About Cheap Thrills Travel
Save where it makes sense. Splurge where it’s worth it.
Cheap Thrills Travel is about value-conscious, independent travel and getting more from your travel budget. We bring together affordable finds, smart spending advice, useful travel gear and worthwhile premium experiences, from local food and surf trips to boutique stays, wellness and design-led travel.
Find what earns its place in your bag
Shop by what you need: a bag for the journey, a way to organise the small things or an extra for a day outdoors. Our collections make it easier to compare useful options without digging through unrelated listings.
Check the product description, images and selected option for the item you are buying. If you need a detail that is not listed, ask us before ordering.
Useful advice alongside the shop
Our free guides cover packing lighter, comparing the full cost of flights and spending thoughtfully across the whole trip. They are there to help you make considered choices, including using what you already own.

Independent planning support
For a trip that needs extra research, view our planning services. Cheap Thrills Travel provides independent planning and research; we do not make bookings or hold supplier prices.
Save / Splurge / Worth it?
- Save: affordable finds and practical choices that leave more room for the trip.
- Splurge: experiences worth making room for, whether that is a boutique stay, great meal, surf trip or wellness experience.
- Worth it? consider quality, character, convenience and the full cost against your own priorities.
