How to travel solo cheaply?

Choosing the right agency for your solo trip

Travel agencies have finally understood that some of us want to go alone, by choice or by obligation. It was time ! To avoid paying the famous supplement for single room, be sure to choose a travel agency that offers offers for solo trips. To do this, nothing could be simpler:just do a search on the internet. In a few clicks, you can have really nice stays at a very affordable price, even in a single room!

Go alone, but accompanied

No, that's not a misinterpretation! To enjoy a cheap vacation by going alone, consider grouping travelers. The principle is the same as that of group purchases:find people interested in the same objective as you (for example, going to tan in the Balearic Islands) to access lower rates on hotels or transport. Some sites specialize in connecting travelers:all you have to do is describe your project in an ad or respond to ads already online. Thanks to this trick, you pay less for your solo trip and you give yourself the opportunity to meet rewarding people!

Try the adventure for a cheap vacation

If you want to meet new people while drastically reducing your vacation budget, give it a go! Far from the world of hotels and holiday clubs, woofing, for example, consists of carrying out simple work a few hours a day for a local structure (farm, school, restaurant, etc.) in exchange for lodging and food. And, if you don't feel like getting your hands dirty, consider couchsurfing. Register on a specialized site to sleep on someone's sofa for a few days, in the city of your choice:it's very user-friendly and completely free!
