Arabiaweather.com - Ismail Qasimi - We are all looking for an opportunity to travel to the Maldives , but its very expensive prices change our thinking about this dream destination, but you can save a lot if you follow some tips for those with a limited budget.

- Contact a number of travel agencies in the Maldivian capital, Male, and also check prices on booking sites and resort sites directly. Some agencies negotiate with some resorts to obtain deals up to 30 percent less than what is available online.

- See if you can organize your own transport yourself, this works better for the resorts in the atolls north and south of Male', for example you can take the public ferry or shared speed boats to Maafushi Island and then transfer to one of the nearby resorts on the island And that's much cheaper than taking a speedboat straight from the airport.

- Book your stay at the resort or hotel with a special "half board" instead of a room stay with breakfast only, because evening meals can be more expensive and breakfast is often represented in large buffets in a way that reduces your need for lunch, and this means that you dispense with the "all-inclusive" If you are a solo traveler on a budget.

- Make sure that the price includes taxes, service fees, credit card fees, and airport transfers, because there are many prices on the Internet that exclude these costs for you, so you will have to pay them later upon arrival.

- Pay attention to the costs of the activities that you can do in the resort you will choose, as the most expensive resorts often provide the most expensive activities, so if you want nothing more than to relax on the beach, try to stay away from the activities later.
