A summer vacation in Europe is a fairly cheap vacation option. Although the cost of living in European countries is relatively high compared to Asia or South America, the affordable cost of tickets makes all the difference.
But which country should you choose, since Europe has many wonderful places with rich culture, magnificent landscapes and comfortable beaches? The European Summer Tourism Index (ESTI), created by the SchengenVisaInfo service, can help you with this. It is published by the Express.
The index ranks European countries based on seven indicators. They include the quality of beaches, popularity among tourists in summer, average air temperature, local cuisine, accommodation costs, and even the level of friendliness of the local population to tourists. As a result, countries were assigned a score, the highest of which is 10.
