Money-Saving Tips
Eat at Volo Volo market instead of hotel restaurants - typically 60-70% cheaper for authentic Comorian dishes
Use shared taxis rather than private taxis for inter-city travel - usually 50-75% savings on transport
Stay in Moroni center rather than beachfront properties - accommodation costs drop 30-50% just a few blocks inland
Book domestic flights between islands locally rather than online - often 20-40% cheaper through travel agents
Buy drinking water in large containers from supermarkets instead of small bottles - generally 80% cheaper per liter
Negotiate taxi prices before getting in - drivers typically quote 2-3x the local rate to tourists initially
Common Budget Mistakes to Avoid
Taking taxis everywhere instead of shared transport - typically costs 3-5x more for the same routes
Eating only at hotel restaurants or tourist-oriented restaurants - usually 100-200% markup over local eateries
Not negotiating prices at markets and with taxi drivers - initial quoted prices often include 40-60% tourist markup
Booking all activities through hotels - tends to add 30-50% commission compared to local operators
