Lonely Planet's Top 10 budget travel destinations

THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER

 

Lonely Planet travel guidebook site has just come out with its new list of top best value 10 budget travel destinations for 2012.

These are places that you may not have considered, but are great to visit and easy on the pocketbook.

Their list:

  • Northeastern USA
  • Japan
  • Tajikistan
  • Porto, Portugal
  • Lesotho
  • Iquitos, Peru
  • San Francisco
  • Ohrid, Macedonia
  • Mekong Delta, Vietnam
  • Merida, Mexico

I wouldn't consider San Francisco to be much of a budget destination, but they're valuing it compared to other top world cities.

What do you think?

While you're browsing Lonely Planet, guides for the independent travelers, take a look at their Thorntree online travel resource, where you can ask questions and read answers about destinations everywhere in the world from expert travelers like yourself.

It's free to sign up and you can ask anything from the electrical voltage in Egypt to traveling with kids in Alaska–both questions I asked not long ago.
