India

  1. India :

Cheap food and travel, as well as a well-trodden backpacker route, make India a cheap and eye-opening travel location. Travelling on a budget here means reverting to some seriously back-to-basics living, but the payoff of incredible food and a country rich with culture, history and stunning architecture is well worth it.

Nepal

  1. Nepal :

In Nepal, you’ll have a wonderful experience if you’re looking for classic Asian culture and tropical nature.

Head to Bhaktapur in the Kathmandu Valley, and don’t miss the sacred Hindu and Buddhist temples, like famous Pashupatinath, Budhanilkantha, and Manakamana. For many backpackers, even one month is not enough to soak in the peaceful aura.

Indonesia

  1. Indonesia :

Indonesia enables you to enjoy mysterious rainforests, silver beaches and crystal-clear green seas without swiping your credit card too frequently.

It is only 400km away from Bali, but you will be just as satisfied with snorkeling, surfing, fishing and doing Yoga at the beautiful beaches. There’s incredible wildlife, such as the Komodo dragon and the slow loris. And the megacity of Jakarta is eye-opening. It’s all available on a budget.

Sri Lanka

  1. Sri Lanka :

Colombo, the commercial capital of Sri Lana, is the most popular city to visit here. Sri Jayewardenepura Kotte is actually the capital of the country and worth a visit to as well.

Nicaragua

  1. Nicaragua :

The Big and Small Corn islands are beautiful, as is Lake Managua. And when it comes down to it, the country is probably half the price of neighboring Costa Rica.
