Family vacations in Europe: where to travel on a budget

Turkey, Portugal, and Bulgaria are in the top three places. 

It is emphasized that prices in European resorts have generally increased due to the general level of inflation on the continent.

How to save money while on vacation?

Experts recommend setting a fixed budget for each day of the vacation and, if the child asks for more entertainment for today, offer to postpone some of it to tomorrow.

Also, before choosing a place for dinner, it is worth comparing prices: cafes and restaurants located on the coast can be more expensive, so you should try to find an authentic cafe a little further from the sea. Don't forget to pay in the local currency.
