These are great tips for saving money on travel. On my trip to Scotland in July my sister and I rented an apartment with a full kitchen for our entire stay. We saved so much money by prepping most of our own meals. I’ll definitely do that on future trips.

You are so right about traveling locally having so many benefits! This article has brought back so many happy childhood memories. My parents took us on a vacation during every school holidays and it was always road trips until I finished high school. We usually stayed in holiday homes with kitchens where we could prepare our own meals.

Great Post. Although I no longer have kids at home that I travel with, many of these recommendations come in handy for myself, as a solo traveller. I totally agree with you that it’s not necessary to hop a plane every time you want to travel. Road trips are some of the best adventures and are cheap!

Too many people overlook the importance of travel insurance until it’s too late. I know from personal experience – I didn’t start getting insurance until after I was involved in a car accident in the United States. Staring down that bill and realizing it could have been so much worse was a BIG eye opener.

Great tips! I partifularly like number 3 and 5. I have done much of my travels during shoulder seasons also love booking apartments to have access to the kitchen. I love the feeling of being at home even when I travel. I can get up and make a cup of tea in the evening without having to order room service or head out late in the night. Also perfect for those traveling with children so you can have access to make milk or warm food at ‘unGodly’ hours.
