Bundle together, save together: While getting on a plane can be quite the adventure for the kids, it may take a sizable chunk out of the travel budget. The best way to save on airfares is by bundling the flight with the accommodation. This often results in additional discounts, leaving more for fun activities at the destination. (Unsplash)

Booking accommodation with breakfast included not only can save lots of money, but it also provides some peace of mind – the coffee is already brewing, the bread ready to toast.

To book refundable or not to book refundable: If like most families you have fixed travel dates due to school term breaks, great savings can still be made if you opt for the non-refundable lower price deals. If you need some flexibility with the dates of travel you can compare room rates and conditions for the deals that suit you.(Unsplash)

Feels like home: The more the merrier, sure, but sometimes it’s better to go with ‘one size fits all’. Booking a holiday home instead of several hotel rooms is often the more budget-friendly option. Stack up the fridge, light up the BBQ, and use the space in the living room to play some board games or charades with the whole gang.(Unsplash)

Go Local: Domestic travel is a win-win: It allows the family to skip costs for overseas flights and visa expenses while renewing a sense of national pride as travelers get to learn about their own culture. When choosing a local destination, consider hidden-gem destinations that give the family a completely different experience from locations frequented by others. Or opt for nature-filled destinations! It offers an immersive experience within nature that lets the family save up on expenditure compared to being in the urban jungle.(Unsplash)
