5 Cheaper Destinations for Brazilians in 2026

With local currencies weakened against the real, Turkey, Vietnam, Dominican Republic, Egypt, and Thailand become affordable travel options in 2026, with lower costs for food and tours.

Global inflation and currency swings push Brazilians toward spots with devalued local money. The dollar and euro stay high, yet the real stretches further elsewhere. Thus, budget destinations in Asia, the Caribbean, and Africa emerge as smart picks.

Turkey Tops with Lira Drop

The Turkish lira plunged over 25% in 2025. Now, $1 BRL buys 8.02 liras. In Istanbul, mosques, bazaars, and palaces cost less than in other European capitals.
