Today, travel no longer has to be as expensive as it was a few years ago. There are various cheap airline tickets, train tickets and accommodations that also suit a lower budget. Curious about how to travel on a budget? Read on to find out.

Cheap tickets. Plane tickets are always a large part of the total cost of a trip, yet they don't have to be expensive. To find cheap tickets, it is useful to use websites such as Cheaptickets or Skyscanner. It is also useful to be flexible with the planning, so you can often score last minute tickets for a few tens.

Cheap overnight stays. If you travel to a destination like Copenhagen or Berlin, the prices of the accommodations in the city can be very high. That is why it is useful to book an overnight stay just outside the city or at a further distance from the sights.

Food and drink. To save on food and drink on your trip, it is useful not to eat out every night. When you stay at a destination for several nights, you can provide your own food in your apartment or house, this saves a lot of money. There is also often the possibility to get food from stalls along the street when you are staying in a city.

Here are a few more little tips for saving money on vacation:

  • Travel to cheaper countries or cities
  • Live like a local, not a tourist
  • Use a Citypass for your city trip
  • Do not book a tour but go on an adventure yourself
  • Go on a working holiday or volunteer
