It has long been confirmed the postulate that even a week of a well-spent vacation can charge you with strength and energy for at least six months in advance. However, it often happens that people deny themselves a trip, due to limited budgets. Few people know that having even a rather modest amount at your disposal, you can have a great vacation, and not only in Russia. In this article we will talk about where to go on vacation for 50,000 - 60,000 rubles for two. Where to go, how to choose the right route and how much you have to spend, we will try to tell you about everything below.
Traveling as a couple is often the most budgetary and convenient travel option. Firstly, the rooms are almost universally designed for two people.
If the traveler is alone, then he will be offered to live in a similar room, but it will cost more than someone who is resting with a roommate.
Secondly, if it happens that a lone traveler cannot find company, then often he does not have the opportunity to visit individual attractions that can only be entered as part of a group. Another aspect of an individual excursion is that it is always more expensive than a similar route, but already in a group.
The budget for any trip can be made up of several items:
- Air travel (moving);
- Accommodation;
- Nutrition;
- Spending on excursions, shopping, etc.
As for the last point, it will not be touched upon in this article and calculations, since here, regardless of the chosen direction, there is literally no limit to the amounts that can be “left” while resting from gray everyday life.
Speaking about air travel and accommodation, only those who travel on their own will have to consider and calculate them separately. Package tourists, as a rule, pay for these two items of expenditure in a single amount.
This article will give examples of the price when departing from Moscow. But it is worth considering that if you have to get to the capital from other cities, this will increase the cost.
Tip: you should look for alternative flight options, for example, directly from your city or with a connection in some other Russian settlement. It often happens that a transplant, for example, in Rostov-on-Don, and not in Moscow, will ultimately save several thousand of the budget. You can read about how to search for flights correctly.
So, what directions should a couple of tourists pay attention to, whose budget does not exceed 60,000 rubles.
Southern resorts of Russia
An excellent option is the resorts of the Black Sea coast, such as, and another resort Crimea. If you travel by train from Moscow, then tickets will cost an average of 6-12 thousand rubles for two in both directions.
Sochi By the way, when planning a trip to this region, you should not discount the option of air travel. The stereotype that an airplane is always more expensive than a train is fundamentally wrong today. So tickets for two "round trip" from Moscow to Sochi can be bought for 12,000 rubles.
All tourist areas offer a variety of accommodation options, you can rent a room in a hotel or hostel, or take advantage of the offers of the private sector. It is best to search for housing on online booking services, such as www.booking.com or www.airbnb.ru For example, housing in Sochi starts from 1,800 rubles per day.
Lunch will cost an average of 300-700 rubles for two, although in many guest houses it is possible to cook on your own. With this approach, 50-60 thousand rubles will be enough for an exciting vacation for 7-10 days.
The choice of this direction is also attractive because there is an opportunity to walk through beautiful park areas, view various architectural sights or natural beauties, without spending almost anything.
So, for example, in Sochi you can walk around and see the decoration of existing churches, including the Cathedral of the Archangel Michael, the Holy Trinity Church, the Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord and a number of others.
You can admire the singing fountain or take pictures of spectacular city sculptures - the Horse in the Coat or the Golden Fleece. A walk along Komsomolsky Park or Potseluevsky Square will allow you to breathe in pleasant air and hide from the sun. And of course, this region is worth visiting the Sochi Olympic Park.

Friendly Georgia
For those who have already traveled up and down the expanses of our country and want to get to know new places and a different culture, we can advise you to go to Georgia. In addition, for such a trip in 2019, a visa for Russians is not required. The most budget option to get to the resorts is a train, the travel time will take only one day and the cost will be approximately 12-18 thousand rubles for two in both directions.
As for the cost of food in Georgia, it will not be more expensive here than in Russia. The advantage is that the local dishes are quite hearty, and the portions are large, which means that if there is a man among the travelers, he will not be hungry either.
Unforgettable Baikal
Residents of the Siberian and Ural regions can also find a great option for an affordable and interesting holiday, in which it is easy to meet 50-60 thousand rubles for two. Why not go to Baikal? This is a unique place with picturesque beauties, crystal clear water and a variety of excursions. You can organize the trip yourself or use the services of tour operators.
Of course, the first option is cheaper. Especially if you prepare in advance: “catch” airline shares and book accommodation. Or you can go by train. Tickets from Novosibirsk will cost 8-15 thousand rubles for two in both directions. Housing can be found from 1800 rubles per day. The most economical accommodation options are considered in the area of the Small Sea.
When planning a trip to Lake Baikal, it is worth considering that during the summer season, especially in July and August, the prices for rooms in tourist centers and hotels can be significantly inflated. A trip to the lake a month earlier or later will save on housing.
Baikal is also interesting because there are quite a few different hiking routes. The most touristy and not difficult tourists can go on their own, but for more complex ones you will have to take a guide, and this is an additional budget item.
You can cook on your own or visit local cafes and canteens. In any case, the planned amount will be enough for a comfortable and unforgettable stay.
Do not forget about the burning offers of tour operators. Thus, you can catch a great option, for example, in Bulgaria, Abkhazia or other countries. The main thing is that the ticket includes a flight and, preferably, three meals a day.
Sunny Bulgaria
Although this is just another coast of the sea, which is also available here in Russia, a holiday on the Bulgarian side will undoubtedly give travelers new emotions and pleasant impressions. It has everything you need to have fun and enjoy your vacation. Warm sea waves, pleasant climate, golden sandy beaches, and an extensive program of excursions, not to mention quite reasonable prices.
So for the summer of 2019, individual tour operators offer vouchers to two-star hotels in the Sunny Beach resort from 28,000 rubles per person, the price includes air travel, accommodation and breakfast.
Going to Golden Sands in June will cost a little more - about 30,000 per person.
These examples are popular resorts. If you want to save money, then look for options in Sozop or Nessebar. The quality of rest will not be worse, maybe a slightly smaller selection of cafes and restaurants, but the price will please.
Also, as in the situation with Baikal, you can save a little on accommodation if you plan a tour not at the very height of the season, but at its start or end.
If you have the time and desire to save money, you should organize the trip yourself.
It will be cheaper to book tours and tickets in advance. If you deal with this issue a couple of months before the trip, you can save another third of the cost. By traveling to Bulgaria by land transport, for example, by bus, you can further reduce the cost of air travel. So the cost of a bus ticket will cost about $ 200 for two one way, while air travel on the same conditions is at least $ 300.
The Bulgarian language is in many ways similar to Russian, because it belongs to the Slavic language group. Therefore, most tourists do not experience any language barriers. This means that you will not feel uncomfortable during your holiday. And democratic prices for everything, including food and entertainment, excellent cuisine, a huge selection of interesting excursions will make your Bulgarian vacation unforgettable.
Summer in Abkhazia
Since the days of the Soviet Union, Abkhazia has been among the popular resort towns. And now this country will gladly accept tourists from Russia. In addition, you do not even need to have a passport to visit it. It will even be better if you cross the border on a civil passport. After all, a stamp about crossing the Abkhazian border can then create problems if you decide to visit Georgia.
You can get to Abkhazia by bus or train from Adler. The distance here is quite small - does not exceed ten kilometers. Abkhazian hotels and even ordinary private traders can offer you their services and independently bring you to the country directly from Adler.
Rest in 2019 in this country will please with its availability. For only 1200 rubles per person, you can stay in a comfortable boarding house with comfortable rooms and good meals.
If you have to eat out, the prices will also please the budget tourist. It will turn out to dine already for 400 rubles per person.
As for the cost of the road, the train from Moscow to Sukhum will cost from 6,000 rubles per person. And if you get by plane, then you have to fly through Adler - this is about 12,000 for two.
Speaking of an economical vacation, one should not discount the various "burning" options offered by tour operators. It happens that for 50,000 you can go together for a week in, or to the Chinese island of Hainan. However, before booking such an attractive offer, you should definitely look at the climate of the selected region. Often the best prices are offered in the lowest and not the most pleasant season for recreation.
Knowing the main directions and subtleties when choosing a tour, as well as having a certain amount of free time, will allow you to choose a tour within the planned budget of 50,000-60,000 for two. It is important to consider not only direct costs, but also how much money you will have to take with you on a trip.
I love to share with you all sorts of tricks for travelers that save time and money. Today I’ll tell you how to look for the cheapest flights from several airports to several airports at once, and even with a date interval of at least a whole year in advance!
Lowcost.pro
First, check out offers from your city at lowcost.pro. For example, cheap round trip tickets from Moscow. I made this service for myself. Everything is very simple, but useful. Choose the desired direction and go to the price calendar, there you already adjust the month and find the date with the lowest price. At the top of the page, change the city to your own. Most offers from Moscow.
Other special offers selected by me on the main page of lowcost.pro
In the lines of departure and arrival, we indicate the desired airports or even entire countries. I indicated the departure from Spain. Vienna was written as the arrival airport, then I clicked on the blue icon and I continued to airports nearby.
I'm going to say "on one side". Dates are June 1st to June 30th. If you indicated the option in both directions, then indicate the number of vacation days you need.
The search engine gave me the cheapest option from Madrid to Bratislava. A good offer, because from Bratislava you can get to Vienna in about an hour. It is cheaper to fly from Barcelona to Budapest.
You can use this information to create budget itineraries. For example, it is easy to dock a flight from Moscow to Madrid, and fly back from Bratislava to Moscow with Pobeda.
I warn you that these are low-cost prices, which means you have to pay for luggage, sometimes you also have to pay for check-in at the airport, flights at inconvenient times. If you want cheaper, sacrifice convenience.
From Russia, and especially from the regions, it is advantageous to fly to Germany. Where is it cheaper to fly to Spain in June? It turns out from Cologne to Madrid, and Pobeda flies to Cologne. If you are lucky enough to buy a cheap Victory ticket and you can not take luggage, then you can safely fly to Spain very cheaply.
Did you fly to Spain? Now we look, cheap tickets to the Canary Islands. We celebrate Tenerife and the proposed neighboring airports.
For only €22 without luggage you will fly to the paradise islands from Madrid and Barcelona!
Everything is fine, but this site almost does not look for tickets from Russia, but there are several more services:
Google Flights
A good mode with the display of prices on the map.
skyscanner
But not everything is so smooth. You see the prices found in the last 15 days, which means that the lowest prices are most likely no longer relevant. Suitable only as an additional tool for searching.
Price map from Aviasales
Which service is better?
There is no perfect tool to say that I want to go to the sea in June and he gave you great options. Some search engine is good at looking for low-cost airlines in Europe, some covers a large range of dates, and some shows irrelevant information.
I look everywhere, scoring different options and dates. For example, I watch from Perm to Portugal, and then from Perm to Moscow + from Moscow to Germany + from Germany to Portugal. I write down all the suitable options in a notebook. Then I go to the websites of airlines, to, to and buy where it’s cheaper.
Budget holidays at sea - the most relevant topic in the summer. You can organize a vacation for yourself not only in Russia, but also abroad.
About tickets...
Self-guided trips to resorts are usually much cheaper than package tours. But this rule does not always work. For a number of foreign destinations, it is sometimes cheaper to purchase a last-minute tour, the cost of which may even be lower than the flight. You can choose such trips on the relevant resources.
Rules for finding a budget holiday
If you plan to independently organize a budget vacation at sea for yourself, then you should be guided by the following rules:
- The first thing that will help save money is the refusal to rest during the high season. When planning a vacation, you should focus on the beginning or end of the season. For domestic resorts, this is May, early June and September. Firstly, at this time there is no such tangible heat, and secondly, the sea is warm. And yes, prices vary greatly. If swimming in the sea is not a matter of principle for you, and you are ready to relax by the pool and go on excursions, then in countries such as Bulgaria and Turkey, you can economically relax from October to April. During this period, even the most luxurious hotels give significant discounts, so the rest becomes much more affordable. Many foreign resort complexes have heated pools that save the day when the sea is cold.
- If you want to spend your holidays in Bulgaria and Turkey, then you should opt not for half board, but for everyone's favorite concept. Initially, it may seem to you that you are overpaying extra money, but in fact, buying drinks and food will cost you much more.
- In order to organize the most budgetary vacation at sea abroad, you need to purchase last-minute tours or use the early booking service.
- Do not forget that the rest alone is much more expensive than in the company.
Sochi and Adler
Sochi and Adler are the obvious solution for a budget seaside vacation in Russia. Tickets for the Moscow-Adler plane are relatively inexpensive - from about 5800 rubles. The Pobeda low-cost airline still flies in this direction. In this company, you can buy cheaper tickets - from a thousand rubles, but it should be borne in mind that they are quickly taken apart.
You can rent a house in Sochi from 20 dollars (1200 rubles), in Adler it is much cheaper - from 10 dollars (600 rubles). You can eat at the resorts in budget canteens.
In Sochi, inexpensive rooms are offered by three-star hotels Roza Vetrov and Valentin, the cost of a double room in them will cost 3000 and 3200 rubles per day. For a resort, such prices can be considered quite democratic. Both establishments have a good location - in the heart of the city.
The two-star complex "Nairi" offers double rooms with a balcony for 2700 rubles. The hotel has a sauna, bar, massage, swimming pool and much more.
Fans of comfortable rooms and good service can recommend the four-star establishments Park Inn by Radisson and Zhemchuzhina, a stay in them per day will cost 4,600 and 5,200 rubles, respectively.
Accommodation in Adler
For those who are planning a budget seaside vacation in Russia, Adler can be an ideal option. The resort has not only expensive hotels, but also quite budgetary establishments and even guesthouses. The choice of housing is quite large. Among the tested hotels, we can recommend the three-star Almira (3,000 rubles) with excellent rooms and good service, the more expensive Vesna complex (5,000 rubles), which has the most positive reviews and excellent infrastructure (swimming pool, sauna, tennis courts, massage).
Accommodation in four-star hotels in Adler will cost a little more. "AS-Hotel" offers double apartments from three thousand rubles. This is a fairly budget option, since in more eminent establishments rooms cost from seven thousand rubles.
Crimea
Speaking about a budget vacation at sea with children, you should pay attention to the Crimea. In 2017, the cost of a Moscow-Simferopol ticket by plane will cost about 7,000 rubles, and in autumn and spring it will be even cheaper. From Simferopol you can get to any resort on the peninsula.
Budget food in Sudak, for example, will cost 200-300 rubles in the dining room (dinner, lunch, breakfast). If you want to order food in restaurants, then the amount of food expenses will increase to 500 rubles.
The most budgetary seaside vacation in Russia can only be provided if you live in the private sector. In Crimea, for example, you can choose small villages for recreation - Olenevka, Nikolaevka, Shtormovoe. In such places in guest houses you can find rooms even for three hundred rubles a day. In larger and more famous resorts, prices are higher. The minimum cost of living increases to 600 rubles per room. The average cost of living in 2017 in the private sector starts from a thousand rubles for a double apartment. In general, the villages can be safely considered as a budget holiday on the Black Sea with children.
As for food, various eateries and canteens, national cafes, canteens at guest houses with home cooking, and fast food establishments can be considered as a budget option. Remember that the more you move away from the coast, the lower the price of food. In canteens and inexpensive cafes you can eat for two hundred rubles, and in an inexpensive restaurant for at least 400 rubles. Food prices are more democratic in small resort villages. Accommodation and food in Yalta will cost much more than in other places, although budget places can be found here.
Sea of Azov resorts
Budget holidays on the Sea of Azov can be offered in the villages of Peresyp, Kuchugury and Ilyich. These small villages have good sandy beaches and little developed infrastructure. Here you can find accommodation mainly in guest houses and the private sector.
It will cost a little more to stay in the village of Golubitskaya and Yeisk, which has pretty decent hotels, an embankment, a cafe and a park. Stanitsa Golubitskaya also has a well-developed infrastructure. There is a nightclub, water attractions, mini-hotels and Renting a house in the village of Ilyich in 2017 will cost 1.5-3 thousand rubles, in Taman and Peresyp - up to 2.5 thousand rubles, and in the village of Golubitskaya - up to 6 thousand rubles. Accommodation in the private sector costs an average of 250-600 rubles per person per day.
The resort villages of the Sea of Azov are not so developed, but they are incredibly convenient for families with children. The warm shallow sea is the best place for kids.
Italy
If you are looking for options for a budget vacation at sea in European countries, then you should pay attention to Italy. From Moscow you can take inexpensive tickets to the main cities of the country - Milan, Rome, Venice. The cost of a flight to these destinations is always cheaper (from 9,000 rubles) than to small cities. And directly to the resorts can be reached by local buses.
A budget seaside vacation in Italy can be organized at one of the most famous resorts - Rimini. Of course, accommodation in local hotels cannot be called cheap - from $35 per room per night, but such offers are quite rare. On average, it is worth focusing on 50-100 dollars a day. In terms of meals, the minimum cost for breakfast is $4, lunch is $7, and dinner is over $10.
It is worth noting that Rimini is known for its beaches and warm water with shallow entry, so the resort is perfect for a budget seaside vacation with children. The resort has a well-developed infrastructure and a good selection of hotels for every taste and budget. Rimini is also in demand among young people.
Bulgaria
In Bulgaria, you can organize the most budgetary holidays on the Black Sea abroad, which is why all local resorts are incredibly popular among tourists. Sunny Beach is considered the most democratic place to stay. Fine sand on the beaches and a gentle entrance to the sea have long been loved by supporters of beach and sea holidays. The coast has a width of about forty meters, and in length it stretches for eight kilometers. In modest hotels, you can rent a small room for $19 per night.
An even more budgetary vacation on the Black Sea can only be in small Bulgarian seaside villages and towns. In such areas there are many two- and three-star hotels, as well as guest houses in the private sector. Locals often rent out the upper floors of their houses to tourists. Holidays in Kranevo, Balchik, Nessebar, St. Vlas, Pomorie, Ravda and Tsarevo can be economical.
Sometimes tours to Bulgarian resorts can be purchased at very affordable prices (from 20 thousand rubles). And promotional offers can be even more attractive. And this despite the fact that the cost of the tour includes accommodation, flights, insurance and transfers.
Bulgaria is interesting for many travelers because it offers a budget seaside vacation in September. At this time, the air temperature drops to +25 degrees, there is no summer heat and heat, and the sea water remains warm. In September it is good to have a rest in Nessebar, Sofia, Sozopol, Balchik, Plovdiv and Varna. The cost of living in the resorts is reduced, because there is no large influx of tourists.
Croatia
Budget holidays at sea abroad can offer Croatia. The cost of a ticket from Moscow to Dubrovnik, Pula or Split in both directions is 13 thousand rubles. In such well-known hotel prices are quite high. You can rent an economy room for $30. And, for example, in Dubrovnik, you will have to pay at least $ 40 for a night in a guesthouse, while the institution will be located far from the historical center. The cost of rooms in four-star hotels starts at $130.
If you consider small towns, such as Plat and Cavtat, as a vacation spot, you can save a lot. Resort villages offer clear sea, clean air and beautiful beaches on the Adriatic coast. What else do you need for a holiday with children?
Cyprus
Cyprus can also be considered as a place for a budget vacation at sea in the summer. The cost of a flight from Moscow to Larnaca in the summer is about 10,600 rubles. Aircraft of Pobeda Airlines now fly to Cyprus. Sometimes a flight to a country can be incredibly budget-friendly, especially if you are lucky enough to take advantage of a promotion from one of the airlines. But it is not so easy to save money on living in Cyprus. The most budget rooms in Limassol, Larnaca and Paphos cost at least $33 per night. On average, the cost of rooms in hotels ranges from 40-60 dollars.
Meals in an inexpensive institution will cost up to $ 50 per day per person. For those who want to save money, we can recommend buying food in supermarkets. As a budget option, you can rent a studio with a kitchen, then you will have the opportunity to greatly reduce food costs.
Greece
A more budget option for a seaside holiday, unlike Cyprus, can be arranged in Greece. A flight from Moscow to Athens or Thessaloniki will cost about 8,800 rubles. But tickets to Corfu, Crete and Rhodes are much more expensive (12,000 rubles).
Accommodation in the most inexpensive hotel in Thessaloniki will cost about $ 25 per day for a double apartment, in Crete - $ 29. But in Rhodes you can find cheaper establishments, for $ 17 you will be offered a completely acceptable room.
Budget food in an inexpensive cafe will cost an average of about $15 per day (dinner - 6, lunch - 5, and breakfast - 4 dollars). On average, a vacation in Greece will cost a tourist at least $250-350 per week.
Turkey
Like it or not, but Turkey again leads the list of countries with seaside resorts. It is in it that the most budgetary vacation at sea abroad. Many Russians have chosen Turkish resorts and have long felt at home there. Here you can not only relax comfortably on the Black or Mediterranean Sea, but also go shopping, as well as see local beauties and sights. The main advantage of Turkish hotels is excellent animation, good infrastructure and, of course, All Inclusive.
The cost of holidays in Turkey depends on the season, resort and season. So, for example, a vacation in Antalya costs about $200, in Kemer - $250, but in Istanbul - $350. A two-week tour for two can be purchased at prices ranging from $1,000 to $1,500. And if you're lucky and manage to find a last-minute vacation, then the most budget vacation at sea in the fall can cost half as much as in the season. Russians prefer Turkish resorts for the possibility of a good rest and food, for numerous sights and the cleanest sea.
Egypt
Egypt, along with Turkey, leads the list of budget countries for seaside holidays. This direction has long been studied by the Russians. Egypt offers tourists good service, warm climate, good infrastructure and plenty of entertainment. All this can be obtained for $ 250 for a week's vacation.
The gentle sun, the Red Sea and "all inclusive" - this is what tourists seek to get to Egypt for. Do not forget that local attractions are of great interest - the most ancient architectural monuments: the Sphinx, the pyramids, Luxor. These places are a must visit place for every traveler.
Thailand
Another budget option for a seaside holiday is Thailand. This country is no less popular as a beach resort than Egypt and Turkey. The high season in Thailand starts around mid-autumn and ends at the beginning of winter. Therefore, the most budget tours are in May and April.
A ten-day vacation in Thailand will cost 700-800 dollars. Experienced tour operators believe that it is in this country that you can relax the cheapest in 2017. This is due to the fact that in any region of the country you can have a great rest for 15-25 dollars. per day. If you decide to visit the country on your own, then you should expect that you will need about $ 400 per month for housing if you rent an apartment in the center of Pattaya.
But on such islands as Chang, Phuket, Phi Phi, Koh Samui, you can rent a room for only 150-200 dollars per month. If you do not classify yourself as a spoiled person, then you will find a room for $90.
The advantage of a holiday in Thailand is that the products here are incredibly cheap. And because food costs mere pennies. A hundred dollars a month will be enough for food. In any cafe for two dollars you can have a delicious lunch, and lunch in a restaurant will cost six dollars.
Vietnam
Vietnam is an amazingly beautiful place. Here you can find many places, almost untouched by human hand. In recent years, the popularity of Vietnamese resorts has been growing more and more. And despite this, holidays in the country remain as affordable as ever. For ten dollars a day in Vietnam, you can live, eat, go on excursions and go for a massage. And if you have $ 20 a day in your budget, you can generally not deny yourself anything. For a wonderful vacation for a month, it is enough to have $400-500 in your pocket (not counting the cost of the flight).
Goa (India)
Goa is also one of the popular budget destinations. Here, with 100 dollars, you can have a great rest and not deny yourself anything, especially if you decide to visit North Goa.
Rest in the resort for Europeans is very cheap, especially away from cities. The cost of a holiday in Goa increases in winter, because at this time the high season begins.
For a budget holiday, you can recommend purchasing a ticket in the off-season, then the tour, together with the flight, can cost from $ 400. If you prefer to stay not in a hotel, but in a cheap guesthouse, you can save up to 30% of your budget. Goa is popular among our compatriots due to its good tropical climate and the opportunity to relax almost all year round.
Abkhazia
Do not forget that Abkhazia can also offer a budget holiday at sea. Since it is located next to Russia, there is no need to spend money on an expensive flight. Many tourists go to Abkhazia because of the opportunity to have an inexpensive vacation on the Black Sea, especially since Russians do not need any additional documents (passports and visas). And the road to the Abkhazian resorts does not take much time.
If your budget is not too large, then you can stay in the private sector, where the cost of budget housing ranges from 300-350 rubles per person per day. More comfortable apartments will cost about 500 rubles. In general, a week-long vacation without a trip will require from you approximately 5600 to 10 thousand rubles per tourist. In the private sector, accommodation is much cheaper than in boarding houses and sanatoriums. If we talk about a budget holiday in Abkhazia, then you will need about 22 thousand rubles for two. Having 30 thousand rubles, you can also afford to see the beautiful sights of this amazing region.
Budget holidays at sea in August
August is in the yard, and summer is coming to an end, so many people want to grab a piece of sun and warmth on the sunny coast, and therefore they are wondering where to go to the resort at this time.
The most budget vacation can be organized in Abkhazia. No less successful will be a vacation in Croatia. At this time, the weather here is ideal for sea swimming. Resort hotel complexes are not as luxurious as in other countries, but their cost is more acceptable, and therefore Croatia is most suitable for a budget holiday. In August, the air temperature is +30 degrees, and water - +26 degrees.
At the end of summer, many resorts in southern Europe simply languish under the scorching sun, so not everyone wants to go here. But Portugal in August is comfortable for rest in every sense. The water temperature on the Atlantic coast is +20 degrees, and the air temperature is +25-27 degrees.
Incredibly comfortable holiday conditions on the island of Madeira. In Portugal, there are many well-preserved historical monuments that will be of interest to tourists.
Good for an August holiday and the Canary Islands. At this time, the daytime temperature reaches +29 degrees, and the ocean warms up to +23 degrees.
In August, most European resorts are not very comfortable for recreation due to the heat, but at the same time, the flow of tourists to them does not weaken. Turkey, Greece, Spain and Cyprus are still popular. Often vacationers prefer to go to more northern areas of resorts: Corfu, Paphos, Rimini, etc.
As for the budget resorts on the Black Sea, Abkhazia, Georgia, Bulgaria, Sochi, Adler and settlements on the Sea of Azov are still relevant in August. At this time, prices in domestic resorts are not the most affordable, but you can find acceptable options.

In Japan, there are a lot of free city parks with beautiful views. Entrance to some gardens is paid - $ 2-2.5, castles - $ 4-6. A trip to the museum will cost $ 2.5-5, and a visit to the amusement park - $ 60 for the whole day.
Many people love traveling, but consider such leisure as an inaccessible luxury. Victoria Days has prepared material about countries and cities where you can have a good rest and not spend fabulous money.
This article is intended for persons over 18 years of age.
Are you over 18 already?
There are so many interesting places in the world, and there is a desire to visit different parts of the globe. I want to go to Bali, Argentina, America, New Zealand and many more places, but most often after looking at the prices for tickets / hotels or the cost of a package tour, the tour operator loses the desire. I can say with confidence that it is possible to relax inexpensively, you just need to know where and at what time it is best to go on a trip.
What is the cost of travel?
- Road: airline tickets, train tickets, bus tickets, personal transport.
- Accommodation. There are many options where you can live or just spend the night - villas, apartments, hotels, hostels, guesthouses. The price depends on your choice.
- Costs for nutrition. You can, of course, go to restaurants every day, but we want to save money, so we need to try to find the best price-quality ratio. You can cook on your own, but this is not the best option: it is still a vacation, and it is unlikely that pleasant memories will remain from it if you spend whole days at the stove.
- Tours. You can go on an excursion on your own, with a guide or not go at all.
- Insurance. There is no need to save here. Always buy insurance, at least the minimum.
- Souvenirs.
Asian countries
India
It is the leader among Asian countries. For a budget trip, it is best to choose the state of Goa. The "dry season" starts from November and lasts until April. In the north of Goa, you can find good and inexpensive accommodation.
Advice! When booking your stay, always pay attention to the presence / absence of air conditioning. Food in the state is cheap, seafood, exotic fruits, Indian sweets are always fresh and inexpensive. There are many cafes / bars on the beaches, where a fresh tasty dish will be prepared for a penny. It is definitely not worth wasting time and effort on cooking. It is best to go on excursions on your own: the standard of living in the country is low, so any tourist can afford to travel by train in comfortable conditions.
Thailand
Our tourists like to have a rest in this country very much. If you book your tickets in advance, you can save a lot. For example, a flight from Moscow to Bangkok is long, so you need to understand that you can’t buy a ticket for nothing. But the accommodations are cheap, and the choice is large. Do not be afraid of 2 * or 3 * hotels. This is the best category of hotels for holidays in Thailand. Most often these are small hotels with o medium sized rooms and minimal furniture. Most hotels have a pool.
Advice! The country is exotic, the fauna is diverse, and if you are not particularly fond of lizards and other inhabitants of exotic countries, when you check in, ask to settle you above the 1st floor. Meals will cost you inexpensively, you can eat seafood and fruits all your vacation or buy ready-made meals in supermarkets.
Vietnam
Shares leadership with Thailand. The most expensive thing in traveling is air travel, everything else is hotels, meals and excursions. - very budget friendly. If you choose the resorts of Mui Ne and Phan Thiet, then I advise you to mentally prepare for a long transfer from the airport to the resort, and if you are organizing a trip yourself, then it is better to take care of the transfer in advance, since prices at the airport are high.
Bali
Untouched nature, cheap housing, an abundance of fruits attract tourists from all over the world. Dreaming of surfing? You are definitely in Bali.
An incredible number of surf schools are concentrated here. Bali is interesting in that each resort is unique in its own way, you can move from one resort to another every two days. Air travel is expensive, but you can buy tickets with transfers, for example, in Singapore, and thus not only save money, but also visit two completely different places in one vacation.
Cambodia
If you enter in the search engines "the cheapest country to vacation", then one of the first answers will be Cambodia. This direction is becoming more and more popular every year. Everything in the country is indecently cheap, but air travel is expensive, and it is extremely difficult to get cheap air tickets. If you decide to choose a holiday destination in Cambodia, be sure to visit the temple of Angkor Wat.
Uzbekistan
I sincerely recommend visiting this country. Do not be surprised and do not discard this option. I agree that some people love constancy and vacation in the same place year after year. But is it not interesting to see other cities and countries? It is worth going to Uzbekistan if you are interested in excursion programs and you have five days of additional vacation or days off. To come to this country for a longer period, in my opinion, does not make sense.
Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva - these cities are definitely worth a visit. Mosques, mausoleums, palaces and, certainly the bazaars are worthy of the attention of tourists.
Europe
Bulgaria
Bulgaria is considered the most budgetary beach destination. This is not surprising. Here it will be interesting for everyone: and youth, and families with children, and lovers of excursions, and for those who want to improve their health.
Prices are low, airfare from Moscow is inexpensive, accommodation too. Many accommodations operate on all inclusive, but you can book a hotel without power - places where you can taste and cheap food, lots of it. The climate is mild and familiar to most residents of Russia, respectively, acclimatization is most likely not will. Flight around 3 hours. Season in Bulgaria short, with June to September. Many tourists after their holidays buy property in Bulgaria (it is inexpensive here, by the way).
Greece
Another beach destination is Greece. You can write about Greece for a long time, it is an amazing country with incredibly hospitable locals. More than 3000 islands, of which 178 are inhabited. Greece is washed by the Mediterranean, Ionian, Aegean, Adriatic, Cretan, Libyan, Thracian seas. Is it worth writing that absolutely everyone can find a place to their liking?
Flying to Greece is not long, there are many airlines, so ticket prices are low. And in Greece itself, prices are moderate, and products are “from their own garden”. Of course, there are expensive islands, such as Kefalonia, and there are also cheap ones, such as Crete.
Advice! It is better to choose a restaurant / cafe away from the city center and without perfectly white tablecloths, according to the principle “the simpler, the tastier”. Portions in restaurants are huge, a lot of money will not be spent on food. The "high season" in Greece is from the end of May to mid-October, although on some islands, for example, Thassos, it will be comfortable at the end of October.
Montenegro
Montenegro is a country where Russian citizens can travel without a visa. Unfortunately, planes do not fly often, so you won't be able to find budget tickets. But the country itself is inexpensive, you can rent a house away from the sea quite inexpensively. Food prices are quite reasonable.
Czech Republic
Now not about sea, but no less attractive countries. I'll start with the Czech Republic.
One of the cheapest countries in Europe. You can come to the Czech Republic at any time of the year. In summer, the weather is not hot, while in winter the whole country is immersed in Christmas beauty. The farther from the center, the cheaper accommodation, in addition, you can stay in a hostel. The price per night per person is about 10 euros, so be prepared for several other people to share the room with you. You can fly to the Czech Republic just for the weekend, drink delicious beer and try pork knuckle or feel the atmospheric architecture. Many come to the country for treatment, for example, to Karlovy Vary. Compared to the rest of Europe, the prices are nicer, but far from low.
Poland
In Poland, you can come to rest all year round. Residents of the western part of Russia love this country very much, because you can get there by car. Food and restaurant prices are low by European standards. Many people come to Warsaw for shopping, other - to buy "sanctioned cheese", others - just take a walk, and some ski here in the winter to budget ski resorts. In almost every city you can see medieval castles. For those who want to have a cheap vacation in Europe, I would recommend starting with Poland.
Hungary
Hungary for some reason does not occupy a leading position in the list of mass tourist destinations. In my opinion, in vain. The country is very interesting and inexpensive.
Vajdahunyad Castleis not the only architectural landmark of the country, there is something to see in Hungary. Lakes and parks will also surprise even sophisticated tourists with their diversity. Thermal springs or "thermal sea" - that's why tourists come to Hungary in the first place.
Advice! Be sure to visit the Lukács thermal bath, which has not yet become a place of mass tourism. Here you can relax and enjoy the tranquility. You should not leave the country without trying Hungarian goulash. Prices in restaurants and shops will pleasantly surprise you. There are many accommodation facilities, and everyone can choose what they like and can afford.
Armenia
A country with stunning nature, culture, cuisine and delicious wine. Add a cheap flight, low housing and food prices, and we get a country where you can safely go on vacation. You can plan a vacation at any time of the year: winter is for lovers of skiing and snowboarding, and in summer Lake Sevan awaits tourists. It will be interesting to visit various shrines, for example, Tatev. You should definitely try the delicious local cuisine, the prices are very affordable. And as a souvenir, you can bring the famous ARARAT cognac.
When is the best time to plan a trip to the above countries? If you are planning a trip to seasonal countries, then it is best to choose the very beginning of the season or the end, when mass tourism is just gaining momentum. Read more about this in the article "". If high humidity does not scare you, then you can go to Asian countries out of season. As for European cities, it is best to focus on ticket prices here, since you can relax in them all year round.
1. If you go on a trip at the very beginning or at the end of the season, you can save a lot.
2. If you book a tour with a tour operator, do not be lazy and check the cost of the tour with all tour operators. You can use search engines, for example, RUSPO, but they do not always display information correctly.
3. Prices skyrocket during school holidays and holidays, do not plan your vacation during this period.
4. A good time to travel is the end of November-mid-December and second half of January. Air carriers and hoteliers discount prices before and after the New Year holidays.
5. If possible, do not get attached to the dates, sometimes a couple of days earlier / later than the desired date, air tickets are cheaper.
6. Don't be afraid of connecting flights.
7. When booking air tickets on your own, do not be lazy and search every day, compare ticket prices on different services. On a personal example, I can say: who seeks, he will find. I booked tickets for my friends to the Maldives with a connection in the UAE and Sri Lanka for only 22,000 rubles per person, and they flew with the airline Emirates. So, if you have the desire and patience, you can also relax in expensive countries on a budget.
8. Browse various search resources, for example, 100500miles . If there is no attachment to dates and directions, you can easily catch a burning tour.
9. The same principle applies to the choice of accommodation: compare prices and track interesting offers.
10. For adventurous and relocating tourists: use the night to move from one place to another, so you can save on hotel nights.
11. You can go on excursions on your own, how to get there can be found on the Internet.
12. Restaurants and cafes are better to choose those where the locals eat. It is also an indicator of the quality of food.
When saving on travel, be prepared for possible (I emphasize, possible) inconveniences. Your attitude is important, and you can ignore small inconveniences. Be positive about everything, and then any trip, no matter how much money you paid, will bring you pleasure!
