]]>Know Your Route
A pretty good tip for any road trip, but the Australian outback makes this particularly important. Nobody wants to make an impromptu trip to Alice Springs, only to get lost en route. Have a clear sense of the cities, national parks, and monuments you want to see, and make sure you know how to get to where you’re going. Pack the car with provisions, including plenty of water.
Check Out The National Parks
People often think of the beach and all the sun, sea and sand that it entails when they think of Australia, but there are some stunning forests, deserts, mountain ranges and lakes scattered across this vast country. Three of the must-see national parks are Kosciuszko in New South Wales (home to Australia’s highest mountain), Flinders Range which is 300 miles north of Adelaide, and Litchfield in the north of Australia, which offers waterfalls amidst rainforest.
Take In The Culture
People have been living in Australia for around 50,000 years. Take in some of the awe-inspiring Aboriginal culture during your road trip, by going on a First Nations walk with an Indigenous guide. The options include exploring an ancient rainforest that is home to the Kuku Yalanji people, admiring rock art in the Flinders Range national park, or foraging for oysters using the same methods as the Bardi and Jawi people.

]]>Close to Home
Transportation costs are the biggest expense of road trips and you won’t be able to share them with others when you’re traveling on your own. The best way to save some money on gas is to visit a destination that’s not too far away from home because you’ll have to cover a shorter distance this way.
Travel + Adventure (@dreamcatcher_mahdi)Ride Sharing
Using ride-sharing apps is also a great way to minimize your transportation costs when you’re road-tripping on your own. If there are any ride-sharing apps such as BlaBla Car available in your country, consider giving them a shot because they can help you cover your gas expenses.
Give Camping a Shot
If you’re not embarking on a road trip and plan to stay overnight, consider going camping instead of renting an Airbnb. Your accommodation costs will be much lower this way, and there’s nothing quite like falling asleep underneath the stars, especially during warmer spring and summer months.

]]>The post The Best Snacks to Bring on a Road Trip appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>Hand Fruit
One great food for driving is fruit like apples, peaches, pears, or plums. These fruits can be held in one hand and eaten while using the other hand to steer (be careful though and keep your eyes on the road!). Just wash them before you leave and have a paper towel handy in case they’re juicy.
Nuts and Nut Butter Snacks
Nuts have lots of protein and healthy fat, which means nuts and nut butter are perfect for staying full and focused on the road. You can grab a bag of mixed nuts or a nutty granola bar at the grocery or if you’re hankering for some junkie gas station food then grab a bag of peanut butter pretzels.
Veggie Chips
If you want to feel that nice crunch and the satisfaction of going through a bag of chips while on the open road, try opting for a healthier version like veggie chips or sticks, kale, or seaweed snacks. These will give you the same satisfying eating experience without weighing you down by overloading carbs.

]]>Take Advantage Of the Kitchen
Traveling in an RV literally lets you bring a kitchen along for the ride. Make sure to stock up on long-lasting groceries such as frozen, canned, and dried food; Cereal, beans, rice, and frozen pizzas; lots of local fruits and veggies form wherever you’re passing through. You can also buy meats like pork and turkey if you have the option of freezing them so they don’t go bad.
Shop Around for Fuel
Besides the vehicle itself, fuel is often the next biggest expense for RV travelers. To save as much as possible on fuel, use an app like GasBuddy to see which station in your area is offering the most affordable fuel. Note that not every gas station is set up for a big RV to get into and out of easily, so you should always have a backup station in mind.
Invest in a National Park Pass
If you’re traveling within the U.S. and plan on exploring some of the county’s national parks, investing in a National Park Pass can save you a lot of money. Priced at $80 a year, this pass grants access to more than 2000 national parks and it covers standard amenities fees for adults (they are free for children under 15).
