14 Countries Where Tourists Can Easily Double Their Savings

Ever dream about traveling without breaking the bank? Visiting new destinations doesn’t have to be solely to learn a new culture or see a new scenic view. It’s also about getting the most value for your money. If you want your money to stretch twice as far, some countries offer the best experience.

These 14 destinations offer the best travel experiences at a lower cost allowing you to save up for another fun getaway.

Poland

Poland allows you to get an affordable European getaway with some historical sites, cultural travel experiences, and modern attractions. Visiting the old town of Krakow, the capital of Warsaw, or wandering off into the picturesque Tatra Mountains, Poland is surprisingly easy on the wallet. It’s a great destination for cost-conscious tourists.

Thailand

Budget travelers love Thailand and rightly so. Thailand offers great value whether you’re soaking up the sun on the beaches of Phuket or visiting the temples of Chiang Mai. There’s delicious and ridiculously cheap street food. Due to the unbelievably cheap mid-range hotels, Thailand is the perfect place for those who want to save and enjoy paradise.

Ukraine

Ukraine is a budget-friendly place for adventurous travelers. There’s lots to see and do in beautiful cities like Kyiv and Lviv and the stunning Carpathian Mountains. Living is cheap, tourists can dine in style and stay at fancy hotels for a fraction of the price they would in Western Europe. Ukraine is definitely worth considering for travelers who want to stretch their dollar.

Argentina

In addition to wine, tango, and stunning landscapes, Argentina is a great budget travel destination as well. In recent years, the peso has experienced significant inflation, but that’s a welcome development for tourists as the cost of dining, lodging and even transportation can seem shockingly low. You can have some delicious Malbec and not feel guilty at all, and a meal at a high end restaurant for a fair price.

Vietnam

For budget travelers who want to see rich cultural experiences while traveling on a budget, Vietnam is a dream. This country provides incredible value for money from the hustle and bustle of Hanoi to the peaceful rice terraces of Sapa. There is tasty street food and affordable hotels to spend the night.

Indonesia

Bali in Indonesia is a haven for travelers who love luxury on a shoestring budget. Private villas with pools are available for a fair price. There is cheap and delicious local food, stunning beaches, and a variety of activities that allow you to live lavishly on a little. Indonesia offers great value whether you’re surfing in Kuta or relaxing in Ubud.

Mexico

Mexico has been (and still is) a favorite destination for budget travelers who can find little treasures for just pennies. There’s something for everyone in Mexico City and the cost of living is so affordable that it allows travelers to do more with their money or save up for the next trip.

South Africa

With its favorable exchange rate, South Africa is a great place for international visitors. From the wild beauty of Kruger National Park to the high-end cosmopolitanism of Cape Town, there are affordable sites that many would consider fancy, yet cost much less than visiting similar locations in other countries. Transportation and accommodation are reasonably priced which can help you stretch your savings while still living the adventure of a lifetime.

India

According to The Economic Times, India is known as one of the cheapest countries in the world. If you’re strolling down the colorful streets of Delhi, sitting on the beaches of Goa, or admiring the beauty of the Taj Mahal, your money will take you a long way. India is a must-visit for budget globetrotters as street food costs next to nothing and budget accommodation is easy to find.

Philippines

Travelers seeking to save can find an exotic getaway on the Philippines’ islands. Food, accommodation, and transportation are all cheap so you can visit the country’s pristine beaches, lively cities, and natural wonders without worrying about your budget.

Egypt

Some of the world’s most iconic landmarks – the Pyramids of Giza, the temples of Luxor – are all in Egypt, and yet it’s affordable which makes it one of the best countries for travelers. Everything from guided tours to accommodation is a steal in the Egyptian pound’s value. There’s delicious local food to eat for a few dollars, and even five star hotels are quite budget friendly.

Portugal

Although this is a European country, Portugal is far cheaper than many other Western European countries, and it possesses European charm. The sunny beaches of the Algarve to the historical streets of Lisbon are all part of Portugal, a destination that’s great for those looking to stretch their travel budget. Dining out is cheap, public transport is cheap, and even in tourist hotspots you can find cheap accommodation.

Colombia

Colombia’s affordability has become a point of attention as it has become a popular tourist destination. From its varied landscapes to its rich culture and lively cities, Colombia has a lot to offer travelers for a relatively small amount of money. Everything is budget-friendly from food to lodging whether you’re sipping coffee in the mountains of Salento or exploring the streets of Cartagena.

Turkey

Turkey is a place that is rich in history and culture, and it’s also a pretty cheap country for tourists. In recent years, the Turkish lira’s depreciation has made it one of the most cost-effective destinations for travelers. You’ll be able to explore the wonders of Istanbul and soak in the Mediterranean vibes of Antalya, and the food as well as lodging will be all budget-friendly.
