>>2867579>4k USD ~ 5k USD for 2 weeks.Might as well stay home and use your fund to invest. That's not enough to do anything.
>>2867581that's plenty in bulgaria
All of them?
>>2867583A few, or whatever. I appreciate your time.I was considering Slovakia personally. No clue if it's good.
>>2867585Bratislava is underrated gem and it's pretty cheap or your budget. You can do Vienna and a day trip to Bratislava but Vienna is very "diverse". Prague is sadly ruined by overtourism now. For your budget, I would recommend Slovenia, Trieste, Zagreb. You can also try Balatonfured if you like small towns or Budapest if you like big cities. I can also recommend the Baltics if you don't mind flying. Riga and Talinn are pretty based.All the large cities west of the Balkans are unfortunately enriched. But there are still great small town resorts worth visiting. >Hotel KrallerhofI stayed at this resort in Leogang last time and it was pretty good. Bad Gastein is also a nice alternative. Russia is actually also a gem if you are willing to take the risk
>>2867579>Best safe countries in Europethey're literally almost all perfectly safe (bare except like parts of 5 big cities)>Want to travel to Europe w/ my girlfrenand what do you want to do?historic stuff? if yes which period are you interested in or just monument / UNESCO?or outdoorsy stuff?there's literally everythingfrom you pic I suppose maybe hiking?or food travel?or nature?a little more details...>>2867581>That's not enough to do anything.that is absolutely enough for 2weekswith ~300€/day for 2people you can comfortably stay even in the most expensive cities and regions (if avoiding peak season)if flights have to be subtractedthat's still enough for shoestring / budget travel in the expensive regions and comfortable everywhere else
>>2867579>I dont want to be surrounded by cultural enrichment???
>>2867579You've described literally any post-commie country that uses latin alphabet. With sole exception for Berlin (which is cultrually enriched as fuck) any city, town and village will provide you with safety amongst white people at relatively fair price. However even here 4-5k for 2 people for 2 weeks sounds more like a challenge than vacation.
>>2867621>However even here 4-5k for 2 people for 2 weeks sounds more like a challenge than vacation>uses pic of krakowwhat wrong with /trv/ recently (and this thread specifically)are you a fucking braindead nepo retard that can't travel without daddy's CC?realistic prices for 2 people for Krakow>70€/n for hotel in city center>7-10€ per restaurant meal per person>3-5€ for cheaper food like zapiekanki>~3€ for a beer>5€/d per Person for public transport day passif you include entries and transport between cities every few daysthat's 150-180€/day AT MOST FOR 2 PERSONSnot even half of OPs budgetif you stay at a hostels (even getting a private room) and don't eat in sit down restaurantsyou could easily go below <100€/d without breaking a sweat
>>2867636>Just stay in single city>Eat the cheapest food + one restaurant meal once a day>Drink one beer per day>Tap water is drinkable, right?>Buy daily pass because since you stay in single city for 2 weeks, you might want to see suburbs of something>Why would you want to spend money on that museum, when you just met some new friends here in hostel?>IT'S SO EASY>Aw fuck, you went to another city!>No sweat, just don't eat or drink for that day and you'll stay in budgetOnce you start moving around 1000$ per week per person starts feeling too close for comfort, anywhere in Europe. Post commie countries offer best value, but times when someone with 100$ came to live like a king for a day are long gone.
>>2867644>Tap water is drinkable, rightpolish tap water is perfectly fineit is almost anywhere in Europe>Just stay in single cityi included transit between cities in the 150-180€/dbut a train will unlikely be more than 50€ per Person>Eat the cheapest food + one restaurant meal once a dayaren't you able to add simple numbers?4x restaurant meal is ~40€ in most of eastern Europe>spend money on that museumagain>entries and transportationencompasses ENTRIESand museums are rarely more than 10-15€, with exceptions for really famous ones, usually cheaper>Once you start moving around 1000$ per week per person starts feeling too close for comfortwhere would you even spend that kind of money??a luxury rental car? (Which would be incredible impractical if you stay in the city centers)some true 5* hotel? some organized """experiences"""? fine dining?Please enlighten mebecause to me, it just sounds like you got "scammed" with overpriced stuff>but times when someone with 100$ came to live like a king for a day are long gonei traveled to Innsbruck, Turin, Brest, Karlsbad (region), Southern Carpathians (hiking), Bucharest and Triest in the last 12months aloneand not even once spend >200€/day between me and my wifeand this includes decent (4*) hotel or apartment, train / airplane tickets, dining in restaurant every day, not skipping any attraction etc.I don't even look at prices after arriving and I still spend more...
>>2867654Single train ticket from Prague to Cracow will eat half of daily budget of 150USD. Comfy stays in center of Prague or Cracow will start at 100USD. When you add food, drinks, local attractions and all that "minor" stuff, you'll be stretching out too far for comfort.Yes it's doable but from the start you're going for 2 front war: one with budget and one with pleasing your girlfriend that you just took for having good time at European trip. Single drink for her in Cracow's center will costs you 10$.It's different scenario than when you took your wife for budget trip some time ago.
>>2867636>7-10€ per restaurant meal per person>~3€ for a beerGod I wish. I want off inflation's wild ride.
Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland are all low on brown people. There's gypsies still but they'll just pickpocket rather than get violent.
>>2867658Regiojet is that much? Why not just get a flixbus?
>>2867658What are you talking about? You can get a ticket for 15 euro
>>2867850>wasting 12 hours of your life because you can't afford a few hundred eurosThe absolute state of europoor

If you’re into nature and history, Scottish Highlands and Islands, though be prepared for wet and windy weather.
>>2867579that is a pretty high budget. I would recommend doing the Low Countries and down the Rhineland as that area is pretty chill. Rent some bikes and do some long distance pedalling through the countryside, see some random castles, wineries, canals, and art.
>>2867861warming up after a day of hiking with blankets, whiskey, and cups of strong tea... did this with my GF and can recommend.
>>2867894It’s not for everyone, stark landscape with more sheep than people, but I had a great time there years ago. Hiked from Glasgow suburbs to Ft. William, climbed Ben Nevis, hitchhiked all over and island hopped in the Hebrides and Orkneys. I had a small tent which was miserable in the weather at times, stayed in hiker’s huts, then when I was too cold and wet I’d shell out for a cheap hotel or B & B. Food is ok and I ate a lot of mutton, haggis and great fish and chips. Ferries, trains and buses were probably my biggest expense. Scottish cities are cool but I love the wild parts of Scotland.
>>2867861>>2867893>>2867894>>2867902Just go to Bullgaria
>>2867943Is Bulgaria safe? The US State Dep advises against travelling there in general
>>2867988Does it really? Why?
>>2867579If you were alone I would say 4k is kingly even with flights included. Stay in hostels, get rail passes, carryon backpack only, don't be a retard who tips, etc etc. GF though makes this nigh impossible. You're flat doubling the costs of almost everything and that's making the ridiculous assumption that she's okay with light travel. Realistically it's a 150-200% increase because now you're staying in hotels, getting fancy food, getting scammed more. Your only real options are some shit in the balkans or baltics. Bulgaria as mentioned, Montenegro, maybe Hungary if you tighten your belts.
>>2867988Of course they do. They don't want Americans to see what life is really like in a safe country. Most people wouldn't come back.
>>28676607 euros gets you a fucking big ass kebab roll, not a restaurant meal. Yeah it has like 1200 calories and fills you right up, but nobody wants to travel Europe and eat kebab.>>2867850Hopping around from one town to another by train as part of your daytrip routine adds up faster than intercity trips in some hard seat third class compartment crammed full of people.
>>2867579All the American couples I know of who traveled to Europe (Italy, Ireland, Scotland, Slovenia, Croatia were some of their destinations) rented a car. This gives you freedom to explore and stay away from the diversity. No holding your breath and looking at the ground like a good little Eurocuck as you walk past a gang of rowdies outside the train station entrance. It also makes travel so much more comfortable on rainy days. And yes, rental fees plus plenty of petrol will add a hefty amount to your trip costs. Cities are overrated unless you're an architecture fag...and even then there are so many beautiful buildings in the rural villages.>>2867850Waiting for a 1430 train sucks. Car is better
>>2867582Bulgaria doesn't need cultural enrichment because they are already trash
If the primary objective is to avoid brown people, Poland is a good choice. You could fly into Gdansk and out of Krakow and just visit a few cities along the way by car or train. Croatia and Slovenia would also be great choices. Tallin and Helsinki would work too.
>>2868503>Tallinn and HelsinkiI was in Tallinn from 2012-2014 and there was inly one black guy and he washed dishes for a hamburger joint. Now from what I hear from my people there, it has been invaded by indians and other 3rd worlders. Helsinki has always had a large community of somalis. I don't know how bad it is there in 2026 though. I would bet on Poland, Hungary, Lithuania, and Slovakia for places to avoid brown people.
