European cities where you get the most bang for your buck this year
According to new research, there are many cheaper European destinations to visit this year than last year.
The Post’s 2019 urban cost barometer revealed the European cities where the pound will go the furthest this year.

The report looked at the prices of 12 items Britons typically buy on vacation to see where they were cheapest.
This includes drinks, evening meals, two nights at the hotel, transportation costs and tourist activities.
Vilnius in Lithuania was the cheapest with all 12 items for just £ 147.35.
Just behind Belgrade in Serbia at just £ 151.57 and Warsaw in Poland at £ 160.
Other cheap cities included Istanbul, Turkey (£ 167) due to the struggling Turkish Lira; Bucharest, Romania (£ 168) and Porto, Portugal (£ 173).

The report also revealed the destinations where prices fell from last year – in part thanks to a stronger pound.
Prices in Venice are down 23.3% compared to last year, while Amsterdam is down 17%.
However, cities like Krakow and Lille have increased their prices compared to last year, while the five capitals of Scandinavia remain among the most expensive.
