Genius Tips to Travel on a Budget



Have you dream of visiting those beautiful landscapes or the sandy beaches with glittering waters that you have seen in website or pictures? Well, here are some genius tips that will help you achieve your travel goals.

Go Incognito While Booking Tickets
While making an online flight booking make sure you use a private or incognito window when you are looking for flights. Clear your browser cookies before you begin because websites usually remember the price that they have quoted before. Begin afresh and notice the difference! Also when you are booking flights try to book it for a Tuesday. If you can plan it in a way that you return on Tuesday too you will definitely save extra cash. Flights are in cheapest on this day of the week.

Save Cost of Visa
Once you have managed to get discount airline tickets for you lets proceed to the visa which also happens to be expensive. Look for countries that don’t charge for visa’s for short time visits and you can save a lot of cash here too. There many countries such as UAE, Portugal, Belgium, Singapore and many more. However, look into the details before you can shortlist a country.

Book on the Day of Sales
There is another cool way to save you cash on bookings. When people are busy shopping for mobiles or cooking range on Black Friday you should be heading over to flight booking websites to avail discount airline tickets and hotel rooms.

Book Everything in Advance
A holiday should be planned early and since things are much easier with internet we can do things cheap flight tickets, bus tickets, train journeys, hostel or hotel should be booked in advance. Last moment bookings always cost more and you have to compromise with whatever you are offered.

Choose Off-Peak Times
Every country has an off-peak time. Travelling at those times can save you a decent amount. Eastern Europe, Southeast Asian countries, Latin America and even Africa have some of the most beautiful travel destinations. It may be cloudy and rainy in a certain country but it definitely doesn’t make it lesser beautiful. The landscapes will still look pretty. However, the peak-off time will be different for each country so make sure you do a proper research.

Travel Light
Keep your wallet heavy by saving on check-in luggage charges. Instead bring back memories from the place you visit. If you have extra space left and you know you will not be charged then bring back stuff from there.

Book Hostels
If you keep on saving then hostels are wallet friendly. Instead you can use the cash to roam the place. Staying with families that offer bed and breakfast is also a great way to save. They are really cheap and safe too. If you can find a good hostel to stay you may also make some friends with who you can explore the destination together.

So, pin your destination and begin making your travel plans!
