How to save money by traveling?

Now people's living standards have been greatly improved, and many friends have begun to travel. Tourism is full of unknowns and adventures for tourists, and it is also very expensive and time-consuming. How can we save money and have fun?

Travel is a big expense. The following methods can save you at least half the money when you travel. Don't ask me how I know, because I am poor and like to travel. Of course, I am not a poor traveler.

First, the arrangement of travel time 1, if you have free time, you like to travel. Don't travel during the long vacation. Whether it's eating, living or traveling, the cost will definitely be three times that of non-long vacation. This is called off-peak travel.

2. If you don't have free time and like to travel, for example, if you are an office worker, try to change shifts with your colleagues, try to be on duty on holidays and get high overtime pay. When the holiday is over and the high price is over, we can start again.

3. At the same time, travel time, avoid popular punching places, and take some relatively cold spots. In fact, during long holidays like National Day and Spring Festival, there are too many people in many popular scenic spots to see the scenery at all. All you see are people. You spend a lot of money, but your travel experience is poor.

4. Off-season travel, such as going to Harbin, most people go to see the snow scene in winter, so there won't be many people in winter. You can go in summer and see beautiful women the next day. You might say that I am a beautiful woman. What am I looking at? Let others see you.

Second, the means of transportation 1, self-driving travel is the most convenient, but it is definitely tiring and expensive to travel too far. Some people will argue that I just like driving and I can see the scenery along the way. I have traveled more than 10,000 kilometers, and I have the most say.

2. When choosing transportation, take long-distance plane, medium-distance high-speed rail, short-distance self-driving or car. I have compared these. The most expensive way is to rent a car.

3, the most economical means of transportation in the city is to take a bus, download a map on your mobile phone, search, which bus to take, at which station to transfer, and how many stops to your destination. Obviously, it is mainly economic. Don't say you won't. You really won't trust me personally.

4. fly. Book tickets in advance, the earlier you book tickets, the cheaper it is, and you can also make a trip according to the fare. Every day, there are special air tickets for the departure city on major travel websites, and the special air tickets have time points. For example, if I am in Kunming, the fastest flight ticket from Kunming to Lijiang is 99 on June 5438+05 next month, then I will try to travel to Lijiang on June 5438+05 next month. This method requires you to be relatively flexible in time.

Iii. Accommodation arrangements 1. Book in advance, especially for special festivals. For example, if you want to go to Xishuangbanna for the Songkran Festival, you must arrange it in advance. If you go to the hotel temporarily, you may not find it and the price will be very expensive.

2. Search the destination hotel on the travel website, find the front desk phone number of the hotel you want to book, compare it with the website price first, and then negotiate. Communication in advance means that you don't have to stay in his hotel and you can get the lowest price.

3. After arriving at the front desk of the hotel, directly negotiate with the front desk, from the farmhouse to the five-star foreign-related hotel. My bargaining success rate is over 80%. The way is to pretend to be poor, but I especially like this hotel. If the authority of the front desk is not enough, it is best to let the front desk contact the manager on duty or something. Each level has priority.

4. Many hotel chains will give discounts to their members, and the entry threshold is very low. I have many hotel chain members who like to travel, so it's no big deal to add a few more members.

There are many points on the travel website, which can be used to exchange air miles or accommodation. You should make full use of these benefits, including air tickets and hotel packages. You can do the math yourself or you can choose.

Fourth, catering consumption 1. Try to solve breakfast in the hotel. Many hotel rooms have free breakfast, and most of the time they visit scenic spots at noon. Everyone knows that the food in the scenic spot is expensive and unpalatable, so it's best to buy some dry food for lunch. Most hotels check in at dinner time. At this time, you can slowly find a favorite restaurant to eat.

2. Every place has local famous snacks. Make a group on the food website in advance to find out the price. Ask the locals which one they like to go to and which one is the most authentic. If the locals don't eat the famous local snack bar, it must be a monopoly for tourists. Don't go.

3. Many individual inns can cook meals together. A person, 20 yuan 30 yuan, has more money than ordering his own food. You can also make some traveling companions on the trip. The key is to save money.

5. Avoid high consumption and prevent consumption traps. Railway stations, bus stations and airports are all high-risk places for smuggling passengers. Don't eat or buy things in these areas unless you have to, or even get too close to them. The price is too expensive, and some places are still very unsafe. In fact, many hotels are a bit remote, but they all have shuttle bus service.

Don't buy souvenirs at tourist attractions. Souvenirs are the same in many places, with no special features and not cheap. Don't buy expensive things in tourist attractions, especially things for which you can't judge the price. In earlier years, tour guides in Yunnan could get a rebate of 1 10,000 to 20,000 a day, all of which were paid by tourists. I really need to buy some accompanying gifts, which can be bought in the local supermarket.

6. You can save 1 money by preparing before going out. Know the weather and scenic spots of the destination before departure, and avoid being forced to buy clothes, shoes, umbrellas and other items due to weather changes. Temporary purchases may be thrown away at once, resulting in waste. For example, if you have a plan to swim in a tourist destination, you'd better bring your swimsuit in advance. First, the scenic spots are expensive, but you may not be satisfied.

2. The best equipment for traveling is a backpack, which can hold a lot of things, free your hands as much as possible, and reduce the chance of losing things. Backpack has many pockets, so it is convenient to take many commonly used things, such as water, charging treasure and so on. Remember not to lose anything, not to lose anything is to save money.

If you are a tourist, or you are not short of money at all, you can float over. If you think this article is helpful to you, please follow me. I am a wandering pig, I like traveling, and I prefer to share things with others on the trip.
