Saving extra money when we travel...


Now that the US economy is still recovering, what can we do to fight the rising prices in the other countries?

The fluctuations in the economy may change a lot of things, but one thing that remains the same is the desire to explore new places and experience new cultures. It’s just that now, when travelers set off on anything from an African safari to a weekend getaway, they’re a bit more conscious about their spending.

Of course, we at travelandleisure.com encourage everyone to keep traveling. So we’ve come up with a can’t-miss list of tips to save money — both while planning and taking your trip.

One way to do it? Go all-inclusive! All-inclusive resorts have made huge strides in the past few years, and some great new spots that have been popping up, like the Paradisus Palma Real Resort in the Dominican Republic, and the Secrets Maroma Beach on Mexico’s Riviera Maya.
