What I love about traveling in Texas is that you can really set your own budget. There are luxurious resorts and experiences, but just the same, if you’re looking to travel around Texas on a budget, there are so many great options. There are so under $50 Texas Trips, and with the abundant nature, Texas State Parks, art galleries, and culture that can be found around, there are limitless possibilities if you want to getaway while staying frugal!

Over the past few months, I’ve worked on this digital magazine of 50 Texas Trips Under $50 to provide Texans and those visiting Texas with an abundant list of affordable activities. In this magazine, you’ll find how to travel for cheap (and even free). Best of all, it covers all the major cities like San Antonio, Houston, Austin, and Dallas. You’ll also learn about the smaller towns that pack in just as much excitement! I’m confident you’ll discover places you’ve never heard of before and be inspired to find beauty in your own backyard!

If you don’t know about me, I started my journey of blogging a few years ago while working a 9-5. While I wanted to travel the world, with limited PTO, I realized that wasn’t really an option. So I looked around me to the garden town of Weatherford, our own Texas Wine Country, and sand surfing. I would take weekend itineraries around Texas for 2-3 months a month with my husband and come back to work exhilarated and ready to take on the week.

Soon, people started asking us about all our trips, and I saw a need to highlight all of the beauty we had. I created this blog to help share the itineraries we created and the incredible memories we made. Since then, I’ve been on a mission to share the gems of Texas and show that you don’t have to travel far to live the travel lifestyle.

$50 Texas Trips: FAQs

Is Texas cheap for tourists?

Overall, Texas can be pretty affordable for tourists compared to many other U.S. states. Major cities like Austin, Dallas, and Houston have a range of accommodations, dining options, and affordable destinations to fit different budgets. Smaller towns and natural attractions, like Texas state parks and beaches, often offer the best rates on various accommodations.

What is the best road trip from Texas?

There are so many amazing road trips you can take from Texas, but one of the best is to drive to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Starting from cities like Dallas, Austin, or San Antonio, this journey takes you through Fredericksburg’s wineries, the art town of Marfa, and the stunning landscapes of Big Bend. You can even detour to the white sands of New Mexico before reaching the artsy, adobe-filled streets of Santa Fe.

What month is best for Texas?

The best months to visit Texas are March, April, October, and November. During these times, the weather is usually mild and comfortable. Not too hot like the peak summer months, and not too cold either. Spring is wonderful with wildflowers like bluebonnets blooming across the state. Fall offers pleasant temperatures perfect for outdoor activities, festivals, and exploring cities without the intense Texas heat.
