Deciding to travel together is one of the best things you and bae can do for your relationship. However, taking a trip to the Caribbean or exploring the wonderful sights of London doesn’t come cheap. When your budget is tight, it doesn’t mean travel is out of the question. There are still ways to plan a black couples’ trip that are sure to satisfy both of your desires for a break and adventure.
Travel Domestically
One of the first tips I want to talk about is to stick to domestic travel while you’re on a budget. The United States has 50 states. That’s a lot to cover, and chances are, you and bae haven’t been to every one of them.
Black couples traveling together in the U.S. generally enjoy locations like New Orleans, Washington, Dallas, Atlanta, and North Carolina. Of course, there is a lot more to explore. Get bae and check out Google – look at photos of the views you can experience at these locations and the affordable activities you can explore.
Traveling domestically will save you a lot on Visa fees, as well as on your travel arrangements.
Contact a Travel Agency
People often thing that travel agencies are more expensive, but if you get the right contacts, you could actually get access to exclusive discounts only available to these agents.
This is why it’s important to get in touch with a couple of local travel agencies. Tell the agent you connect with where you and bae want to go and what you expect from the experience. Since you’re on a budget, mention to them how much you’re looking to spend. You might be surprised at how much you’re able to save by tapping into the discounts these agents can access.
Join a Travel Group
Another option is to join a black couples travel group. There are loads of these groups traveling to all corners of the planet. The idea here is to find a group that fits within the budget you have available to spend.
A travel group gets access to bulk booking discounts, which you and bae can take advantage of to experience different parts of the world without paying the full price.
There are several other benefits that joining a travel group can offer you. For example, you’ll find that it’s an excellent opportunity to get to know other black couples traveling together.
There are both domestic and international black couples travel groups. Once you start to travel with these groups, you’ll also be introduced to networking opportunities where you can meet other travel group leaders. In fact, some black couples get to the point where they even start their own group.
Final Words
If you’re on a budget but still want to treat bae to a nice vacation, there are several options to explore. Consider traveling locally, use a travel agency to get exclusive deals, or join a black couples travel group to take advantage of bulk booking discounts.
