Egypt

The country, which still will not be opened for organized tours, the Russians still cannot forget. Egypt has many fans. Even now, some people prefer to travel by regular flights, but do not change their favorite Red Sea resorts.

Such love is understandable. In the cold season, it really was the most budget vacation. Of course, there were complaints about the service, but all the inconveniences were compensated great price, all-inclusive meals and good choice hotels. The language barrier in Egypt is also quite conditional.

You can get to it faster than to other exotic resorts. Even if there is no vacation, you can go on the weekend, for example, on March 8th. If you fly there on March 5, you will get an excellent mini-vacation at sea.

True, March is not the most best time to relax in this region: in the evenings it is noticeably cool, moreover, there are often sandstorms. But the daytime temperature is quite comfortable, you can perfectly swim, sunbathe and enjoy seafood.

Thailand

This country has long been chosen by thousands of Russian tourists.

The main advantage can be called an acceptable cost: now, among the winter destinations, this is perhaps the most budgetary place.

Only India can be called an affordable alternative, but you cannot get there without first obtaining a visa or at least electronic permission. .

However, apart from the price, Thailand has something to surprise and please tourists:

March is a very good time to visit this country. At this time, the tourist season ends and prices begin to fall, but there are no tropical rains yet. The sea in Thailand is always warm, so for families with children it is perfect place. In addition, in March you can get to the Festival kites which runs throughout the country.

Vietnam

The country is in the same price category same as Thailand. Vietnam is preferred by lovers to relax quietly, as well as families with children. Still lovers should fly here aquatic species sports, for example, in the resort of Nha Trang - excellent diving.

Even if there is no suitable group tour for the price, it is quite possible to visit the country on your own.

Arriving in this country, you can visit:

  • Ancient architectural structures.
  • Garden of Ho Chi Minh.
  • The old part of Hanoi.
  • Palace of Independence.
  • Resort Dalat.
  • Restaurants, clubs.

There are a number of downsides:

  1. Unsanitary conditions.
  2. Tours are expensive.
  3. Few Russian speakers.
  4. The local cuisine is very spicy.
  5. Poor road quality.
  6. Long flight.

True, it is difficult to find goods for a pittance in the UAE, but high-quality clothes, equipment, jewelry can be bought at very reasonable prices.

When is it better to go on vacation in the UAE at sea in the video.

Maldives

This country cannot be called a budget holiday option, but it is worth the money spent. Such a turquoise sea and the palm trees leaning over it from the Bounty advertisement cannot be found anywhere else.

But this is a great place for a romantic getaway, and SPA centers at local hotels are considered among the best in the world.

Bali Island (Indonesia)

This exotic place- a real oasis of peace. There is beautiful nature, friendly locals and the endless ocean. Spring is a good time to visit the country, but you need to take into account some of the nuances.

Mexico

This amazing country is now available for Russian tourists. Previously, it was required for the Russians, and it was very difficult to issue it, which was insisted on by a rich and influential neighbor represented by the United States.

Now, for Russians and Ukrainians, it is enough to fill out a simple questionnaire on the consulate website and receive an electronic entry permit online within 24 hours. It is issued for up to 180 days.

It's really worth a trip to Mexico. The beaches there are gorgeous, it is no coincidence that the country like a magnet attracts tens of thousands of tourists from all over the world. The most famous resort is Cancun. Nearby are smaller tourist towns - Tulum and Playa del Carmen.

The water in this place of the Caribbean is an unreal color, and the sand is fine and white as powdered sugar.

The only, but significant minus for a Russian tourist is high prices. The proximity of the United States makes itself felt, so there is nothing to think about living in Cancun on a budget, unlike, say, Southeast Asia. A double room in a three-star hotel will cost about $100, about the same as dinner in a restaurant.

You can save money only if you stay not in the tourist part of the city, but in the one where the Mexicans themselves live. True, you will have to go to the beach by bus or taxi.

If you want a more sophisticated holiday, welcome to the Mexican coast Pacific Ocean. Famous resorts Acapulco and Puerto Vallarta have long been chosen by the bohemia, which treats the motley resort public of Cancun with some disdain. The beaches here are inferior to the Atlantic ones, but it is the atmosphere of this region that attracts many.

Another option for a beach holiday, unknown to Russian tourists, is the Gulf of Mexico. The water in it does not have such an azure color as in Cancun, but it is just as clean, and the sand is no less snow-white. Mexicans themselves rest here, plus a small percentage of informed Europeans.

In the resort town of Progresso, which is located on the bay, there are many inexpensive apartments for rent, and beautiful houses wealthy residents of Mexico. It is best to eat in coastal restaurants "palapas" under thatched roofs. Fresh seafood here is three times cheaper than in Cancun.

Of course, it's quite strange to come to Mexico and not visit anywhere but the beach. No matter how good it is at sea, there is still a very colorful Mexico City, unique Mayan and Aztec pyramids, Indian markets where you can buy souvenirs for a penny ... In general, it’s hard to say what Mexico doesn’t have.
