Gap year insurance customers need not spend an arm and a leg during their backpacking break.
A list of measures which could save travellers a few quid have been posted by journeyetc.com.
The website suggests that flying into small airports could be one way for backpackers to cut the cost of their trip.
Not only can savings be made by flying to less busy hubs, but it is likely that travellers will spend less waiting around and queuing after they got off their plane.
The news provider also states that carrying snacks and drinks is a good way to cut costs, as is staying in two or three-star hotels, rather than more lavish four and five-star options.
By opting for cheaper accommodation many travellers will not be missing out, as the hotel is merely a place to sleep and recharge the batteries for many people, the website explains.
