Another stunning budget getaway, albeit this time in Africa, is Morocco. The country has a history, age-old customs, mountains, beaches, and of course the Moroccan desert. Get lost in the endless colorful alleyways of cities like Fez, Chefchaouen, and Marrakech, camp under the stars in the middle of the Sahara desert, walk along the Mediterranean coast and climb the towering Atlas mountains. You can click on your heart’s content as vivid surprises and ancient history awaits you at every corner. There are lots of options for backpackers, but if you can spare some cash, consider staying in the iconic ‘riads’ – traditional hotels with a garden courtyard. Trips and tours can be expensive, but they are worth experiencing. You will be overcharged, so learn the art of haggling. Morocco is relatively stable and definitely a great place to travel on a budget.
Budget:
Backpacker – From $20 pp / per day
Mid-range – From $45 pp / per day.
Luxury – From $100 pp/per day
Best Time to visit: April-May, Sept-Nov
This list of budget destinations is not comprehensive. There are many other counties that could easily fit in. Poland, Indonesia, Laos, Portugal, Bolivia, Bulgaria, Albania, Ecuador, Estonia, and Columbia are a few of the countries which can be explored with a limited budget. In fact, there are many locations that are still a bargain. You should research and plan beforehand, avoid crowded towns, and live like a local. Traveling in a group is also a good way to save money. I hope the above list inspires you to find your own budget destinations.

I honestly thought travel to most of these places was a lot more expensive than what you’re showing it was. I want to travel abroad desperately and can’t wait until I”m in a position to do it. India and Indonesia are on the tops of my travel bucket list so it’s to see that even the luxury visit is really within my budget even now.
Nice!! There is no upper limit to luxury nowadays, but hope you are able to travel soon and in style. And you are most welcome to come to India.
My favourite budget travel location is Poland!! Eastern Europe is fantastic but your list has such a huge variety of places!! I hope to go to many of them soon!
Hope this pandemic ends soon and we are all able to travel again
Many of these are on my travel bucket list and also on my list of places to possibly retire. I really want to go to Asia to see these places.
Great post. Some excellent sounding destinations. Croatia is definitely on our list for the future.
Thanks. Croatia is really worth going. A complete holiday destination.
Wonderfully jotted the places, hope to withstand the present scenarios and come up again with those amazing backpacks.🤓
