More and more Americans have been traveling to Portugal, but booking their trips later due to economic instability. European cities have been a favorite for Americans, but recently more and more US citizens are looking for cheaper alternatives. Countries like Portugal, Albania, Poland, Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania have scenic landscapes and affordable costs that attract tourists. Grocery store products are relatively affordable in comparison to other European countries. Public transport in the big cities is also affordable and has many connections, although there can be delays. On the other hand, housing costs have risen a lot.

But why Portugal? Apart from the cost, it is one of the safest countries in the world. Currently, it’s in the 7th place of the global peace index. Americans also love their beaches, and Portugal has a big coast. For wine lovers, Douro Valley is one of the locations to look for. The Azores also provides spectacular views. The amazing green fauna and the countryside houses create a cozy feeling. Relax in Portugal and enjoy the view.

Rural tourism and ecotourism is also trending right now. So, it’s not a surprise that tourists are choosing a trip to Portugal, where natural parks and rural tourism hotels are widely available. Sustainability is a worry of locals and tourists visiting villages and remote locations. There’s many affordable options of hotels and hostels in Portugal. Also, “Pousadas” are beautifully restored historical buildings that function as hotels.
