We all love to travel around the world but seldom do we realize that we are over spending on our travel trips as there are many other budget travel destinations around the world. Here is a compendium of the coolest budget destinations for 2016 from some of the best travel bloggers on the web, according to forbes.com.
Western Australia:
Typically Australia has been a place that for many seemed out of reach, if not for its geographic location than for its high costs due to a strong Australia dollar. But recently, the AUD has taken a dive, especially in comparison to the U.S. dollar, while that means many Australians might be forced to limit their overseas travel plans, it also means that for many North Americans, a trip to Australia is cheaper than it’s ever been.
Costa Rica’s Caribbean coast:
Costa Rica’s Caribbean coast has plenty to offer in comparison to the well known towns of the east but with a much less touristy vibe, which also translates to better deals as well. The town of Tortuguero is famous for nesting sea turtles and the reefs of Manzanillo makes for an excellent dive spot, but one of the biggest draws is the famous Costa Rica Sloth Sanctuary located south of Limon.
Quebec City, Canada:
If a trip to Europe has been on your wish list but you lack the time and funds to make this a reality, Lonely Planet suggests North Americans head to Québec City. No, it’s definitely not Europe but they suggest it has enough of a foreign francophone vibe and old world charm to make you feel like you’re a long way from home.
Galicia, Spain:
Being a well visited country by many tourists, you wouldn’t think Spain would have a lot of deals left to be had, but head to the country’s northwest region of Galicia and you’ll find rocky coastline and villages relatively unexplored by tourists. Lonely Planet says that the value of this region comes not only from being a place relatively unexplored by tourists but also from the quality of meat, cheese and seafood that can be found in the many tapas bars throughout the Galicia region.
Xi’an, China:
If you’re interested in history, culture and hearty but cheap food, Xi’an, China should be on your list. While cities like Beijing andâ?¨Shanghai have become more expensive to match their cosmopolitan status, Xi’an still remains budget-friendly. As a former endpoint of the Silk Road, the city has retained its historic city walls and east-meets-westâ?¨harmony, the influence of which comes out in the street food.
