Save money on your vacation

When you are putting money aside for your vacation, do not forget that there can be a lots of additional travel expenses beside the usual costs for accommodation, flights, food and drink. This can mean that when you return home you may have spent more that you originally have planed. We have a quick overview for you of some typical, additional travel expenses and also some tips how to save money on them:
By the way, if you are looking for unforgettable and amazing place to spend your vacation at, we recommend Dubrovnik in Croatia.

* Budget flights - there are numerous of low budget flights available online, and if you can book your flights separately from accommodation you can save a lot of money sometimes. This is especially true if you can start to organize your vacation on time so you can book a few months in advance. Companies like the famous low budget airline Ryanair will only charge you the tax on the flight. Or one more possibility to save money is to be flexible enough to take advantage of last minute offers.
* Insurance - most agencies include travel and medical insurance as part of the total costs, but you can get that much cheaper if you organise your insurance separately. Numerous building societies offer travel insurance which are cheaper as part of their current account benefits. A lot of people already have private medical insurance plans that cover travelling abroad. So take a few minutes, check all of your existing policies and see what they cover. If travelling abroad is not a part of your insurance see what deals are available for topping up your insurance before you go somewhere else where it might be more expensive. Research these insurances carefully to be sure that good deals give you all the cover you may need.
* Ren-a-car - many rental companies only accept credit card payments, so maybe it will be a good idea to book and pay for your rental in advance. Then pay the balance off your credit card bill as soon as possible so you can avoid extra payings. If you book in advance you will also get the type of car you want. This is better than getting something larger/smaller than you need because it was the only thing left.
Renting a car is a very good idea if you decide to visit beautiful places like Dubrovnik because its surroundings are also worthy to be visited.
* Exchanging Money - you are right when you think that traveller's cheques are one of the safest ways of carrying money around on holiday, but they are not the cheapest. If you want to exchange money locally look around before you get all your money changed ready for your holiday at one place, maybe there are some competitive deals bat different banks and travel agencies. So you can save money by looking around for good deals..
* Leaving the airport - taking a taxi from the airport to your hotel can be very expensive, and to get one can also take a long time in busy cities. It is definitly a better idea to book and pay for all the transport you need to and from the airport or ferry port or train station.

That"s it...we hope this will help you to save some money. Have a good time and enjoy your vacation in Dubrovnik at its great Dubrovnik hotels .
