@@LaurennRThe best or the cheapest? There are several all inclusive resorts for families in Spain. The Balearic Island may be too expensive in the Summer. Turkey has also very huge seletcion of all inclusive resorts, for more cheaper prices, and so is Bulgaria. Bulgaria might be the cheapest ( Im not sure in it) I would go to Greece, because Greece is the best destionation in the World. You can find all inclusive vaction in Crete ( or other islands ) for quite good prices. Cyprus is also fine, but too hot in the Summer

You are absolutely right when you say that there are no cheap destinations anymore and I also agree with your decision to talk about the destinations that give you the best bang for the buck. People should always remember that "cheap" is a relative thing. If you live in Scandinavia and have a well paying job there, pretty much all of Europe will be "cheap" for you. If you live in an Eastern European country and earn an average Eastern European wage, nowhere in Europe will be "cheap", including your own country. Still, there are better deals and worse deals that you can get when traveling, and you should look for that.

Controversial opinion: but I found Vienna cheap when I was there for a week last August. Maybe because I only went to a few museums, which I bought at a three-for-one price, or even at home, I tend to eat one meal a day. But not including hotel or airfare I only spent about just under $400 that whole week, in terms of food, museums, travel (bus, U-Ban), thrift store, record stores, the Wheel, etc.

@@jimbrennan1181 I even spent a day in Laxenburg, got a tour of the castle. That's a nice area too. I also think it cheap vs expensive is based on your lifestyle, and how much you plan to see and do on vacation. One could be in an expensive city like London and couch surf or stay in hostels and only go to local pubs for entertainment, and spend very little money. One can also stay at the nice hotel in Prague and eat at Michelin star restaurants.

@@Travelbug71 I also think the people who say a city like Amsterdam is expensive is 18, 19, 20 something American kids who go there to party. Or, a family who would need to pay for double the meals, bigger room. and more attractions for the kids. They way I think international travel is the same way I think local travel. See everything you do as a day trip. Don't do something because it is a "must do", do things you would want to do, to enjoy. I was at some events, where I knew I was the only American there, like when I saw a 16:00 showing "A Third Man" at this small off the beaten path local theater, I just happen to walk past. Or, when I spent the afternoon at one of the cities FKK beaches.

Vienna, as long as you stay away from 1st and 7th district, can be very affordable: try to find a hotel or apartment in the 3rd district, e.g. around Landstrasse: from there you have 2 subway stops into city center, you eventually can walk it, and, most important of all: you have everything there you need for your stay: e.g. Croatian bakeries with breakfast at lowest budget and so good, "real" shops, not the international chains you can find everywhere, Rochus market a.m.m. Or take a hotel/apartment in Ottakring, same story there.

For anyone planing a trip there I especially recommend whole day bike trips (you don't have to be scared of hills or weak legs with e-bikes) - ~8h ride around Sintra was one of my fav attractions ever. It was first time i picked a bike tour and now where ever i go i search for that option - you are on the fresh air, with amazing views, get to see more non-touristy places and are not stuck in queues or crowds 10/10.

I'm a Liverpool fan as well. I got to see them play the Queens Park Rangers several years ago. I got to go out on the pitch! I got to sit in the captains seat! It was fantastic, and then they won! Steven Gerrard missed a free kick but then he scored the winning goal. Afterwards he came out for a meet and greet and everyone got a group picture with him - very nice and humble guy. Keep in mind, Anfield is not in the best of neighborhoods BUT compared to most urban cities in the U.S. it's still very safe. They also have great food and incredible cask ale - I was blown away by the quality and variety. It's a fantastic city that more people should visit.

Great advice; I always tell people to visit these less obvious but still fantastic places. However Prague may be affordable and breathtakingly beautiful but it is very crowded with tourists

I’ve never been to that part of Romania that you mentioned. But I did spend a lot of time in Bucharest and I only went there because there was a girl that I was going to “meet up” with. And I loved it. They do have a Hard Rock in Bucharest. I found it really affordable for Europe. I really enjoyed it.

So last year my wife and I went to Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. We spent time time in Tallinn, Riga, and Vilnius and loved all three. But I would like to suggest a day-trip to Tartu, Estonia to have dinner at the Gunpowder Cellar, a day-trip to Jurmala, Latvia to go swimming, and a day in Klaipeda, Lithuania as a base to explore the Curonian Spit.

@@scream4depp We did most of the trip as part of a packaged tour, but at the end we came back to Riga for a couple more days and we used the LuxExpress bus service. The buses were were really nice and comfortable and easy to book and pay for online. We did end up taking a detour because the main highway was closed while they worked on the new high-speed intercity train line between Vilnius-Riga-Tallinn. That will be a nice option soon.

Visited Tallinn, Pärnu, Riga and Jūrmala previous year in June. I had a really nice time there considering that I was lucky with the weather too :-). Regarding the prices though... It's definitely not cheap like it was 10-15 years ago, at least for my Swedish wallet 😅🥲. Considering how weak the Swedish crown is against the € and USD nowadays.... I could also say Gothenburg is worth visiting now 🙂.

2:05 YEAH BABY! And it’s literally right across the river from Vienna! I love Bratislava. I went there on a mission trip in 2003 fell in love and I’ve been back numerous times. Super easy to get there because Vienna has a lot of flights to Vienna and then it’s right across the river. There are so many things in Bratislava that I would recommend eating and seeing and trying. I just love it. I don’t know what the dishes called, but there’s some sort of sheep cheese curd dish sometimes it has potatoes in it whatever it is, it’s amazing. And they have their own root beer Coke type thing called Kofola something like that. I really like it usually it served warm, but you can have it either way. Just remember ice isn’t really a thing in Europe unless you ask for it.

Wonderful list! Brasov..so inexpensive. We had pizza and beer, right outside Dracula's Castle. One of the most touristy places around, yet it was only $12! It is beautiful there. The countryside looks a lot like the Smokey Mountains. Thanks for the reminder about the smoked beer in Bamberg. My husband always says it was like drinking bacon! 😄

My favorite places that I have visited in Europe happen to be “second cities”: Porto and Napoli. Lots to do and good value for money. We also visited the island of Crete (around Heraklion). I also found you got good bang for your buck there. I don’t know if the same is true around Chania.

I think the gist should be there are no cheap or expensive places it's mainly how you approach it. Book super early to get the cheapest accomodation. Book rooms on the local low days. Decide on eating options, buying food and snacks from competitive supermarkets. Cooking yourself is generally far cheaper. Anywhere on Earth you can walk and use your eyes and breathe the same air as a rich man but pay nothing.

For cheap places I would go to Poland or Balkans. For hotels there are so many options and in summer time they open student dorms which are excellent for digital nomads and they often have LAN connections, not just WiFi. Bratislava is a nice place, but it doesn't have that many budget hotel options. East Germany is good too if you can plan to avoid Sundays. In Austria, stay in the villages instead of towns, prices drop like 2x for accommodation.

I second Córdoba wonderful City, small related to Seville and Granada but lots to do. The Grand Mosque was on my bucket list. So glad I got to see it last September, even higher up for me than the Alhambra which was also amazing. The year earlier we were In Ireland and I was hoping to see things related to Enya, but she hasn't released an album in a while and I saw much more on Garth Brooks. Ironically, there's a small museum across the street from the Grand Mosque that was blasting Enya!
