Produktbeschreibung
Not another collection of checklists or tips on coupons or promotions, this practical guide teaches travelers -- novice or seasoned -- how to take advantage of travel opportunities by avoiding the typical tourist mentality. Author Tim Leffel shows readers how to bypass the traps that drive up expenses and find the best value, whether as a young backpacker or a wealthy retiree. Drawing on his own extensive experience (including three yearlong trips around the globe as well as his experience as an industry insider), the author also covers what steps to take and what resources to use to save money on travel and how to travel better -- or more often -- on a smaller budget. A dozen other notable travel writers and subject matter experts contribute sidebars on specific ways to save.
