2. Tunisia - Wide, bright sandy beaches, Sahara adventure or relaxation in the sun? Many things are possible and affordable here!
3. Poland - An underrated low-budget destination that offers you a lot: sea, beaches, breathtaking mountain landscapes, beautiful lakes and great cities. You can travel easily by car or cheaply by long-distance bus.
4. Bulgaria - How about Varna? Secure your ticket with a low-cost carrier airline and benefit from cheap prices.
5. Croatia - Sightseeing, hiking, parties. In Croatia it's all possible at a fair price.
6. Romania - Similarly underestimated as Poland. Mystical mountains and fabulous castles await you here!
7. Turkey - Not only great for all-inclusive holidays: Turkey has varied landscapes with high mountains, green valleys, beautiful coasts and wide meadows to offer.
8. Malta - Sun, cliffs, young people from all over the world, palm trees and sandstone-coloured facades are waiting for you in Malta...simply paradise.
