9 de los países más baratos para visitar en Europa
Brianna Mills
Europe is a treasure trove of wonderful places. What's more, with low-cost carriers such as the cheap and cheerful EasyJet and Wizz Air flying people about the continent, it's now pretty cheap to get around. Using PayPal and PayPal Credit to pay for flights while you travel around also helps as it allows you to track your travel funds and make sure you are still keeping your travel experiences within budget. The thing is, when you get to where you want to go, the price of having a good time can be steep. Hotels, eating out, sight-seeing and getting around can rack up a hefty bill if you’re not careful. In fact, on the Telegraph’s list of the world's top 20 most expensive countries, 11 of them are in Europe!
It wouldn't be fair to tarnish the whole continent with that brush, however. There are still many cheap and cheerful places to visit in Europe with a lot to offer. Here's a few of the cheapest countries to visit in Europe and a rough price guide to help you weigh up the costs of visiting.
You must watch our handy video that will take you through the cheapest countries to visit in Europe in just a minute!

Ucrania: la forma más barata de fingir que eres un gran apostador

Kyiv has always had a reputation for being a cheap capital city compared to the rest of Europe and for good reason. Even compared to its Eastern European neighbours, you'll see your travel money go a lot further here. In fact, it's listed as the Telegraph's 6th cheapest country in the world. Kyiv itself is a beautiful city, but, for me, Lviv has more charm. It's a really interesting place to while away an afternoon, with quirky tourist attractions such as a masonic restaurant, as well as wonderful markets and an aromatic coffee roastery. Plus, due to cheap connecting intercontinental flights from Ukraine International Airlines, it also makes a wonderful alternative stopover destination and is one of the cheapest European cities to fly into!

Eslovaquia: la forma económica de disfrutar de las vistas a la montaña
The picturesque Tatra mountains in winter, Slovakia
Barato para ... Cerveza, Trenes, Esquí, Senderismo, Alquiler de bicicletas, Supermercados
Despite only being a day's cycle distance from the capital of Austria, Vienna, Bratislava is not nearly as popular as its neighbouring capital city. A lack of famous attractions doesn't help, though the pleasant and historic town center is worth a day meandering round. However it is worth a detour from Bratislava to the nearby Tatras, the highest part of the Carpathian mountain range. The dramatic scenery entices skiers in the winter and hikers in the summer. With this cheap European destination, you get all the benefits of the Austrian mountains without the extortionate cost.

Poland is hardly newsworthy as a cheap destination to visit in Europe. Many Europeans already take to the country for their budget weekend breaks. But why is it so popular? One reason is the nightlife. There's a fact circulating the internet that Krakow has the most pubs per square kilometre in the world. Whether that's true or not I can't say, but there's definitely some truth behind the rumour. The city is literally built upon medieval city bars.

Although Bulgaria gets the prize for the cheapest all-rounder European country, in many respects Romania is a close second. Thanks to diverse geography, Romania is increasingly popular as a budget destination in Europe for multi-activity holidays. The Transylvanian Alps are one of several mountain ranges and only a short train journey away from the Capital city of Bucharest. This is a stunning area for outdoor activities, not to mention the picturesque villages and castles that litter the landscape making you feel like you belong in a fairytale. And, to top it off, it just about makes the top 20 of the world's most affordable countries.

Macedonia: la alternativa más barata a los lagos italianos
Barato para ... Lake Lounging, Wining & Dining, Ajvar, Mariscos, Alojamiento
Un impresionante no. 12 en la lista de países más baratos del mundo, Macedonia es un destino europeo menos conocido. Su ciudad capital, Skopje tiene un choque desconcertante de lo nuevo y lo viejo, pero lo más destacado del país es el delicioso Lago Ohrid. Compruébalo, en toda su belleza:
With delicious fish restaurants, cheap private rooms to rent and lots of really lovely glamping spots, the area is one of the cheapest countries in Europe for a holiday. And perfect for travellers young and old on a budget, wanting to kick back and relax. Now that Wizz Air offer direct seasonal flights from the UK to Ohrid it's even easier to enjoy this corner of the world, but the drive through endless forrest from Skopje is also spectacularly sinuous.

Moneda: Denar macedonio
Alojamiento: Durante la temporada alta, las habitaciones rara vez terminan $ 30 y por lo general, este precio incluye el desayuno; las tarifas caen en picado en otras épocas del año

Bonificación de destino europeo barato: Kosovo
Barato para ... Obtener una muestra de la cultura europea del café
A pocas horas de la capital macedonia, Skopje, el país de Kosovo sigue siendo la peor pesadilla de un geógrafo político. Prepárese para los locos niveles de la cultura europea del café, una ciudad abierta y amplia, y MUCHOS homenajes al ex presidente de los EE. UU., Bill Clinton.

OK, so it's not technically one of the cheapest European countries to visit as it isn't a European country. But it does compete in the Eurovision song contest and when you walk around the streets of the capital city, Tbilisi, along rows of EU flags and distinctly European cobbled streets and architecture, you'll see why it's a 'grey area'. Great food, fantastically generous people and superb scenery make Georgia a budget destination well worth considering for your next trip. Not to mention it's just under Ukraine on the Telegraph's cheapest countries in the world list at no. 7!
Archivo de datos de Georgia:
Currency: Georgian Lari Accommodation: For $40 you could find a very nice hotel to stay in Transportation: For a 5 hour train from the black sea beach town of Batumi to Tibilisi will cost around $10 Meals: A price of the famous Georgian street food dish, Khachapuri, will cost around $0.50 Drinks/Entertainment: A delicious bottle of homemade wine at a wine bar might set you back at mere $3 - $5, a bottle of water roughly $0.20 Attractions: There's plenty to do in the countryside for free Getting there by air:Pegasus Airlines and Georgian Airways are just a few of the country's regular low-cost carrier options. You can often find unbelievably cheap flights to the Georgian city of Kutasi with Wizz Air.
