Stretch Your Honeymoon Budget

Just like the wedding, your honeymoon budget can stretch beyond your means pretty fast once you factor in all the things you may want to see and do. Here are some tips to help you some cut some of the expenses typically found when travelling.

Honeymoon Travel Books For All Sorts of Destinations

a) Check out online web sites for tourists.

Visit tourist sites online and send for their free information packages. Sometimes you'll even get a video included as well. Browse through the sites to see what accommodations, activities, and restaurants are available in your chosen honeymoon destination.

b) Start planning your honeymoon early.

This gives you the time to research your destination - or maybe even come across a destination that you hadn't even thought of. By planning early, you can find out the costs of hotels, rental car rates, cost of activities, etc. and set money aside accordingly. It helps to know what you may have to exclude or add to or from your honeymoon budget.

c) If possible, travel off-season.

The hotel and airfare rates are always cheaper, and it won't be so crowded with other tourists.

d) Consider and compare honeymoon packages.

You can often find great deals that are cheaper in a package, than if you book each item separately (such as hotel, airfare, car rental and meals in one package).

e) Use a travel agent or shop online for the best airfares.

And be sure to compare prices with various agents/web sites to find the best deal.

f) Arrange your car rental in advance.

Also, consider booking the cheapest car (unless you insist on a luxury car). Often times, when you arrive at your destination, the car rental agency won't have any of the smaller/cheaper cars available (even though you've reserved one) and will upgrade you to a more luxurious car at the same rate as the cheap one.
