There are many wonderful ways to experience Europe in the most cost-effective way. There are a number of cruises, which allows tourists to visit the coastal cities of the Mediterranean and the Baltic Sea. River Cruises using wine as a main theme are becoming increasingly popular. But if you want to experience the flexibility of the European land-based vacation that you will not find elsewhere in the typical group tour of Europe, Busabout Europe should be in your plans. So what is a Busabout trip, and how can it be used to experience Europe in the most cost-effective way? First, the tours run from May to October and consist of several major bus routes running clockwise around most of Europe. This is "hop-on hop-off", and the format offers an inexpensive option for travel in Europe, specially designed for backpackers and independent travelers, usually of college age. The only age requirement is 18 years old, and those who book this vacation should have no hesitation about traveling independently. Busabout Europe allows passengers to travel around Europe at your own pace. Just simply buy a travel pass that allows you to travel different parts of the network - the shortest duration ticket is of 6-Stop Flexitrip Pass, valid for 6 trips anywhere in the Busabout bus network. Accommodation. To experience Europe the most cost-efficiently, Busabout helps arrange accommodations for travelers in the cities stopped at along the way, making it an easy and convenient way to see Europe. Most lodgings used by Busabout are hotels and hostels in the center of the city, and normally costs 15 € 25 € per person per night. Services vary, but do not expect a bathroom in each room. Most places offer a safe in each room, so that your property is will be secure. Busabout Europe is always looking for what they believe are safer, cleaner and better quality rooms in each city. Cost savings. Busabout offers a means of transport which is much cheaper than if you were to buy train tickets between cities point to point. You can get great savings if you have an ISIC, ITIC or ISE card or can book your travel early to save more, provided your plans are known in advance. The rooms are clean and safe, but the intention is to save money for time in Europe. Finally. This excursion of Europe is not for the person on a strict timetable or does not want to stay in a place that is rated less than four stars. But for someone with a sense of adventure who wants to explore Europe on a strict budget, this is an excellent choice. Each bus has a travel guide that offers a wealth of useful information on the city to visit and help you with travel and hotel reservations. The bus leaves the hotel in the morning to start the day, and arrives later that day in the next town in the location where you will be staying, which makes things easy. Finally, you will be able to mingle with other passengers, or having a quiet time to read if you like. So if you want to plan your trip to get the most out of Europe without spending much money, Busabout is certainly a good option to consider.
