For real. Dozens of European countries\u00a0are suddenly cheaper to visit because of the weakened euro, especially for American and British travellers whose currencies are doing extremely well (something not applicable to Canadians, sadly, with our\u00a0loonie sinking lower\u00a0everyday).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I may not be American nor British but I know that a lot of you guys are one of the two, which I why I decided strike the wanderlust chord while playing the budget card in this post. Now is not simply as good a time as any to go to Europe; now is the <em>best<\/em> time, with your hard-earned dollars and pounds\u00a0stretching much farther than they probably ever will.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Why Now, Of All Times?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here are a few interesting numbers to help strengthen my case:\u00a0TripAdvisor just released its <a href=\"http:\/\/ir.tripadvisor.com\/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=905118\">TripIndex Europe report<\/a>\u00a0and found that the cost of a one-week trip to Europe has declined by an average of 11%, inside and outside the Eurozone.\u00a0Compared to last summer, travellers\u00a0can expect to pay about 20% less on hotels and 8%\u00a0less on roundtrip airfare. And because the weakened euro has major impacts on local businesses as well,\u00a0virtually every on-the-ground expense (including restaurants, wine, tours and even souvenirs) are\u00a0substantially cheaper too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And while traditionally inexpensive European destinations (like Romania, the Czech Republic, the Balkans, to name a few) remain\u00a0rather attractive options, the whole point of travelling right now is to leverage this historic\u00a0exchange rate and\u00a0visit\u00a0the more\u00a0expensive countries of the Eurozone.<\/p>\n<h2>France<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14191\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_7715.jpg\" alt=\"cheap euro\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_7715.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_7715-610x407.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_7715-930x620.jpg 930w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_7715-225x150.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_7715-1600x1066.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_7715-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_7715-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although Paris will always be one of the most expensive European capitals, it really doesn&#8217;t get cheaper than it does now. But if you want to stretch your dollars even further, try to remain as far as possible from the City of Lights and visit regions that actually represent\u00a0what France is all about\u00a0(remember that most French people think of Paris as a parallel universe). The possibilities for an epic holiday in France are pretty much endless&#8230; and in this case, they don&#8217;t have to cost an arm and a leg.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Enjoy the laid-back seaside vibes at\u00a0Ile-de-R\u00e9<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hike sleeping volcanoes in Auvergne<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tour the cheese factories in Normandy<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/uk.rendezvousenfrance.com\/en\/yourfrenchtour\/rubric\/79137\/master-art-french-living-tarn\">Master the art of French living in Tarn<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Drive the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/alsace-roadtrip-itinerary\/\">wine route in Alsace<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Visit Renaissance castles in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/exploring-the-loire-valley-castles\/\">Loire Valley<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">And, if you must, tour the <a href=\"http:\/\/travelblog.expedia.ca\/top-10-luxury-hotels-paris\/\">luxury hotels of Paris<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Germany &#8211;\u00a0 Half-Timbered Houses Route<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14190\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/P5091672.jpg\" alt=\"cheap euro\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/P5091672.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/P5091672-610x458.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/P5091672-930x698.jpg 930w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/P5091672-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/P5091672-1600x1200.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/P5091672-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/P5091672-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I recently drove the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.germany.travel\/en\/leisure-and-recreation\/scenic-routes\/german-half-timbered-houses-route.html\">Half-Timbered Houses Route in Western Germany<\/a> and it was an incredible experience &#8211; the romantic and photogenic villages were simply idyllic.\u00a0This 3000-kilometer long route showcases two million half-timbered houses in various styles (the highest density in the world), scattered in 100 or so medieval towns from the North\u00a0Sea to Switzerland. I visited\u00a0Stade,\u00a0Nienburg,\u00a0Wernigerode,\u00a0Hann. M\u00fcnden and\u00a0Gelnhausen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Not to mention that I got to drive on those famous German highways that don&#8217;t have speed limits. it was both terrifying and exhilarating (it should be noted that I couldn&#8217;t get past 140 km\/h).<\/p>\n<h2>Italy &#8211; Emilia Romagna<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14188\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/Rome-256_edited-1.jpg\" alt=\"cheap euro\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1222\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I&#8217;ve never been a huge fan of Italy because I always thought there were\u00a0too many tourists &#8211; somehow the idea of being elbowed in the ribs by massive crowds of foreigners in St Marks Square wasn&#8217;t too appealing to me. That was until I was made aware of the non-touristy regions, like Emilia-Romagna, often considered to be Italy&#8217;s greatest gastronomic treasure. While most visitors will head to Venice, Florence, Rome and Naples, those of you interested in a more local experience should beat the crowds and visit Bologna, for example, home to the oldest university in the world and some of the most gourmet traditions like Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, balsamic vinegar,\u00a0prosciutto di Parma, tortellini and much more.<\/p>\n<h2>Portugal<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Iberian peninsula was always the least expensive option as far as the eurozone was concerned, and that continues to be true even with the low exchange rates. Portugal is an often underrated yet extremely worthwhile destination, with a strong naval history (populating Brasil, for example, just that!), fabulous architecture and delicious seafood cuisine &#8211; not to mention a more than appealing climate and stunning and varied landscapes, from forest-covered hilltops to dramatic cliffs along the Atlantic Ocean.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Stroll the colourful streets of Obidos<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Visit wineries in and around Porto<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Relax in Cascais<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Work on your tan in Tavira on the Algarve Coast or in Lagos<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Get lost in Principe Real, one of Lisbon&#8217;s prettiest neighbourhoods<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hop on a river cruise up the Douro<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Spain<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14194\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_3979.jpg\" alt=\"cheap euro\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_3979.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_3979-610x458.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_3979-930x698.jpg 930w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_3979-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_3979-1600x1200.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_3979-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.toeuropeandbeyond.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/IMG_3979-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have such fond memories of Spain.\u00a0Perhaps my mind\u00a0is selective and chose to remember the best, but I can&#8217;t seem to find anything bad to say about this lovely country.
