It is no secret that holidays are getting more and more expensive as the years go on and booking one requires some serious research and budgeting.
But sometimes we can’t help ourselves and feel the need to fork out on those expensive trips, especially the ones that have been sitting on our bucket list for years.
It is also necessary to get that well-deserved break from time to time so if you are going to splash the cash on a getaway, the best thing to do is have some sort of an idea of how much you are likely to spend to help plan accordingly.
Fortunately, Go Compare.com has shared information about how much UK holidaymakers are likely to spend when visiting destinations.
Not only that, but their review revealed the most expensive country for Brits to visit and the number isn’t light at all.
Go Compare analysed Brits average spending across 30 different countries to see where the most is spend and based on their research, the gorgeous island country of Iceland is the most expensive destination.
UK travellers are estimated to spend over £200 a night Iceland, meaning a lovely two-week holiday could cost a hefty £2,890 and that’s per person.
There is no disputing that Iceland is an absolutely stunning destination and so some might argue the £2800-plus price point is most definitely.
