Those all points are correct and I always consider them before traveling anywhere. However, they are not implementing all over the world in equivalent ways. So, it is also the most important that you read the travel reviews before traveling. They are really helpful for decision and you can get lots info about the place where you want to visit.

Best Regards,
