Tips for Making Caravanning & Touring Cheaper

1. Tips for Making Caravanning & Touring Cheaper The moment your caravan leaves the car park and hits the road, the expenses start mounting. And before you realise, financial worries begin to creep in. A few practical tips can, however, keep your expenses under control and make your caravan tour both enjoyable and economical. Plan your Groceries Food takes up a huge chunk of your travelling expenses. Cooking your own meals instead of dining out is one of the biggest ways of cutting on expenses. Make a list of all things you would need to make quick yet delicious and nutritious meals inside the caravan. Carry food items with long shelf life such as frozen or canned food and dry fruits. You can always shop for fresh produce at the local markets as you travel down the country. Brew Your Own Tea or Coffee It is so tempting and relaxing to stop at a coffee shop for a cuppa at regular intervals. However, all those small cups do add up to substantial expense over days. Brewing your own tea/coffee is a small but effective step towards cutting costs. Make a Budget

2. Before you begin your trip, make a budget for expenditures under different heads such as food, gas, souvenirs, activities or any emergency expenses. Also, carry some cash with you for small expenses or in case some places do not accept credit cards. Having a budget gives you a better idea of how much you can spend and what your total expenses are adding up to. You can always re-plan your budget and cut down on certain areas to keep your expenses manageable. Drive Prudently Consult an actual map instead of relying on GPS. In most cases, GPS directs you to faster, heavy traffic zones where driving guzzles a lot of fuel. Instead, opt for smaller country roads where you can drive at your own pace and also enjoy the country scenery. Try to avoid hilly areas as hauling your caravan up a slope will burn more fuel. Also, stop and take a rest instead of driving on in inclement weather. Going against a high wind or stormy weather is a sure way of wasting fuel. Visit Peninsula RV Centre to make it happen!
