Ways You Can Travel For Less

By Kevin Wagner


Most people equate traveling around the world to being rich. While this might be true to some extent, it is possible to take a trip without going broke. You may have seen some of your friend posting beautiful pictures of the destinations they have been to. The main trick is to plan and save for the trip in advance. If traveling around the world is one of the items on your bucket list, then the following tips will help you travel for less.

One way of saving on your airplane cost is to purchase one ticket to cover your destinations instead of a ticket for each destination. This is effective for people who plant to visit more than one place. Please note that such packages may have some conditions such as traveling to one direction or visiting your destinations within a year. If you have several places to visit, then this tip might save you a few thousands.

In addition to the above, you should also consider looking for a package that has meals in it. This will reduce the food expense. Some people tend to dine throughout their journey thus ending up spending more money than they should have because there are other options you may choose from. For instance, eating local foods, which are usually cheaper than hotel food. You could also plan to prepare your own food.

Did you know your credit cards can save you money if you are traveling to a foreign country? There are some cards that attract zero fees for foreign transactions. To enjoy such benefit, you have to notify your bank before traveling. Some credit cards can earn your airline miles.

The cost of luggage contributes significantly to the overall trip cost. If you can take care of this element alone you will save a lot, especially when visiting far destinations. Most airlines charge in excess of $25 for one bag. And if you exceed the weight limit, some of them may charge you more. So, if you were to carry several bags, you might end up paying for things you might not even use during your trip. Another advantage of small luggage is that you reduce chances of losing your bag.

Did you know that you can spend a quarter the cost of your accommodation by avoiding luxurious hotels? In fact, there are several hostels that welcome people of all ages. Besides this, you could also stay in a peer to peer residence which you can still enjoy privacy while spending much less than staying in hotels. Interestingly, these facilities have nearly same amenities offered by hotels such as meals and free Wi-Fi.

Letting a travel agent arrange your foreign trip could save you some money. Alternatively, take advantage of deals sites such as Groupon and LivingSocial to find cost-effective deals that cover accommodation, flight charges, and car rentals.

Lastly, you may consider enrolling in clubs or groups membership that has tourism benefits. Some employers also offer travel perks to their staff, so if you have such benefits why not take advantage of them to visit your dream destinations.
