Rent a hotel too far from the city center

Not being honest about your feelings

Too attached to the tour schedule

If you book a tour, chances are you’ll just stick to that itinerary. However, remember, the places where the tour takes you are the places most people go, and those places are already “connected” with the travel company you choose. So it is most likely a “tourist trap”. Therefore, you do not necessarily have to follow any instructions from the tour. Before going, you can find out where you are going and negotiate with the travel company about the places you want to visit.

In addition, in any travel schedule there are “free hours”. Use this time to discover new things in a strange land you have never been to.

Book the hotel only through advertising photos

Remember that without advertising, you will lack a huge source of information, but advertising is something you should not trust too much. The same goes for hotel reservations. The hotel owner can give you very sparkling, fanciful images of his hotel, however, in reality it is not like that at all.

Please research carefully about the hotel where you will stay

Therefore, if you want to book a hotel yourself, please email or call directly to learn more about that hotel. You should not be shy because hotel services are part of the service industry, and the service industry is the industry that serves your needs!

Don’t read the entire terms when you rent a motel room instead of a hotel

If you have enough money to rent a hotel, you just need to check the hotel information, but if you want to rent a room and stay there for 2 weeks or 4 weeks, you need to be a little more meticulous. It can be said that motel rooms abroad are not necessarily more beautiful and cleaner than those in Vietnam. Therefore, please read the landlord’s rental terms carefully. Make sure the room you rent is clean and safe, so your trip is not ruined.

Choose the destination as an airport far from the center

Maybe you fly to an airport far from the center, the airfare will be cheaper. You think that perhaps you are very “flexible” in finding ways to save costs for yourself. However, similar to renting a hotel far from the center, flying to a remote city instead of flying directly to the central city will increase your travel costs. Not to mention it is very inconvenient when you have to carry a lot of luggage, so your time must also be cut down.

Therefore, it is not necessary for you to “cut short” the flight distance, then have to “extend” the road distance. Please arrange a schedule that best suits you. If you really want to save money, you can buy airline tickets 3-4 months in advance instead of booking airline tickets close to the departure date.
