How about then cheap' value-destinations that will give you maximum bang for your buck? More and more travelers today look forward to such destinations where they get the best value for less money.
Lonely Planet, based upon the strength of the traveller's national currency vis a vis that of the destination currency, cost of living, economic slump, political and natural turmoil in many countries and other such factors, have picked up top 10 value-destinations for the year 2010. The destinations that appeared in the list included Iceland, Thailand, South Africa, India, apart from Bulgaria, Mexico, Kenya, Malaysia, London and Las Vegas.
Iceland had its currency depreciating dramatically against the Pound and the US dollar making it an affordable short haul destination especially for Britons. Iceland's national carrier Icelandair has also reported to have slashed their prices to attract more travellers.
Thailand was recently struck by months' long political strife with most nations warning their citizens against travel to this country. Now when things are coming back to normal, the advice has been eased and in order to attract the holidaymakers, the hotels and resorts as well as many airlines are offering great discounts to numerous destinations in Thailand.
South Africa due to its low cost of living is an affordable destination for travellers. The Pound also strengthened against the SA Rand during the last year. There are many cheap flights to South Africa from Britain. However, FIFA is likely to set the prices of the hotels and accommodation in South Africa on an upward spiral.
India has always been an affordable destination for Britons. Kerala, Goa, Delhi are few of the states that are highly sought after and offer economically priced luxury as well as cheap accommodations. There are a number of direct and indirect connections from UK to most Indian cities.
The availability of cheap flights to London has found this city a place in the list of best value destinations for holidaymakers. The prices of hotels have plummeted over the last few years.
So pick your choice of a value destination and have a fun filled holiday before the prices soar.
