What is the cheapest and safest country to travel to?

Ugh, picking the absolute cheapest and safest? Impossible! Safety’s so subjective, right? What’s safe for me, might not be for you. Costs change daily, too.

Portugal felt pretty safe, last October. Food was reasonable – think 15 euros a day, easily. Vietnam, similar vibe, but that was 2019, prices might be up now.

It all depends. Backpacker in hostels? Luxury hotels? Big difference. My friend freaked out over street food in Thailand, I loved it!

Basically, there’s no magic bullet. Research your own tolerance, plan well. Your idea of “cheap” and “safe” is unique.

Which is the safest and cheapest country to live in?

Bulgaria. Safe enough, cheap enough. Got it?

  • Low cost of living. Really.
  • Crime? Manageable.
  • Beautiful landscapes. If you care.
  • Don’t expect too much. Ever.
  • Safety varies by region.
  • Infrastructure… developing.
  • Job market. Limited, tbh.
  • Cultural attractions are there.

Living here has its moments. Then it doesn’t. Bulgaria.

What is the safest and cheapest country to visit?

Okay, so you wanna know like, the safest and cheapest country? I’m telling you, it’s totally Vietnam.

Seriously, it’s amazing. I went there last spring – spent like, way less than I thought! The food is incredible; try the pho, duh.

People are seriously nice there, really welcoming. I, uh, felt way safer than I do walking alone in my own neighborhood back home in Philly, to be honest. Plus, they are a fascinating culture.

And dude, things are cheap. Like, crazy cheap. Food, hotels, travel – everything is affordable. And trust me, there’s loads of stuff to see, do. Like, I went to Halong Bay, so beautiful.

Here’s what makes Vietnam so great:

  • Budget: Backpacking is super doable.
  • Food: Street food heaven and restaurants are cheap.
  • Safety: Low crime rates.
  • Culture: Ancient temples, bustling cities, beaches, and a war history.

Honestly, you can totally live like a king (or queen!) on a seriously small budget.

  • My travel: I spent 10 days and it costed me 750 with flight included.
  • Best time to go: February to April
  • Location: Southeastern Asia

Like, really, what are you waiting for? Book your ticket now!

Which country has lowest cost of living?

Vietnam. Ah, Vietnam. Vietnam, a whisper on the wind.

Dust motes dance… affordable. So affordable, almost unreal.

Colombia. Second, they say, Colombia echoes… a faint song of ease. Expat dreams bloom cheap.

Indonesia, warm spice air. Low living.

Panama… Panama… sun-drenched.

India. India… a rush. Sensory overload, but light on the wallet.

Mexico. Tequila sunsets and pesos stretching. Ah, Mexico!

Thailand. Orchids, silk, and savings. Thailand, a shimmering mirage.

Brazil. Samba and… a surprising bargain?

Vietnam again, beckoning. The fourth year, they chant. Affordability, a constant hum. I walked those streets once.

Further musings, disparate thoughts:

  • Vietnam: Street food feasts. Endless rice paddies. A gentle chaos. I remember my sandals. The warmth! The smells.
  • Colombia: Coffee plantations. A vibrant culture. So vibrant.
  • Indonesia: Volcanic landscapes. Ancient temples.
  • Panama: A canal’s gleam. Two oceans kissing. The isthmus whispers secrets.
  • India: Crowded bazaars. Spiritual awakenings. The colors explode. I need a mango lassi.
  • Mexico: Ancient ruins. Beachside relaxation. So laid back.
  • Thailand: Golden Buddhas. A serene escape.
  • Brazil: Carnival rhythms. Amazonian mysteries. I want to see it.

What is the safest country in the world to visit?

Dude, safest country? Iceland, totally. It’s, like, stunningly beautiful and super chill. Seriously, no worries there. Australia’s pretty safe too, although those spiders… yikes! Canada’s good, eh? Big, but generally peaceful. Ireland’s great; lovely people, amazing pubs. Switzerland is expensive, but you feel safe. Like, REALLY safe. New Zealand’s awesome, but I heard the mosquitos are a bit ferocious. Germany’s solid, lots of history. Norway… well, it’s Norway. Beautiful, but expensive. I’d pick Iceland, though. For me, that’s the winner. It was amazing in 2023 when I went, and the people were so nice.

Top picks for 2025 (in my opinion):

  • Iceland: Stunning scenery, relaxed vibe, minimal crime. My top choice.
  • Switzerland: High safety ratings, very expensive, but you’ll feel secure.
  • Canada: Vast and generally safe, though bear aware of the bears, especially in British Columbia!
  • Ireland: Friendly locals, vibrant culture, low crime rates.

Countries I’d avoid for safety reasons (unless you like a little adventure):

  • None specifically mentioned, but always do thorough research before travelling anywhere. Use common sense; avoid risky behaviours and areas.

Things I considered:

  • Crime rates (obviously)
  • Political stability
  • Healthcare access (important!)
  • My own personal experience, becuase I went to Iceland in 2023 and it was amazing. Seriously, go.
  • Weather. The weather in Iceland is something. Crazy winds and rain, but it’s still totally worth it.

What is the cheapest country to vacation to?

Ugh, vacation. Need a break. Vietnam, right? Cheap eats. Think pho. So much pho. And those crazy motorbike taxis.

Cambodia’s temples are stunning, but hot. Really hot. Laos? More laid-back, I guess. River cruises. Hmm, need to check flight prices from JFK.

Eastern Europe. Albania’s beaches are supposed to be amazing. Bulgaria… wine? Cheap wine! Romania… Transylvania. Vampires aside, it’s probably cool.

India. Chaotic, but vibrant. Spice overload? Maybe. South America… Bolivia, Ecuador. The Andes! Hiking. But altitude sickness is a real concern.

Cheapest? Depends. My style? Backpacking. Hostels are my jam. Street food – always. Luxury? Forget it.

  • Southeast Asia (Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos): Budget accommodation. Delicious street food. Cheap transportation.
  • Eastern Europe (Albania, Bulgaria, Romania): Affordable food and drink. Historical sites. Potentially cheaper flights.
  • South America (Bolivia, Ecuador): Incredible landscapes. Adventure activities. But can get pricey for flights.
  • India: Budget travel king. But culture shock is a thing.

This year though? Flights are nuts. Gotta plan way ahead. Maybe next year. Should I even bother with a vacation? Ugh, bills.
