As travellers cut costs for their next vacation, one company has shared the best destinations that offer good prices without sacrificing beauty and interesting places.
Bounce, a travel luggage storage company, has shared the most affordable destinations for an enjoyable vacation abroad that won't break the bank. The company noted that a vacation in a somewhat unusual place can make a vacation more affordable and enjoyable, with fewer tourists and many new things to discover. This was reported by express.co.
After analyzing the typical costs of hotels, restaurants, transportation, and drinks, Bounce found that the cheapest place to stay in the city is Timisoara, Romania.
Located on the Bega River in the west of the country, the typical cost of a hotel room in Timisoara is £82 per night, and the average cost of a dinner in a restaurant is only £5.
The Romanian city also has many beautiful parks and incredible architecture. It is known as one of the most walkable cities in Europe.
Another city recommended by Bounce because of its accessibility is Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, home to over 16 million people. The city, known as the birthplace of tango, has a lot of nightlife as well as very affordable ways to enjoy the sights.
Additionally, the company recommends that visitors try the incredibly affordable wine in the area: a bottle typically costs £2.63 and a taxi ride to the hotel costs an average of only £0.31 per kilometre.
Although the location on the Caspian Sea sometimes leads to bad weather, Bounce found that public transportation is particularly cheap, with travellers paying an average of £0.19 per trip. There are also many interesting places to see.
