Someone traveling on a tight budget. Not to be mistaken with the backpackers, who rather represent a subset of the budget traveler category.

Usually young people who are short on money and often try to travel to as many far away destinations as possible, not necessarily with any particular goal.

Other budget travelers might not go to neither distant nor multiple places, rather they will go by last minute or discount trips to regular tourist resorts.
