---

We are back with the Save More series! Today, we will discuss on how to reduce expenses on vacations, and how to make it more magical with less.

While saving FOR vacation was a common topic of discussion, saving ON vacation is also important. And no, vacations don't always have to be expensive to be memorable.

Before we begin, we would like to remind you to commit to your saving goals. Remember, budgeting and tracking your spending are the essential steps to be a better saver. The same rule also applies to your vacation; set a clear budget of how much you are willing to spend during the vacation, and list out each of the items.

Without further ado, here are some tips on how to make your vacation more efficient:

1. Smart Accommodations

Accommodation, along with your travel fare will be the most significant expense you will make for the vacation. Nowadays, there are many sites offering cheap hotel fares, as well as sites and apps offering easier ways to get alternative accommodations for a cheaper rate, such as AirBnB.

Here are some other tips you might consider:

- Instead of staying in the big city, consider smaller towns close to your destination as your options. It might be only an extra 15-minute ride for half the accommodation expense.

- Consider vacation home or guest house as an option, they are often more comfortable than they sound.

- Instead of having two rooms, consider two-bedroom suites, it might be a cheaper alternative while you'll still have your privacy.

2. Travel Fare

If you are traveling with an airline, visit some of the discount websites available today for better deals. Plan your baggage so that you won't be charged for exceeding the weight limit.

Connecting flights might be a hassle, but will be a lot cheaper. If you don't mind spending extra time and energy, consider it as an option.

If your destination is reachable by car, consider driving yourself. Not only it might be a fun experience, it will also eliminate the transportation expense in your destination.

3. Eating

Meal expenses during vacation can take a huge chunk of your budget, here are some strategies you might consider to reduce your meal expenses:

- With today's access to digital information, you can easily plan where you'll be eating and what you'll order before you start the vacation. Planning your meals beforehand can help reduce a significant amount of money.

- Quite often dinners are more expensive than lunches, so instead of going to fancy dinners, try to eat more at lunch. Besides, the lunch queues tend to be shorter, and eating less on dinner is healthier.

4. Transportation

Car rental can be expensive, so unless it's an absolute necessity, consider traveling with public transportation, especially if your destination has good public transportation options.

However, taxis can be quite expensive, so look for cheaper public transportation alternatives.
