Europe Budget Tips
Budget travel Europe and save big $$$.Europe is one of the most fascinating place's in the world. A lot of the culture's and lifestyle's are completely different from what you will experience anywhere. Below is a complied list of countries’ that a have detailed reviews of each. Tips are given that will save you money and ensure you have a great vacation. Below the list, you will find a list of countries’ I will be visiting shortly.
It is important to know that when you are traveling to Europe that the cost's of travel would be more expensive than most places in the world today.
Why is this??? Many factors contribute to this such as the economy. As you travel, I recommend that you take a good look at the exchange rate each time that you pull out your money. All institutions in Europe go off the exchange rate and signs will be posted in order to show you just how much you will be paying for the country’s currency in which you are traveling. Over the years, I have noticed that the dollar is only stronger in eastern European countries such as Bulgaria. The best way for you to get an excellent value is order your money ahead of schedule and minimize the time's you use local ATM's. This little bit of information will save you a lot in your travels as it has me for years.
Discount Deals
Traveling to Europe and saving money is on the minds of everyone who decides to travel to Europe. For your viewing pleasures, I have come up with some money saving discounts for your budget travel Europe needs that will save you a lot of money while you’re traveling.
Student Cards
While I have lived in Europe I have learned of discount cards known here as the International Student Travel confederation. From what I know the card offers teachers, students and people under 26 a card that gives them large discounted on museums, youth hostels, transportation and restaurants. The website to check for these cards and the discount offered is istc.org.
Camp Cards
There is a camp card available for those of you travelers who plan to camp where you plan to stay called a Camp Card International. The cards often earn you discounts at camp sites and also come with insurance. You can find these cards being issued at campgrounds throughout Europe.
Trains
Normally while traveling through Europe via train, you can find travel deals all throughout the year. Most of the train discount deals are offered for limited time’s and often are made available throughout the year especially during the summer season. Be sure to check websites such as rail Europe to find out what discounts are offered.
Tours
Believe it or not you could get lucky sometimes and get a great deal on last miunte travels. Sites such as lastminute.com will often post great deals for the last minute traveler.
Party Buses
There are some great party buses throughout Europe but some of the best are located in the United Kingdom. These buses offer hotel and camping tours which can range anywhere from 5-48 days depending on the partygoer.
Budget Airfare Europe
Over the past years, I have seen a huge boost of buget travel Europe discount airline’s springing up. Many of which offer prices that are almost too good to be true. The trick to get the cheapest rate when booking on discount airlines is to book as early as possible as the more people book tickets, the more a ticket will cost.
You can find a lot of discount airlines throughout Europe and some of their websites can be switched to English so it makes it easy to book a flight. The best thing about these discount airlines are the prices. Flying from London to Ireland for literally .01 euro cent. That’s right you can fly somewhere for .01 euro cent. The only thing that gets you is the taxes which could add up to 30-40 Euro’s depending on where you are going. The only downside is you are limited on the amount of luggage you can bring and you are charged heavily if bring extra. There are no reserved seats on these aircraft so make sure you get in line early to get better seating. Here are just a few airlines for your budget travel europe to take a look at for your budget planning needs.Ryan Air Ryan air is one of the top airline companies that provide budget travel Europe discount airfare to some of Europe's most sought after destinations. Many are unaware of this golden airline due in part to they have never heard of it. Ryan Air is a rather large low operating company that provides you with the basics of airline travel. Traveling on Ryan Air is quick and easy. Food and drinks are served on the aircraft but a high cost. It's a good idea to pack food and bring it with you on the aircraft before you plan to depart. Also, prepare yourself to walk. Ryan Air works to save money as much as possible so they park the aircraft farther away from the terminal. Normally, this walk is not too long. And for the price, who could beat it. For example, you could fly from Germany to Ireland for .05 euro cents. That’s right it’s not a typo, .05 euro cents. But taxes’ will kick in so the total price would be 30 euro. Which is not bad. When traveling to Europe I recommend taking a look at this awesome airline. Website:Ryanair.de German Wings German Wings is another low cost operating airline company that provides cheap airfare to the most sought after destinations in Europe and will fullfill your budget travel Europe needs. Operating on the same principles of Ryan Air, German wings offer the same amount of destinations with low airfare rates. It is key to note that German Wings travels to some different destinations as well. You could fly to Africa on German Wings and as well as the Czech Republic. Flying on German Wings is identical like flying on Ryan Air. Website:Germanwings.com
Accommodations
There are a alot of accomodations to choose from when you are trying to budget travel Europe but, many are not the most cost effective. Below, I have listed some accommodation idea's that you may want to consider.
Hostels: If you want the most for your money, then you should definetly look into staying at a hostel. Hostels can be compared to hotels in many ways but also differ in most. For one, normally when staying at a hostel, you have to share a bathroom with almost everyone on the same floor. The rooms are also shared depending on how many beds it may have. But where hostels make up for the sharing of rooms in the cost. Hostels can cost almost 80% less than hotels in the same area. They also have tourist information desks and sometimes free wifi for internet. The best part of all about hostels is you get to meet others who are traveling and get great information from them.
Free Accommodations What most do not know is there is a new trend going on for travelers coming to Europe. You could stay in Europe for FREE. Thats right, FREE.This is by far the best budget travel europe savings deal. It's called couch surfing. What it is is a network of Europeans that offer there couches, beds, or yards for free for travelers coming to Europe. Although I have not tried this, I have heard that it is actually relatively safe. This option would be great if you are traveling with a friend. There are a couple of websites that I have listed below if you interest in such accommodations.
