Europe: 5 Stunning Low-Cost Vacations You Can Take TODAY

France

It’s no secret that Paris can be pretty pricey and frequently appears on the “World’s Most Expensive Cities” lists. But with a bit of smart planning, you can pamper yourself in the city without putting a massive dent in your wallet.

There are many budget-friendly historic mansions you can stay in. And while here, you can dine on gourmet cuisine, stroll along the Seine to take some memorable pics, and be amazed at how affordable this European capital can be for travelers on a budget.

Of course, the city fills up fast during peak seasons. So avoid holidays and weekends in the spring and summertime. But if you dash off to Paris mid-week in May, you’ll be glad you did. Just remember that the further in advance you book your stay, the better the prices.

History lovers should know that the first Sunday of any month is free. And this includes the top sights like the Louvre, Musée d’Orsay, and Centre Pompidou.
