How to Travel the World on a Budget: 10 Tips for International Festivals

Introduction

Travelling the world is a dream for many, but it can also be an expensive one. If you want to travel on a budget, there are lots of ways that you can save money while still having an amazing experience in other countries. Here are some tips for planning your trip and saving money along the way:

How to Travel the World on a Budget: 10 Tips for International Festivals

Plan in advance.

If you’ve ever tried to get a hotel room in Paris or Rome on the same day as your arrival, then you know how much of a headache it can be. By planning in advance, you can secure not only the best price but also ensure that your accommodations are located near all of the major attractions and public transportation. This will allow for an easy commute into town each morning and give more time for sightseeing during daylight hours–and save money on cab fare at night!

Planning ahead also helps when booking tickets for events like festivals or concerts: those who wait until last minute often end up paying twice as much because demand is high and supply is low (or even sold out). Instead of wasting money on overpriced tickets with no guarantee that they’ll even get one, book early so that all bases are covered before traveling abroad.

Go with a group.

The best way to travel the world on a budget is with a group. That’s because you can split costs and activities, which means more fun for less money! You’ll also have someone to share experiences and stories with.

Consider staying in hostels or camping on the beach.

  • Hostels are a great option for younger travelers, but they can be noisy.
  • Camping on the beach is ideal for families, as it’s more rustic and quiet than staying in hostels.
  • If you’re traveling with kids, consider renting an RV or camper van instead of booking hotel rooms every night–you’ll save money on accommodation and have more space to store all your stuff!

Eat local dishes and save money.

When you’re traveling, it can be tempting to go out and eat at the most expensive restaurants. But this will cost you a lot of money! Instead, try eating local dishes and saving some cash.

  • Try new foods. Eating what’s familiar might be comfortable, but it can also get boring quickly–and cost you more than necessary in the long run. If your destination has an international food festival or market where vendors sell local cuisine for cheap prices (or even free!), check them out! You’ll get a taste of what life is like in that place without breaking the bank or filling up on bland American fast food again… which would have been really lame anyway.*

Buy a rail pass and travel as much as possible.

If you’re traveling long distances and have the time, consider buying a rail pass. A rail pass lets you ride any train or bus in a country for a set amount of time. You can buy one for yourself or share with friends and family members who are also using their passes.

The cost varies depending on where you want to go and how many days are included in your pass, but it’s often cheaper than purchasing individual tickets as needed–especially when considering all of those airport taxes!

Book tickets online to save time and money.

Booking tickets online to save time and money.

Online ticketing services like Fandango or Ticketmaster may offer discounts for booking in advance, so it’s worth checking out if you’re not sure of your plans. You can also cancel your tickets online if something comes up at the last minute, which is always a good thing! Finally, avoid booking last minute, as prices tend to go up during peak season–especially around major holidays like Thanksgiving or Christmas Eve/Day when everyone wants to get away from home for some reason…

Travel during low season, if possible.

If you’re traveling to a popular tourist destination, you may have to pay more for transportation and accommodation. However, if you choose to go off-season (or even during low season), this can save you money on lodging, transportation and food costs.

Look for free activities such as walking tours or lectures at museums.

  • Look for free activities such as walking tours or lectures at museums.
  • Seek out local festivals in the town you’re visiting, even if they’re not related to your favorite genre of music.
  • Consider going on an organized tour with a group of other travelers (usually young people) who share similar interests and the same budget constraints as yourself.

Get creative with activities that are both cheap and fulfilling to your interests or hobbies, such as photography walks or cooking classes in order to save money on food costs but still get a true taste of what the town has to offer you culturally, historically or recreationally!

For those who love to travel, there are many ways to do so on a budget. If you’re looking for an immersive cultural experience where you can learn about new aspects of life in other countries, festivals are a great way to go about it. Festivals often offer activities that aren’t too expensive or require tickets–such as photography walks and cooking classes–so you can get creative with your activities and save money on food costs while still getting a true taste of what the town has to offer you culturally, historically or recreationally!

Conclusion

We hope this list has helped you plan your own budget-friendly trip around the world. If there is one thing we know for sure about traveling, it’s that there is no right or wrong way to do it. Just remember to keep an open mind and have fun!
