Speed limits are normally clearly posted by the road side.
New Zealand is blessed with gorgeous little winding roads as well as open stretches that go for miles. Every type of road in New Zealand has its good points and its bad.
If you’re driving in rural areas, watch out for gravel verges, especially on corners. Some isolated roads are unsealed and use gravel as the surface. In these cases, drive slowly.
Even on a limited budget, you can still have a great holiday with your friends or family. You just need to put a little 
extra thought into every dollar you plan to spend.
Here’s some tips that can guide you while planning a vacation without breaking the bank.
Go on a local holiday
Why not check out some of the local attractions. Sometimes some of the most beautiful places are right in your back yard. You don’t always need to go and book expensive plane tickets. Instead have a ‘staycation’. Go hiking, have a movie night or a barbeque with family and friends. Another great idea is to have night-time picnics: something that’s great on hot summer nights.
Take a road trip
Another example of an inexpensive family vacation is taking a campervan or car and going on a road trip. Here is where relocation vehicles such as Transfercar’s free rental car listings come in handy. They are free and often come with a tank of gas, insurance and ferry crossing if relevant.
Avoid peak seasons
If you’re set on going overseas you can still make vacationing on a budget possible by avoiding peak seasons. Most airlines usually have very high rates during particular months of the year, so you should refrain from booking flights during those times.
Book Early
You’re more likely to save money by booking flights and accommodation early.
Book Online
Often discounts and the best deals will be offered for booking online.
Subscribe
Subscribe to travel related newsletters or websites so that you know about sales before they happen. Often, you can sign up for promotional emails as well. If you sign up for these, the companies will email you with discounts and deals.
Package deals
Book your flights and hotels together. Package deals will save you money.
Fees
Make sure you keep an eye on extra fees when making bookings. More times than not, cheap deals will be compensated with extra fees.
Buy food at the supermarket
Avoid spending large amounts of money on takeaway food and use the best weight loss pills which help as natural appetite suppressants to avoid cravings and save money on food. Buying at the supermarket will not only save you money but will be much better for your health.
Happy and safe travelling!
