For Cheapest hotel around shopping area, try Caritas Bianchi Lodge. It's at Yau Ma Tei area and Temple Street, Jade Market and Ladies Market are all within walking distance from the hotel. The rates are from HK$500 for Twin Room / Double Bed Room.
Address: 4 Cliff Rd., Kowloon, Hong Kong. It's also only about 5 min walk to Yau Ma Tei MTR Station.

For Disneyland, from Caritas Bianchi Lodge, take the citybus no. R21 from Public Square Street, Nathan Road directly to Disneyland Public Transport Interchange. HK$32, approx. 40 min. Schedule: Every Monday to Friday: 08:50, 09:10. Every Saturday, Sunday and Public Holidays: 08:50, 09:10, 09:30. For outside this timing, you can take A21 to North Lantau Highway near Lantau Link Toll Gate (towards Airport) & transfer R8 to Disneyland Public Transport Interchange. A21: Hk$33, 40 min. R8: HK$7, 10 min.

From other places in Kowloon, New Territories, Lantau Island, Chek Lap Kok and from Shen Zhen, bus is a better bet as its more direct than taking MTR and the fare is more or less the same. For Shen Zhen, Chek Lap Kok and Lantau Island, this is the only way to access to Disneyland apart from coaches and taxi. From HK Island, however, MTR is cheaper and faster than bus. Take Island line to Central Station and walk to Hong Kong Station and transfer to Tung Chung line. Alight @ Sunny Bay Station and transfer again to Disneyland Resort line directly to Disneyland Station. Use the Octopus card will get you cheaper fare than cash.

Disney's Hollywood Hotel is cheaper with rates from HK$1,210 for Garden View for its value rate, compared to Hong Kong Disneyland's Hotel from HK$1,760 for same type as above.

You should go to travel agencies like Gray line Tours or China Travel Service (CTS) for cheaper tours than the Disneyland itself as its got better value package that may include others place nearby. They both also sell F&E package for Disneyland itself and the ticket itself too.

Hope the above can answer all your doubts on your question.

Your looking at a long drive across NY state… gas prices are high.. have you looked into bus travel? you can get on and off so its not just one long ass ride….the only other option i can think of is to look into teleportation, which may be very expensive and/or not invented yet

Your best bet is probably take a road trip. Hopefully, you have a reliable car. You can drive anywhere! Just make sure you have enough for gas, tolls, food, motel, etc. It might be a good idea to take a credit card that has no or a low balance, in case you run into an emergency- such as an unexpected car repair.

If you really want to keep costs down, just take day trips. Pick a direction and just drive & explore. You can come across things that you never knew even existed practically in your own backyard.

I don't know what kind of money you are looking to spend, but look into some all inclusive trip, such as a cruise (although these are not usually cheap). The good thing is that meals and enetertainment are not an extra expense.

Depends on the country… In Germany you are best off with public transportation, usually the trains go anywhere, the faster you want to get there the more expensive. ICE is the fastes and connects major cities, IC is still OK and goes pretty much to bigger towns too, after that there are regional trains. Pricing is acceptable for Europe. In the cities, you can get a week pass for most public transportation providers, this is the best when you stay a little longer in one place, if you stay only for a day or two get a day pass.

For Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece, etc. good luck and learn to deal with delays and chaos. England, Ireland, Netherland, Belgium, Denmark are a littel similar to Germany. France, Austria, Switzerland are in the middle, their system does not cover all of it but still OK. Do not go to Poland, Hungary, Balkan, Turkey, etc. any unguided tour will end eventually at a police station, reporting something stolen, not working or simply got completely lost…

If you want to stay in the south, and are up for it, rent a motorcycle, scooter (must have for Italy), or Smart car (looks like a motorcycle sidecar, but is actually good for one person)

Have fun
