Many people think that the prices in Goa are lower than in other trendy resorts. But this statement is only true for average living prices. If we consider the average cost of services, then a vacation in Goa will be cheaper than a vacation in Bulgaria or Greece. The cost of many goods, products and services in Goa is much lower compared to Russian prices.
Tourist expenses depend on the following factors:
- resting places,
- hotel categories,
- degree of comfort,
- season,
- number of days.
In Goa, prices do not change as quickly as in Russia. Average price growth is no more than 10% per year. The cost of many services and goods has remained stable for several years. In India, the rupee to ruble exchange rate sometimes changes very significantly, this should be taken into account by the tourist. If you are interested in a budget vacation, then you will need no more than $ 700 for 2 weeks (for 1 person). In this case, you can count on cheap accommodation. If you want a decent room with all the amenities, as well as restaurants, entertainment and souvenirs, then prepare at least $ 1,500 per person.
