Don't stay at a hotel.
Hotel prices can be pretty steep, so when traveling consider some other options. Many cities have apartments or villas vacationers can rent. Hostels are another good option that are very inexpensive, but beware if you're looking for luxury, you won't find it in a hostel. The benefit? Adventures and memories that will last forever!
Eat local foods.
Skip out on the fancy dinners and blend in with the locals! You'll save a lot of money, while enjoying the local dishes. There's no better way to embrace the culture around you then munching on their delicious cuisines. Be cautious to not go overboard, your body might not be used to many foods.
Know the deals.
Don't wait last minute to book a flight! Surprisingly though, it's not best to do it too far in advance either. So when is the right time? According to cheapair.com, 47 days ahead is the prime time to book a flight. Prices usually rise and fall, so monitor the ticket prices and when you see the best deal, snatch it up. Also, avoid busy months around holidays or late summer.
