When you’re traveling to a tropical foreign land, the best way to explore its culture and natural beauty is through excursions. Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie, marine life enthusiast, safari lover, history buff or culture crusader, there’s a fabulous excursion (or six) just for you! We know, sometimes the prices can pile up which means having to pick and choose between one to two excursions. Fret no more–here are 3 insider tips to save money while booking your dream excursions.
1. Choose a multi-activity excursion
While swimming with dolphins and zip lining across the tree tops are among the top excursions to venture on during tropical vacays, avoid excursions that include just a single activity. Instead of feeling overwhelmed by so many options to choose from, why not find the perfect combo that includes two to three activities? Doubling up on activities means getting the best out of your excursions and only having to pay once!

2. Meals and drinks-included are the way to go
The only thing better than embarking on a luxury sail in the Caribbean Sea is knowing that lunch or dinner will be provided. No need to worry about stopping somewhere to eat before the excursion or grabbing something at one of your stops when there’s already authentic cuisine waiting for you at no extra cost–it’s already included in the excursion price! Many excursions feature included meals, so there’s plenty to choose from and opportunities to save.

3. Find excursions with included transportation
Finding budget-friendly, reliable, off-site transportation in a foreign country can often be stressful–and let’s be honest, who wants to feel stressed on vacay? The best budget-friendly option is to book excursions that include transportation in the total price. No having to negotiate prices with local taxis or paying way too much for a private driver. All you’ll have to do is confirm pick-up time and location (usually your hotel lobby) with the transfer company, and you’re all set! Pro tip: Excursions booked with Amstar include air-conditioned, friendly and reliable transportation.
