Save Big at these Budget-Friendly International Destinations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Alsace Region, France<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Alsace<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to its unique location near the German and Swiss borders, Alsace is a true melting pot of several different cultures. It\u2019s one of the most beautiful regions in Europe and is most known for its Christmas markets, wine (primarily white), and gorgeous castles. Flights to Alsace are comparable to those to other European destinations and will likely be the most expensive element of your trip depending on where you\u2019re traveling from. But hotels won\u2019t have your wallet hurting, as most hover around $100 per night.

2. Brisbane, Australia<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Generally speaking, Australia isn\u2019t the cheapest place to travel. But, Brisbane offers impressive bang-for-your-buck. The area is most known for its warm weather, laid-back locals, and all-around welcoming atmosphere. Brisbane is home to many art galleries, some of which offer free admission, along with public pools throughout the city that cost less than $10 to enjoy. Street food and small eateries are abundant in Brisbane and are great ways to enjoy local cuisine while saving a few dollars.\u00a0

Not only is H\u1ed9i An one of the most budget-friendly international destinations, but it offers a cultural experience like no other. It\u2019s located on the central coast of Vietnam and is cherished for its impeccably preserved ancient architecture. A walk down the streets of the city, lined with shops, pagodas, shrines, and tea houses, will take you right back to the 15th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Northern Thailand<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One thing to note about Northern Thailand is that you can explore the beautiful landscape on a tight budget. Basic dorms and rooms range in the single digits per day and food is also relatively inexpensive – especially with delicious Pad Thai being served around every corner. Visiting magnificent sights such as the White Temple<\/a> doesn’t cost a pretty penny and neither does exploring the area’s waterfalls, caves, and jungle trails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Madeira, Portugal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Madeira\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Paradise has never been more affordable than in beautiful Madeira, Portugal. The subtropical island is known for its rugged coastline, turquoise waters, and, believe it or not, wine! Airfare from a major airport in the states will only cost about $600-$1,000 round trip depending on the airline – far cheaper than other routes to and from Europe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
