budget travel guides
Cheap trip planners
Budget travel guides are resources—books, websites, or apps—offering advice for traveling cheaply.
They typically cover affordable accommodations, inexpensive restaurants, free attractions, and money-saving transportation options: I backpacked through Europe with nothing but a budget travel guide and a rail pass.
The genre was popularized by series like Lonely Planet and Let's Go.
