Traveling is one of the most rewarding things you can spend your money on, but it can be especially pricey if you want a fun and comfortable\u00a0experience. \u00a0But honestly,\u00a0if you’re going to see the world, you might as well indulge and treat yourself. After all, you only live once! While luxury can cost a lot of money, there are some tricks to getting luxury travel on a budget.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Using technology to make travel more affordable<\/strong><\/p>\n

Skyscanner
\n<\/strong>To give you an idea of relatively cheap flight destinations, plug in your home airport and \u201ceverywhere\u201d as your destination into\u00a0Skyscanner\u2019s search engine. You\u2019ll get all sorts of destinations presented to you on your laptop<\/a> from Buydig.com in order of least to most expensive.<\/p>\n

Going solo
\n<\/strong>Check out the Solo Traveler Deals Page, the source for those who travel alone, \u00a0to find a list of companies that offer\u00a0tours and cruises with no or very low single supplements for solo travelers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Groupon
\n<\/strong>You can choose your destination and search for deals on discount sites like Groupon.com on your tablet<\/a> or computer<\/a> from Buydig.com right from the comfort of your own home.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Sweet deal
\n<\/strong>Honey is a free browser feature that auto-applies promo codes at checkout. It even works on discount sites like Groupon allowing you to stack your savings! Once you go to checkout use Honey to automatically find and apply any hidden promo codes you didn’t even know about.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Hotel Tonight app
\n<\/strong>Hotels put extra inventory on this service for day-of sales.<\/p>\n

Glamping options
\n<\/strong>Luxurious camping is not an oxymoron. Go to Glamping.com to find glamorous\u00a0camping opportunities around the world.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\n<\/a><\/strong>Location, location, location and timing are everything<\/p>\n

Travel in the off season
\n<\/strong>Not only will you avoid the crowds, but the locals are also more relaxed and friendly. Just watch out for catches like rainy season at the beach.<\/p>\n

Go less touristy
\n<\/strong>Get more for less by staying off the beaten track, away from the center of the city. Staying within 1 mile of the center could cost you $100\/night more than outside that 1-mile circumference. Plus, staying outside the city center can get you into interesting neighborhoods so that you get a real feel for the city.<\/p>\n

A night in the museum
\n<\/strong>Visit places like museums and galleries late in the day because they often sell discounted tickets near closing.<\/p>\n

Book\u00a0last-minute deals
\n<\/strong>Book early or at the last minute. At the last minute you\u00a0can find empty spaces on tours so discounts are often found there.<\/p>\n

Experience that exclusive restaurant after hours
\n<\/strong>High end restaurants that are hard to get into, let alone afford, will be happy to serve you dessert and a cappuccino after regular dinner hours. You\u2019ll get the table, the luxury experience, the cuisine and the budget prices by skipping the meal. Pair that up with a night at the theater and you have a true luxury experience.<\/p>\n

Step up to the bar
\n<\/strong>You don\u2019t have to stay at a 5-star luxury hotel to enjoy some of the benefits. You can go to the bar for a drink, enjoy afternoon tea, or book yourself into their spa.<\/p>\n

With the help of these tips, some creative planning and organization, you can enjoy a luxurious trip without putting yourself in debt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
