A few simple tips on how to make your vacation abroad as cheap as possible.
Instructions
Step 1
Early booking usually saves you a lot of money. Buy a tour (especially plane tickets) as early as possible, at least a few months before your vacation, and ideally half a year or even earlier.
Step 2
Stay tuned for special offers from airlines and travel agencies: periodically, very profitable options appear. Choose the most suitable airline from the point of view of the "price-quality" parameter, analyze the prices, follow the promotions. If you want to use the services of intermediaries (travel agencies), opt for a company that specializes in your chosen country, and also offers affordable options at prices.
Step 3
Last minute tours are often offered at tempting prices. Pay attention to the relevant promotions.
Step 4
Self-organization of the tour allows you to save on travel agency services. If there is a desire and opportunity, you can independently buy air tickets, book a hotel, take out insurance, get a visa, schedule a transfer, etc.
Step 5
Pay attention to visa-free countries - it is possible to reduce costs without applying for a visa.
Step 6
Consider the seasonality of the country you want to visit. By planning your trip at a time when there is not a large influx of tourists, you will save a lot.
Step 7
If you wish, you can save on a flight (a cheaper flight), a hotel (a more modest hotel), guides and tour guides (prepare in advance for excursions and make them yourself).
Step 8
Abroad there is an opportunity to save on food. For example, buying groceries at the supermarket, or eating at a humble cafe. A good option is a room with a small kitchen, where you can cook yourself.
Step 9
Travel tickets purchased at your holiday destination will help you to reduce the cost of public transport. It is possible to rent a car - here at your discretion.
Step 10
If you are planning to actively use the telephone connection, buy a local SIM card.
Step 11
Remember that bargaining in the market is an opportunity to reduce the cost of a product.
Step 12
Issue tax free for large purchases at the airport, a check is required.
