to Getting More for Less
"This practical guide teaches travelers how
to take the best 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, 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."
