Travelling to exotic places dones\u2019t always have to cost a fortune and you certainly don\u2019t have to win the lottery to travel the whole world \u2013 not if you know how to use your pennies.  We bring you a few clever tips to help you travel on a budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#1. Plan, plan, plan!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While making impromptu travel plans gives you a high, it also ensures that you run out of your savings. If you\u2019re planning a holiday on a budget, the first thing to do is plan everything. Most people confuse this with planning an hour-by-hour itinerary. Instead, you need to have a clear idea of the things you will be doing and the places you want to visit. This reduces your chances of unexpected spendings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2. Travel Off Season<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The travel industry hikes its prices during holidays, especially during school holidays. Research the best times to visit your destination and travel just after or before these days. This is also known as the \u2018shoulder season\u2019, where you\u2019ll still have an awesome trip and it won\u2019t break the bank. Airlines and hotels generally offer lower prices to attract more people during such times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#3. Become Accomodation-Savvy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The best way to travel on a budget is to swap expensive hotel rooms for AirBnbs or dorm rooms. It\u2019s almost half the price and allows you to explore like a local. In fact, most hosts also arrange tours and give insider-tips and suggestions for the best tourist spots and eateries to visit!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#4. Pack Right<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The only shopping you should do from your holiday is shopping for souvenirs. Make a proper packing list to ensure that you have everything you\u2019ll need. It\u2019s always wise to pack a pair of jeans, a waterproof jacket and a warm hoodie no matter where you\u2019re going. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

#5. Book in Advance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether it\u2019s accommodation or flights, booking them in advance is always a good idea. Not only do you get the best of the deals but you also ensure that you have a guaranteed return ticket back home. I mean, running out of money in a foreign land is never ideal\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#6. Say Yes to Public Transport<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Trains and buses are cheaper than planes. We all know that, but how many of us actually travel via them? Plan your travel dates wisely. For instance, an overnight journey by train means one less night at the hotel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

#7. Don\u2019t Eat Away Your Money<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cheap lunches are available everywhere from local fresh food markets to supermarkets. If you\u2019re staying at an AirBnb, chances are the host will allow you to cook your own meals. If not, wander the city a little before picking the restaurant. This gives you a chance to compare the prices beforehand. Drinking alcohol with meals will add up to both your waistline as well as your wallet. Switch to water to keep yourself hydrated and your wallet loaded! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Takeaway<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You can travel to any location on a budget if you plan properly. Make sure you research right in order to grab the best of the deals! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
