Travel Europe on a
budget
Traveling to Europe can be expensive and many Asian countries can be
overcrowded and expensive. Fortunately there are other great and
cheap European vacations out there, so you can travel to
Europe on a budget and enjoy everything Asia has to offer.
Malaysia
Compared to the overwhelming nature of many other Asian countries,
Malaysia is laidback, relaxing and cheaper. Gorgeous beaches, exotic
jungles, colorful temples, delicious cuisine and snorkeling can be
yours for as little as $15 to $30 per person per day. Malaysia is
also more westernized than other countries and many people speak
English, making communication easier. Plus there are tons of
attractions in a small area. From the bustling city of Kuala Lumpur
to the calming and beautiful Cameron Highlands Hill Station, there
is everything from big city attractions to wild jungle adventures.
Morocco
Morocco is located in northern Africa in close proximity to Europe -
but couldn't be more different. Tangier, Casablanca and Marrakesh
offer exotic marketplaces and bazaars, ancient and medieval
buildings, delicious Moroccan food, camel rides and tons of
excitement. Once you've had enough of the bustling cities, head for
the uncrowded beaches, amazing mountains, cedar forests and old
Saharan towns. There are plenty of outdoor activities like trekking,
skiing, windsurfing and hiking to do on this cheap exotic
vacation. Depending on how many creature comforts you seek, you
can get by on anywhere from $30-$80 a day.
Turkey
Turkey is a great vacation in itself, but also a great way to
travel Europe on a budget. This nation is located between
Europe and Asia and is known world-wide for its amazing sightseeing
opportunities and great values. Even though the prices have crept up
over the years as tourism has expanded, the country still is a great
deal. Turkey has a historic past, with amazing and ancient cities to
visit, Roman ruins to explore, mosques and ancient churches to
visit, Byzantine art to admire and more. Turkey is also surrounded
by four seas, making it a beach paradise with plenty of outdoor
activities to keep you busy and resorts for comfort. Although a bit
more expensive than the other counties, travelers can get by on
about $50 to $100 a day. Hostels start at around $25 a night and
hotels a little bit more at about $45.
Prague, Czech Republic
Once the capital of the Holy Roman Empire, Prague offers amazing
Roman architecture and all night partying - at budget prices.
During the day, visit the city's beautiful buildings, many of which
were build more than a millennium ago. For an ancient feel visit
Prague Old Town or Prague Lesser Town, two older areas of the city
that are less modernized. In the evening, pub hopping and beer
drinking seems to be the choice of most. In fact, a half-liter mug
of world-famous Czech beer starts at round $0.30, which is often
cheaper than a cup of coffee or soda. For food, there is everything
from local dishes like dumplings and goulash, to Thai and Russian
food and at reasonable prices too. For evening accommodations,
hostels will start around $23 a night and a nice hotel room will
cost around $50 a night. Prague is a cheap European vacation
and a great way to travel Europe on a budget.
Thailand
Thailand is an attractive budget vacation for everyone from
families to honeymooners to retirees. With stunning beaches,
snorkeling, diving, sailing, hiking, elephant rides, floating fruit
markets, inspiring temples, delicious cuisine, ancient kingdoms and
historic sites - you'll have plenty to keep yourself entertained
with. Don't forget about the famous shopping as well - custom
tailored handmade suits cost only around $100-$150. Thailand is a
country where you can visit on a low budget, spending $20 on a
beachfront bungalow or you can splurge on amazing luxury five-star
hotels like the Oriental for $200, a budget price in comparison to
other countries. Thailand is renowned for its hospitality - so why
not splurge?
