One exciting thing about this destination is the safari experience that awaits you. You will get to interact with the Big Five without incurring huge bills.

The lovely beaches and abundant wildlife are all at your disposal at very affordable prices. Consider going to Cabo Polonio for a fantastic beach experience.

3.   Cuba

The warming relations between Cuba and the US have made the former an attractive traveling destination.

4.   Guatemala

The Maya traditions and colonial legacies are attractions you do not want to miss while in Guatemala. The destination will wow you with its beauty, and the rock-bottom prices will allow you the opportunity to study Spanish.

5.   Bulgaria

Bulgaria is often overlooked as a tourist destination site, yet has a myriad of fun activities to offer travelers on a budget. The appealing coastline, lovely old towns with a rich history and breath-taking mountain ranges are perfect for excursions by bike or on foot.
