Four Effective Ways to Save Money When Traveling

Go travelling in low season 

Many people go travelling at the height of the tourist season, and often visit the tourist hotspots of the time. High demand at specific times of year can lead to hotels, bars and restaurants raise their prices due to suppy and demand. If you go in high season, you should be prepared to spend a lot of money. On the contrary, if you go in low season or to some less developed scenic spots off the beaten track, you’ll save money.

Don't use an agency

You’ll save on preparation time if you go with a travel agency. But almost without exception, travel agencies are profitable organizations; they’ll take money off you along the way. So in order to save money, it’s better to do your research before you go and ignore the urge to use an agency.

Travel by train


Taxis are often expensive and will often raise their prices when they realise you are a tourist. If you don't mind taking a little longer to reach your destination, take the bus or perhaps the train to save a good chunk of money, which you can use for more important things like food or drink.

Choose cheap hotels or hostels


It’s very important to find a comfortable and quiet place to relax after a long time on the road. But it doesn't mean you need to check into in a four star hotel. A cheap hotel or hostel with decent, comfortable living qarters is a better option.
