i'm planning a road trip for my senior trip. it will be with 4 -6 total in the group. i want to last about 2-3 weeks. not sure how to pull it off for cheap. i live in Louisiana and am planning on driving through Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Florida, and Mississippi then returning home. not sure exactly what to see and do and we're planning on staying in tent at national camp sites if possible. any suggestions and help would be much appreciated

Planning on a 2-3 week road trip and covering 11 states seems to be a bit overwhelming. I'd try to narrow the trip down and either head toward Texas, New Mexico and Colorado or head east toward Mississippi, Alabama and Florida. For me, I'd even narrow it down and just make the trip to Colorado. There is a lot to see in that state. Even with living in campgrounds, you'll be too tired driving or even see the sites and you gas bill would be out of sight, Pick just a few states and relax. Narrow down the list of states, check with your friends and find out what they would like to see. Look on he Internet and also in state guides for information of historic sites, parks, etc. Your trip will probably be in Summer, so traveling in the Texas area might be pretty hot.

To save money on your trip, a camp site is a good idea. Also, so not forget to carry perishable foods in an ice chest and cook most of your own meals. Eating out can obviously be expensive. Some national park camp sites might be crowded especially during the summer months. When you decide what states you will visit, make reservations or bring a campsite directory for the state you will be visiting. You can often fine books like this in any large bookstore. It goes without saying that give your car a good checkup-maintenance, carry spare water and oil and check the inflation on your tires. Also bring a camera or two. Have fun.

Family Vacation: what's the cheapest accomodations during travel?

We haven't been on a family vacation in a long time. We will be "on the road" probably a good 10-12 days with our 21 year old son and teen daughters this July and we need ideas for affordable accomodation. We have friends scattered about but my husband wants this to be a vacation, with a capital V.

We cannot use our current vehicles because they are older and not reliable so we will be spending a little on a rental. We will be travelling down the East Coast (from Canada) to Florida across to Mississippi for a family reunion and then back up north through Tennessee and Ohio.

Does anybody have any creative ideas? I've checked the prices of motorhomes for rent (that's out of the question!). We can't really afford a camper rental either PLUS a van rental. Any suggestions would be appreciated!



Answer
Check the rout your taking then look into campgrounds that are more or less on the way. Just take a tent and some sleeping bags and you can overnight at a campground with facilities for just dollars a night. Take a camp stove and some basic groceries to make dinner there and you'll save further. It's not luxurious but it's definitely economical.
