How to travel around the world at low cost

Become a world traveler at a budget cost

The people of our country, especially the younger generation, have become extremely thirsty for travel lately. To the younger generation, travel has become a part of not only knowledge but also life. Whenever they get a chance, they go out in different directions for the purpose of travel. But it costs a lot of money to visit tourist centers. There are thousands of places of interest in the country, all of which are quite expensive to visit! But tourists are always thirsty for travel. Today's article is to quench the thirst of these travelers. In today's article, we will discuss some strategies that will reduce the cost of each of your tours by 30-60% if followed!

Plan a traveling in off-season tours

In our country, during the busy season (usually November-March), people flock to the places of interest. At this time the hotel rent, food, and products are all at high prices. So plan to go on tour in the off-season without going into the full season. In hotels, you will get a seat for 1000 rupees off-season for only 500 rupees! Food or other products will be available fairly cheaply. Transportation costs at tourist destinations (boats or other vehicles) also go up and down according to the season.

Travel by train and avoid the plane as much as possible

Wherever you want to go, try to get on the train. This will reduce your transportation costs by more than half. For example, bus fare from Dhaka to Cox's Bazar is 800-900 rupees. But on the train (local train) the fare from Dhaka-Chittagong is 90 rupees and the bus fare from Chittagong-Cox's Bazar is about 200 rupees. Therefore, if you go by train, you can understand how much the fare goes down.

Must have a bargaining spirit almost everywhere in travel

Most of the traders in the tourist areas of our country are trying to deceive new tourists. Most of the tourists are fooled by the hotel rent of the places of interest, they have no idea about the price of different products and easily charge extra money. Therefore, bargaining has to be done with a good idea about the bargain of everything. Local buses or CNGs usually charge more than double the fare, so be sure to calculate the fare correctly. Don't be shy about renting or bargaining, or your money will be empty.

Whether the necessary products are in places of interest

Try your best not to buy food or other products from places of interest, parks, resorts, etc., because everything is sold at a high price in these places. You can buy the same product at less than half the price outside. For example, if you go to Cox's Bazar to buy bangles, oysters, and garlands, if you need 100 rupees, you will get it in the market at 20-30 rupees.

Take the help of community tourism to reduce travel cost

You can take the help of community tourism in remote places. Community tourism means tourism services to the locals. Although it is not available in all parts of the country, this service is available in Rangamati, Bandarban, and other areas. Hotel service in all these places where 3000-4000 rupees, if you take the help of community tourism, the cost will be only 400 or 500 rupees. If you contact the indigenous people there, they will arrange for you to stay.

Travel in groups and share the cost

The cost of living and eating per person is greatly reduced when traveling in groups. For example, if the room rent for 2 people in a hotel is 1000 rupees, then the room rent for 8 people is 2000-2500 rupees. The more people you can go with, the more you can afford. If you have very few travel companions, contact your local tourist committee. Nowadays, there are tourist committees in almost all areas, which organize tours to different parts of the country every year. They offer to travel to distant places at a very low cost. In this case, you don't have to worry about your hotel booking, food and drink arrangements, they will make all the arrangements.

Stay tuned for offers

At different times of the year, hotels offer discounts of up to 10-50% on seat bookings. There are many discounts on transportation, hotel services, etc. when traveling abroad. For this, you need to have a tourist card. Besides, nowadays tourist clubs are organizing many cheap budget tours, and you can join them.

Make your journey easier with the use of technology as your travel guide

Most of us don't know the exact location of the places of interest, the roads and ghats are not so familiar, so we have to suffer in various ways! Many times due to not knowing the roads and ghats, we have to calculate the extra fare for the vehicles for a short distance. In this case, using Google Maps is very helpful for us. Roads and ghats like hotels, parks, resorts, etc. are clearly given on Google Maps, so there is no reason to worry even if you don't know the roads and ghats. Google Maps will take you to your destination. In addition, with the help of apps like Google Trips, Trip Advisor, etc., you will be able to know the details about the places of interest, hotels, and other facilities. Proper use of technology will make your trip much more comfortable and also reduce the cost a lot.
