Travel smart with large groups
When one thinks about the concept of cheap travel it often conjures up nightmares of unreliable tour packages and cowboy hoteliers. For the unwary, nightmares can indeed become reality, but for the smarter traveller this really needn’t be the case.
The truth of the matter is that with a little forward planning, you’ll find that less can indeed be more in the world of cheap travel and an extra few bucks in your pocket can mean an extra week or two on tour.
The no.1 rule for cheap travel is to do your homework and plan ahead. The biggest costs incurred to the traveller will probably be those of transport and accommodation, and here is where the biggest savings can be made. Booking ahead with budget airlines can save you huge amounts, and be sure to check which days around your time of travel are the cheapest – airlines can adjust prices due to demand and those willing to be flexible with their schedule can reap the rewards.
