Glad to see you mention my home town, Liverpool. I used to work inside one of the three graces. A few local tips for those travelling to Liverpool: - Most of the galleries and museums are free (but you can leave a donation). I'd highly recommend the Walker Art Gallery, Museum of Liverpool, International Slavery Museum, Tate Liverpool (currently closed for renovation until mid-2025), and the World Museum (a great one for kids). - Some nice day trips: Chester (beautiful city with loads of great Roman history and Tudor architecture 45 minutes away on the train - there's also a great zoo and an aquarium near there), Formby (for beach, pine woods, and red squirrel spotting), Port Sunlight (quaint village on the way to Chester with a nice art gallery - the Lady Lever), Manchester (another large city 34 minutes to an hour away by train with a completely different vibe). - The Beatles didn't just play the cavern: you can also visit the Jacaranda in the Ropewalks area of the City Centre. - Try a bowl of scouse. It's good hearty "scran" (translation: food). - See the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, the oldest professional orchestra in the UK, play some great classical music. Even the cheap seats (about £20) in the Philharmonic Hall (a.k.a. "the phil") still offer a great experience (plus they have discounted tickets for under 25s, students, and benefit/welfare claimants). Being in Liverpool, it isn't snobby or pretentious in the slightest - you don't need to get "dressed up" but you can if you want to. - If you like Shakespeare, the Shakespeare North Playhouse in nearby Prescot (about 20 minutes on the train from Lime Street) is a great place to see a play. Knowsley Safari Park is also near there. - Bold Street is the place to go for independent restaurants, coffeeshops, vintage shopping, and charity shops. The bombed out church is also at the top of Bold Street: a church which was bombed by the Nazis during World War II - the roof is gone, but the walls remain as a monument to the blitz. - Pack an umbrella or waterproof jacket (whatever time of the year you go). - There are great views to be found at the top of central library (which is free), and from the top of the Anglican Cathedral (costs £7 but it's worth it). - If you're flying into Liverpool John Lennon and staying in the city centre: rather than getting a taxi from Liverpool John Lennon Airport all the way into the city centre, you can save money by getting a taxi (or hop on a bus) to Liverpool South Parkway train station, then get the Merseyrail train towards either Ormskirk or Southport from there (departing every 15 minutes), getting off the train at Liverpool Central or Moorfields (whichever is closest to your accommodation). This train journey takes about 20 minutes. - If you're leaving by train to go to another place in Britain and want to buy a book to read during the journey, Henry Bohn Books near Lime Street Station is a treasure trove for bibliophiles (as is Reid of Liverpool in the Georgian Quarter). Also, the 92 degrees kiosk in Lime Street station does great coffee. - Don't worry about the city's reputation or what British people who haven't been to Liverpool since 2008 say about the city. It's a really friendly, inclusive, welcoming city. As long as you stay away from rougher areas at night and be sensible, you'll be fine. There were some issues with protestors flocking to the city briefly in summer 2024 following the tragic murder of three children in nearby Southport, but those issues are over now and very unlikely to flare up again. Walking around the city the last couple of months things have been very much "back to normal". - If a local calls you "la" that means they like you (platonically). - For green space, St James Mount (by the Anglican Cathedral), and Sefton Park (near St. Michaels train station and Smithdown Road) are great.

You are absolutely right when you say that there are no cheap destinations anymore and I also agree with your decision to talk about the destinations that give you the best bang for the buck. People should always remember that "cheap" is a relative thing. If you live in Scandinavia and have a well paying job there, pretty much all of Europe will be "cheap" for you. If you live in an Eastern European country and earn an average Eastern European wage, nowhere in Europe will be "cheap", including your own country. Still, there are better deals and worse deals that you can get when traveling, and you should look for that.

Having gone to Romania in 2021, it is still the place that I will not shut up about - and anyone who asks for where to travel, I will tell them Romania! I did a 10-day trip with 4 days with a personal tour guide (with two other friends) and the man drove us all over - Snagov, Brasov, Sinaia, Bran, Alba Iulia, Cluj-Napoca, Sibiu, Sighisoara, Hunedoara, Curtea de Arges, Poenari...and he even changed up our itinerary a bit after asking us if there was anything during the next few days we want to do that wasn't on our itinerary. I really wanted to go to a salt mine, so he arranged things for us to go to Turda in the morning because it's a better salt mine to visit than Slanic Prahova. It was a wonderful excursion so different from all the churches and castles, and I'm glad we were able to do it. Our last full day together we spent driving towards Bucharest on the Transfagarasan Highway. In fall with all the colored leaves, 60 degree weather with clear, sunny skies - it felt like a dream. And we got to feed a bear. 12/10 Romania is an incredible trip!

@@lilli2914 I had almost the exact opposite experience in 2023. I guess food and drinks in Bodrum and Marmaris can get kinda high but hotels in Istanbul, Goreme, and Antalya were cheap and most Turkish food (kahvalti, menemen, kebab, kumpir, midye) was abundant.

Malta’s top of my list. Only downside is that flying there from the US is pricey. Everything else is a good bang for your buck. Public transit goes everywhere on the islands. Hotel Europa in Sliema is cheap. The Pastizzi are 50¢ a pop. I’d go back in a heartbeat if I could.

When I see you being in Riga and talk about affordable cities, I would advise you to go to the partner city of Riga called Bremen in Germany, it's one of the cheapest big cities in Germany with a beautiful old town and many free concerts on the weekends and affordable museums, it is just 1 hour by regional train away from Hamburg and 1 hour away from the Nordic sea, definitely a city one should not skip on their germany trip

Bamberg is amazing. When our kid graduated college, we all went to Germany (where my wife lived for years before we met). That was the trip to Bamberg, which was fantastic!! Also, Anne and I went to Cordoba about six weeks ago. Liked it much more than Sevilla or Madrid.

Visited Tallinn, Pärnu, Riga and Jūrmala previous year in June. I had a really nice time there considering that I was lucky with the weather too :-). Regarding the prices though... It's definitely not cheap like it was 10-15 years ago, at least for my Swedish wallet 😅🥲. Considering how weak the Swedish crown is against the € and USD nowadays.... I could also say Gothenburg is worth visiting now 🙂.

I really enjoyed Bratislava when I was in eastern Europe in June. Dresden is also a wonderful little town and beautifully restored. Not so crowded as Prague

I second Córdoba wonderful City, small related to Seville and Granada but lots to do. The Grand Mosque was on my bucket list. So glad I got to see it last September, even higher up for me than the Alhambra which was also amazing. The year earlier we were In Ireland and I was hoping to see things related to Enya, but she hasn't released an album in a while and I saw much more on Garth Brooks. Ironically, there's a small museum across the street from the Grand Mosque that was blasting Enya!

I would pick Granada over both Seville and Cordoba. It felt smaller and has that wonderful setting.

@@MsTimelady71 I thought Córdoba was smaller than Granada. Regardless I agree and Granada is my favorite of the three.

2:05 YEAH BABY! And it’s literally right across the river from Vienna! I love Bratislava. I went there on a mission trip in 2003 fell in love and I’ve been back numerous times. Super easy to get there because Vienna has a lot of flights to Vienna and then it’s right across the river. There are so many things in Bratislava that I would recommend eating and seeing and trying. I just love it. I don’t know what the dishes called, but there’s some sort of sheep cheese curd dish sometimes it has potatoes in it whatever it is, it’s amazing. And they have their own root beer Coke type thing called Kofola something like that. I really like it usually it served warm, but you can have it either way. Just remember ice isn’t really a thing in Europe unless you ask for it.

those two destinations in Romania are at the top of my list in general ,regardless of budget friendly travel vacations, and I'd have to say the Baltics as well. I still want to go to Estonia although it may be pricer, but Tallinn just seems like a nice vacation.
