Tours4fun would like to congratulate Terri Fogarty from Europe Up Close for giving us the top Travel On A Dime tip! She has won a $250 gift certificate, which can be applied to any Tours4fun tour!
Here’s Terri’s budget travel tip:
Act like a local.
•Take public transportation
•Get your lunch from street vendors or grocery stores and enjoy a picnic
•When you do eat out, eat where the locals eat, and that means off the main tourist thoroughfares.
•Be sure to get the Prix fixe menu… this is the restaurant’s bargain meal
•And, take advantage of all the free things in the city: concerts in churches, museum free-days and markets all offer a free and real glimpse into the life of the local community.
•How do you find out about all this? The local tourist office. It should be your first stop when you get to a city or town.
