This is one of the most common questions I get about my travels. How much does it cost? It’s such a broad question that depends on so many factors: Where are you going, how do you want to travel, are you staying in 5 star hotels or budget backpackers, how long do you plan to go for, do you want to do any specific activities? And the list goes on and on.
I can’t give you an estimation for how much your trip will cost and I think most people feel a little lost and intimidated when they’re planning their trip and the budget for it. I think the best piece of advice I can give you is to compare costs of the countries you’re visiting with that of your home country to get an idea of how much more – or less – things may cost. Also booking things in advance, especially if you’re traveling for a short period of time is a great way to get an accurate idea of what the trip is going to cost.
If you want to get an idea of how much other places around the world cost for things that you might be able to find in your own country, check out the following infographic. It is designed for a South African audience (so hello especially to any South Africans reading this) but it is still useful for anyone from any country. Just pop the amount into a currency convertor and change it to your home currency.
This infographic will help ensure you are more prepared financially for your next trip. What’s not to love about that?
