My Top Budget Travel Tips

  • Tip #1: Plan ahead: you can get the best flight deals if you plan about 6-12 months ahead of time.
  • Tip #2: Travel in shoulder seasons: if you can, travel just before or after peak seasons. You can get tickets for a fraction of the price, and enjoy smaller crowds.
  • Tip #3: Compare pricing of accommodations to get the best prices: use a site like booking.com to find great places to stay within your budget.

Our Experience with Budget Travel


Traveling with a family of four can get really expensive really quickly if you don’t know the right tricks. Over the years, we have learned a few ways to keep costs down and still enjoy bucket list destinations. From finding the best airfare deals to making the most of credit card rewards, we’ve figured out ways to stretch our travel budget without sacrificing memorable experiences.

One of the biggest ways we save is by using travel rewards programs strategically. Credit card points, airline miles, and hotel loyalty programs have allowed us to book flights and accommodations for a fraction of the cost—or even for free! Learning how to maximize these perks has been a game-changer in making family travel more affordable.

We also focus on budget-friendly destinations and off-season travel. By being flexible with our plans and doing a little extra research, we’ve been able to make our travel dreams a reality without overspending.

Check back for more posts about how we travel domestically and internationally on a budget! We’ll be sharing detailed guides, money-saving tips, and real-world examples of how we make affordable family travel possible.
