Buy bottled water in bulk from local shops rather than hotels (typically 200-300% markup at hotels)
Book accommodation directly with properties rather than through international booking sites to avoid commission fees
Travel during rainy season for significantly lower accommodation rates, typically 40-60% less
Negotiate prices for longer stays at guesthouses and hotels, often 15-25% discounts for week-long bookings

Only eating at hotel restaurants and tourist areas instead of exploring local food options (typically costs 150-300% more)
Taking private taxis for all transportation without trying shared options (usually 3-5x more expensive)
Not carrying small denomination local currency, leading to overpaying and poor exchange rates
