The best value-for-money places to visit overseas this year

International travel is showing no signs of slowing down, with one in three - or 35 per cent - of Australians planning an overseas trip in 2024, according to a recent report by Expedia. In fact, 81 per cent of the survey respondents indicated they prioritise "destinations that offer good value for money".

The booking platform has launched the Expedia Holiday Value Guide, with top 10 destinations that not only offer average daily accommodation rates under $300 but a mix of outstanding culture, cuisine and natural beauty, too. No points for guessing that Japan tops the list, with hotels in Osaka averaging $222 per night, followed by Kyoto ($252) and Tokyo ($293). Other hotspots making it to the list include: Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, South Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Turkey and Greece.

Europe may be expensive, but according to the list, it's possible to find great accommodation for about $250 per night, even on heavenly islands such as Santorini, Mykonos and Paros. Shut up and take our money.
