If you've always thought that flying out of India is an expensive business and that you would have to scrimp and save to get an international getaway, we're going to quash your misconceptions. Forget about the swanky vacations to the USA and UK and start packing your bags for a felicitous trip to these countries. These are the cheapest countries to visit from India and will give you serious wanderlust at a reasonable price range. These cheap vacations are no doubt exotic, offering breathtaking scenery along with a host of things to see and do.
* MexicoTo find the best values, visit the historic colonial cities or beach areas. In mid-2008, the peso was at 10 to the dollar. Now it's close to 13. That's a discount of more than 25 percent in a country.
* EgyptDespite having some of the world's best-known monuments, Egypt struggles to fill its abundant hotels. With less-than-wealthy locals far outnumbering the tourists, it's easy to find a bargain meal or a guide or taxi driver. Admission prices for the ancient pyramids and temples are reasonable, generally ranging from $3 to$14.
* Indonesia
This Southeast Asian nation is one of the most diverse and attractive destinations in the world, with a long string of volcanic islands and a range of topography and culture. It could also be the best value on the planet, with cheap hotels going for$5 a night.
* HondurasYou can find fabulous deals on scuba diving packages on Roatan Island. This Caribbean island sits next to the second-longest coral reef in the world, and every hotel seems to offer attractive package plans no matter the season.
* GuatemalaThis is only a shade farther to fly than Mexico, but it is a truly exotic destination. The descendants of the Mayans still dress in traditional clothing in the villages surrounding stunning Lake Atitlan. The Spanish colonial buildings in the city of Antigua are older than anything left standing in our historic city districts.
