5 of the world's cheapest countries to go on holiday

April 15, 2015 4:39 PM

Thinking of where to go with a low budget look no further.

1. Vietnam

Vietnam despite its rise in popularity in the last few years, Unspoilt and undeveloped,, is still super cheap, as well as being a beautiful country.

With £5 a day you can get the luxury of a guest house, good food, transport and a bit of drinking. Just imagine what you get if you spend a bit more!

2. India

A stay in an International hotel in Delhi and a spending spree in Mumbai's designer shops which could be compared to what you would spend in a country like Dubai, but but done theother way round using a first class train and taking taxis, you’ll be hard pressed to spend a lot of money here. For £15 (1,100 Rupees) a day, you can live like royalty.

3. Bolivia

In the heart of capital La paz’s historic quarter, Calle Jaén, you’ll find one of the best preserved colonial streets in the whole of Bolivia. It definitely has style, and it also has four municipal museums. See them all for the grand total of 30p (55 cents). As if that weren’t enough (there's more to life than museums?!), Bolivia perhaps boasts the best value for food and drink in all of South America. For example, a bottle of Paceña beer costs less than £1 ($1) and a bowl of chairo (potato soup) about the same. There: beer and soup - bases covered.

4. Honduras

There's Belize. There's Costa Rica. There's even Guatemala. But for real bargain-basement Central American value, plump for Honduras. The country isn't up there on the most-visited lists, but if you do visit you'll discover white sand-and-palm beaches like the Maldives, diving to rival the Red Sea, and mega cheap food and drink, while spending less than £18 ($30) a day. Forget your money worries and have another cocktail!

5. Bulgaria

Bulgaria's Black Sea resorts have undergone a bit of a boom with British visitors in recent years, probably because they offer a total bargain compared with traditional summer sun destinations like the south of Spain. The further east you go, the cheaper it gets. If you prefer city breaking to beaches, capital Sofia offers hearty food, warm company, 'robust' drink and a comfy bed, which can all be yours for just £20 a day.
