1> Travel off season–this can cut your expenses in half
2> If possible, concentrate on one or two spots, rent an apartment in each and make side trips. For example, our last trip to Paris we stayed in a centrally located apartment for 750 EU per week. From Paris we took side trips to Normandy, Chartre, Dijon all via train. :. Enjoy the life of the locals, shop for meals in markets and use mass transit.
3> Don’t try to see everything in one trip
