Poverty travel is a very popular way of travel now. It is not to be poor for the sake of poverty, but to enjoy the greatest happiness in the most economical way! Below, 号 will share how to achieve quality travel from : food, accommodation, transportation, and entertainment. . Some travel skills that people think of saving money may often be a pit~
1. Food
1. Food
Compared to spending in large restaurants, many people may think that consumption in night markets, food streets and other places will be relatively cheap, but in fact it is not necessarily true! There are many tourists in night markets and food streets, which are usually the hardest hit areas for slaughtering customers! So if you want to travel in , Tiaotiao recommends that you should choose the old residential area , especially those shops with many local customers. Blindly choosing one is basically cheap and delicious!
For example, when you go to Hong Kong, don’t go to Temple Street in Yau Ma Tei for dinner! is basically foreign tourists who are fooled by Hong Kong dramas or guides, and are often easily raised or cheated. It is also spicy crab, and the price of Temple Street is more expensive than other places. Tiaotiao has also encountered the fact that "seafood is suspected to be transferred". He chose super-fresh seafood, but it tastes not fresh after being served~
So, if you want to eat well with a small amount of money, go to the place where locals live! is like going to Hong Kong, so I recommend North Point if you want to jump to the north corner. This is an old residential area on Hong Kong Island, with a lot of small restaurants and a very "Hong Kong flavor"! 30+HKD can have an extremely rich breakfast - 1 cup of authentic Hong Kong milk tea + 1 large bowl of beef for the first diced one + 1 large piece of ham egg toast, you really don’t have to have lunch after eating!
2. Stay in
Compared with hotels and homestay , youth hostels can be said to be the cheapest choice, the cheapest one can buy a bed for a few dozen yuan a day. The decoration and environment of many youth hostels are very good, and there are large public areas, as well as public computers, fitness equipment, chess and cards, etc., allowing everyone to make travel friends from all over the world, which is a very worth a try experience! But the disadvantage may be that there is less private space~
Like before Tiaotiao, I went to Taipei, and I stayed at the Orange House Youth Hostel in Ximending . I can stay in 4 people for just over 100 yuan a day. However, the Hotel B6 hotel less than 200 meters away on the same street costs more than 600 yuan a night, which can really save a lot!
Of course, if you have enough time, you can also choose volunteer travel . For example, many youth hostels and homestays in Yunnan will post volunteer recruitment on Weibo, and there are also many recruitment activities for official accounts such as Xingying Travel. Generally, volunteer time is required to start from one month. This not only can exchange accommodation through its own labor and truly integrate into local life , but also may meet many interesting people working in youth hostels, increasing their knowledge and experience, etc., and the journey will become more fulfilling and meaningful~
3, Xing
1. Choose transportation to the destination
At present, the main means of travel transportation include self-driving cars, buses, trains, high-speed rail and airplanes. Generally speaking, ordinary trains starting with buses and Z/T/K are basically the lowest and the most cost-effective! But it should be noted that the cost-effectiveness of these two modes of transportation may not be high, because it takes longer than other modes. Below, Tiaotiao lists the advantages and disadvantages of the above transportation methods~
From the above picture, the fares for buses, trains and high-speed rails fluctuate slightly, but the air ticket prices vary greatly during different periods! Therefore, if you choose the right time to buy air tickets and grab special tickets from airlines, it is cheaper in minutes than other modes of transportation, and the travel experience is better~
Use the experience of jumping to compete with major travel websites, air tickets need to be purchased during promotional activities, such as 618 and Double 11 every year. Moreover, these package activities basically include the travel dates in the next six months, which is equivalent to purchasing tickets in advance from 3 to 8 months. China Southern Airlines, which is more common in taking Tiaotiao, has launched the June ticket enjoyment season activity. The round-trip air tickets start at 90 yuan, and the aircraft + wine products start at 399 yuan, which is much cheaper than usual.In addition, you need to pay attention to the following airlines’ monthly membership day , which will be cheaper!
Fat friends who are not in a hurry can also try choosing transfer flights or gap flight tickets. In many cases, it can be 50% cheaper than direct flights ~
2. Transportation during travel
. Of course, first choose public transportation such as buses and subways . In addition, cycling is also a good choice, low-carbon and affordable~ In addition, Tiaotiao reminds everyone to be careful to buy in some places. Before purchasing, you should see clearly which transportation means and which attractions can be used. Don’t find that the scope of use is too narrow and it is wasted a lot of money.
4. Play
1. Bring these documents with you to get discounts on tickets
Now many scenic spots have different degrees of discounts, which can reduce some of the burden on your poor trip!
(1) Student ID. Full-time students can enjoy discounts with their student IDs. Basically, many scenic spots have discounted prices. For example, local students in Guilin are exempt from tickets for student IDs, while students from other places will receive 50% off.
(2) Elderly certificate. Some scenic spots are free, while some are just discounted. It is free for those over 70 to visit any scenic spot.
(3) Soldier certificate and officer certificate. Some scenic spots are cheaper, while others are free of charge. Generally speaking, military personnel can hold certificates for free in some large state-owned scenic spots, but some private scenic spots are not.
(4) Police officer certificate. Some scenic spots are free, while others are half price. The armed police and soldiers treat each other equally, while other police officers depend on the specific situation.
(5) Teacher Certificate. It is free on Teacher's Day, and the regulations of each scenic spot are usually followed.
(6) reporter certificate. You can also enjoy discounts if you hold the " News Reporter Certificate " issued by the General Administration of Press and Publication.
(7) Disability Certificate. Some scenic spots are free, while others are half price.
(8) Tour guide certificate. It is free to take tourists when taking them, and it depends on the situation in normal times.
(9) ID card. Some scenic spots can get a very discounted ticket price with their local resident ID cards. Discounted documents must be used in conjunction with ID cards, because some preferential treatment can only be enjoyed by the city or even by the county or district.
2. Some places will have youth discounts
For students and young people who have just worked for a few years, the travel budget is generally not large, so many places have introduced special preferential policies to make everyone travel better! For example, Taiwan Youth Travel Card . This is to encourage young people to travel to Taiwan. The is specially issued by travel card for young people aged 15 to 30 at home and abroad. You can enjoy a variety of discounts such as attractions tickets, transportation, accommodation, food and shopping with a travel card. Show valid identity documents, fill out the youth tourism card application form at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport , Tourism Bureau Tourism Service Center, etc., and apply for free. Tiaotiao thinks that if you travel in Taiwan for a long time, this travel card is quite affordable~
