Our idea of the Best Asia Travel on a Budget is getting the most for
your money and finding those little hidden gems in Vietnam, Cambodia
and Hong Kong that few people know about.

We include photographs as well as a Video Tour of your destination city on each page.

This allows you a "See and Feel" experience of your destination city as well as all the information you'll need to find your way to the best attractions, hotels, restaurants and 'watering holes'.

This information will give you the freedom to make your own choices instead of being sold to by other websites that do nothing more than ask for your credit card details.

At Travel-Budget-Asia.com you'll find...

• Detailed Articles on Most Major Asian Cities

• Videos and Photographs on Every Page

• Links to Any Other Website with "Informational Value" to You

You might have already bought one of those high priced travel Asia guidebooks. I did as well.

Those books ARE informative but they're like a nosy neighbor who keeps peering through the drapes and telling the neighbors all your secrets.

As soon as any Hotel, Restaurant or Tour Operator makes it into the vaulted pages of this Asia Travel Guidebook, or that Budget Asia Travel Guidebook, they quickly raise their prices to meet the stampede of tourists that soon follow.

It's big money for the Asia travel guidebooks and their clientele. The goal isn't to find the best places for you but the ones that pay the most towards their advertising revenues.

Meanwhile you're stuck in long line-ups, paying premium costs and being herded to 'Recommended Attractions' and staying in 'Recommended Hotels'.

That's how I traveled Asia for years. Then I found myself in Shanghai, China at 1AM in the morning begging for a discount on a $50 / night room.

It was a youth hostel (The Captain Hostel) that I had selected from the 'Budget Section' of my guidebook.

$50USD a night for a 'budget hotel'?

"No Discount!" Fired the receptionist. "We now famous place!"

"Yes", I see. Page 138."

I walked out of there in a huff but the adrenaline helped me lug my huge backpack through the dark, cold streets.

I walked from from one Hostel to the next with that heavy bag strapped to my sore back.

It was a hard lesson but I found some of the most amazing, out of the way places on the streets of Shanghai during that early morning trek.

It wasn't until I took a wrong turn and got lost that I finally found a decent hotel. It had a clean bed, a toilet, heat and hot water.

It was a really nice little room and it was $12USD / night.

Of course, it was not listed in my Asia Travel Guidebook.

"Share and You'll Prosper"

It seemed there was need for a Budget Asia Travel website where people could gather useful information and hear advice from fellow adventurers who are not trying to sell you something.

We'll share everything we've learned during the past 7 years and numerous 11 block walks we've taken in cities throughout Asia.

You can also use this website to write about your own Asia travel experiences.

If you've traveled though Asia before, then you've surely uncovered at least one nugget of knowledge. Let others have a chance to learn from your travel Asia adventures.

Write about your favorite hotel in Saigon or just rant on about whatever Asia travel experiences you've had.

Have a look at the invitations to share at the bottom of most pages on this site.

You'll automatically build a professional web page that anyone can access from anywhere in the world. It takes less than 15 minutes and will cost you nothing.

You don't need to register or even tell us your real name. We want people to feel free to also ask any question they like or tell any story they want on the Your Asia Travel Stories page.

Have a look at this Vietnam Travel Web Page. It was built by a 14 year old girl!

Write a great article about Vietnam travel, Cambodia travel or any other Asia travel destination. If it includes useful information then we'll include a link to your Website Or Blog.

It's all free. All we ask is that you write an article that offers good information for people who may be planning a trip somewhere in Asia.

See an example on the Vietnam Travel Page.

Here is the New Year's celebration of January 1, 2007 in the city of Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), Vietnam. I would Update it, but we haven't had a better one once (2011 is coming!)

And the next day I took this video of a traditional Vietnamese Lion Dance on one of our Vietnam travel excursions.
