Road trips can be super fun when you’re traveling with your friends or family, but what if you’re struggling to make plans with other people? Solo road trips are always an option if your schedules don’t align, and here’s how you can make them more affordable.

Shorter Distance

Solo road trips can be pretty expensive because you’ll be paying for everything on your own, starting with gas. That’s why you should opt for nearby destinations when hitting the road on your own. In addition to spending less gas, you won’t get too tired during your ride, as road trips can be pretty exhausting if you’re not sharing driving duties with anyone.

Ride Sharing Apps

Are there any ride-sharing apps in your country where you can advertise your ride, such as BlaBla Car? If they’re available, consider giving them a shot because you can significantly lower your expenses by having other people join you and pay for their ride.

Camping Adventure

If you’re planning an overnight trip, how about turning your road trip into a camping adventure. Your gas expenses will still be the same, but you’ll save a lot of money on accommodation if you’re camping instead of renting a room.

Are you ready to take your first solo road trip? How exciting! Solo road trips are really fun because you can have your own adventure without having to rely on others. But before heading out on one, it’s important to do some planning and take extra steps to prepare. These five tips will keep you safe during your road trip so you can enjoy all the views.

Let People Know Your Plans

No matter what, tell someone where you’re going and check in with them when you reach your destination so they know you’ve arrived safely.

Bring Backup Resources

Dead cell phones are the worst, especially on road trips. To prevent this from happening, pack batteries and chargers for your electronics. Also carry backup resources on your devices for important documents like your credit card information, driver’s license, and passport.

Prepare Your Ride

Before heading out on your trip, get your vehicle checked by a mechanic. Make sure the tires are good, the oil is changed, the brakes are checked, the fluids are topped off, and the air conditioning is working.

Pack an Emergency Kit

Pack an emergency kit with first-aid essentials, roadside hazard items, and blankets. Be sure to bring basic tools like a flashlight and jumper cables if your car breaks down.

Bring Food and Water

Make sure you have plenty of non-perishable food and water, in case you go miles without a stop. Be mindful of how much salt you’re eating as it can leave you thirsty and make sure you drink tons of water to stay hydrated.
