Zagreb, Croatia

Zagreb is not a name you’ll often find on lists like these, which is a shame because it deserves more recognition as one of the best travel destinations for any budding globe-trotter. It’s a city steeped in history. There’s something to be discovered around every corner, from stunning hand-painted murals to impeccably preserved historical buildings. Even without the museums and local tours (which are also worth investing in), you’ll come away with an incredible appreciation for this city’s history.

Besides that, you can also expect cheap accommodation to suit your wallet. The multitude of restaurants and cafes lets you sample some of the local cuisine no matter the size of your budget. For fans of Eastern European history, this one’s a no-brainer.
