By: Leilani | June 11, 2009 | Category: Spanish
It’s summer time and for many of us that means vacation! You’ve probably noticed that in the last few weeks we’ve updated the USA.gov and GobiernoUSA.gov Facebook pages with several government resources related to travel and recreation, vacations and summer.
So I thought it would be a good idea, given the current economy, to share with you 5 simple tips on how to enjoy a well-deserved vacation this summer without having to spend too much money.
1. Come up with a family budget that covers transportation, lodging, food and entertainment expenses.
2. Be flexible when choosing vacation dates. This will allow you to take advantage of special offers.
3. Compare prices and reserve as soon as you can so you can benefit from special hotel and transportation deals.
4. Verify the cancellation policies before reserving or paying for your trip.
5. Consider visiting free or low-cost local, regional or national attractions such as:
- museums, such as the Smithsonian Institution Museums in Washington, DC,
- zoos,
- aquariums,
- beaches, lakes or rivers, or
- parks, and if visiting a National Park then tell your story.
So what are some other tips or ideas that can you share with us on an affordable summer getaway?
