What is Mid Range Travel? Mid range travel means that you are right in the middle between backpackers and luxury travelers. It means that there are times we splurge and other times we find the cheapest accommodations. It means we take advantage of a free hotel breakfast and eating street food while at the same time eating out at amazing restaurants. It’s about avoiding baggage fees at all costs to put that money towards activities. It means flying economy to make your money extend farther.
