From year to year, thousands of tourists, planning their vacation, wonder where to go to rest. Russian travelers are especially attracted by foreign resorts and attractions. Although the summer season is traditionally considered the most popular in the tourism industry, June offers many more savings opportunities compared to July and August. Plus, there's an extensive selection of last minute tours this month, so it's much easier to embark on a spontaneous journey.
Holidays abroad by the sea
To enjoy the sea and the sun, in June you no longer need to fly to the other end of the world - to Asia or the Caribbean. Resorts in Europe and Africa are ready to offer Russian tourists a full range of entertainment. And if in the native Krasnodar Territory, according to many travelers, it is not yet warm enough and unpleasant weather surprises are possible, then in the Mediterranean Sea, by June, a real summer heat is already establishing. In addition, June is the very beginning of the season, so hotels and beaches are not yet crowded, and this circumstance plays an important role for those who want to relax in a relaxed atmosphere - without queues and crowds.
Of course, it is better to decide where to go on vacation abroad in June 2019 in advance. Especially if your choice concerns countries where domestic tourists are expected only with a visa. Most European countries belong to this category: Italy, Greece, Spain, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Croatia, France, Portugal. A pleasant exception is Montenegro, which Russians can visit without a visa for a period not exceeding 30 days. This direction has become extremely popular in recent years. Indeed, in this Balkan country, in addition to resort holidays on the Adriatic Sea, you can make an interesting excursion program with visits to ancient settlements, architectural monuments and reserves.
For spontaneous travel, countries are ideal where Russian tourists can come without a visa. There are quite a few resort destinations: Turkey, Egypt, Israel, Tunisia, Morocco. Therefore, the choice depends only on personal preferences and the amount of the allocated budget.
The Near Abroad also offers Russian tourists a standard resort set of sea, sun, beach and delicious food. For example, in Abkhazia you can relax even without a passport, and this region is also chosen because of the low prices and free communication in Russian. Connoisseurs of gastronomic pleasures should go to sunny Georgia. In addition to swimming in the sea and viewing ancient monuments, the local cuisine and wine will leave an unforgettable experience.
If you want to combine a beach holiday with a visit to well-known attractions, you should go to Italy, Spain or France. For example, from Florence to the sea coast can be reached in two hours, and not far from Barcelona you can find beautiful beaches and the cleanest sea.
Other types of recreation
It is likely that not everyone, going abroad in June, dreams of being closer to the sea. The first month of summer is well suited for bus travel enthusiasts. In all European countries, even in the north, quite comfortable weather is established by this time. Also, a bus tour is a unique opportunity to visit several states in one trip at once and see in them all the best, known, replicated.
An alternative to such a land voyage is a sea cruise. Of course, this type of recreation does not belong to the budget category, but in terms of the level of comfort and surroundings it cannot be compared with a bus tour. In addition, between stops in seaports of different countries, you can enjoy sunbathing and swimming in the pool right on the ship. In addition to traveling in the Mediterranean, there are interesting and more affordable cruises to the Baltic and Scandinavian states.
Alternatively, an excursion trip in June can be easily timed to coincide with visiting major cultural events in a particular country. These can be national holidays, prestigious film screenings, various thematic festivals. For example, at the end of June 2019, a beer festival will be held in Antwerp, Belgium, at which more than 150 varieties of this foamy drink will be presented. You will definitely bring new, unusual impressions from such a trip.
