Let’s be honest here. Not everybody has a lot of cash lying around to visit where they’d like. That shouldn’t discourage you from traveling – not at all. Even going to the cheapest countries to visit their natural landmarks and architectural wonders will help broaden your perspective.
We’ve decided to help out our fellow budget travelers with a few suggestions. Obviously, the world is a large place and it’s important to see as much of it as you can.
As such, we’ve researched which are the cheapest countries to visit on each continent. Australia and Antarctica are two special cases, so you can guess why we won’t include them here.
A little disclaimer: if you find a country that’s even more inexpensive for backpackers – make sure to tell us in the comments! In the meantime, let’s get this started.
#1 North America – Cuba
While Cuba is an island, it’s still considered a part of the North American continent. But let’s not bore you with geographical facts.
When you land in Cuba, it all feels like you’ve been transported back in time about 50 years. Classic American cars make their way through the streets, just like in old-timey movies!
Because of its economic problems, tourism plays a great role in Cuba. You can easily spend one month in Cuba and still not have enough of the place. That also means you can pretty much find lots of affordable casa particular to sleep in and places to visit.
Just be careful not to carry all your eggs in one basket, so to speak. No matter how little money you carry around, it will get stolen if you travel alone, at night, in dangerous areas, etc.
