The Allure of Underrated Destinations
Traveling to lesser-known destinations often means uncovering pristine landscapes and vibrant cultures untouched by mass tourism. For instance, the Azores, an archipelago in Portugal, offers stunning volcanic landscapes and lush greenery at a more affordable rate compared to other European destinations. Flights to the Azores can be surprisingly affordable, with prices often lower than $400 round trip from major U.S. cities1.
Similarly, Albania is emerging as a must-visit destination in Europe, boasting beautiful beaches along the Albanian Riviera and historic sites like the ancient city of Butrint, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The cost of living is notably lower compared to its Mediterranean neighbors, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious travelers2.
