Varkala: The palm-fringed paradise of South India, Varkala, has found a place among the first 30 of the 100 top ‘Best Value Index’ around the globe, according to a survey by travel search engine Trivago.
According to Trivago, an online travel meta search engine, Varkala enjoys the 28th position among a number of budget travel destinations. Including Varkala, five tourist destinations from India made it to the chart as affordable places to be visited.
The ‘Best Value Index’ is calculated based on the yearly average overnight price of a standard double room combined with the destination’s overall hotel reputation from over 82 million traveller reviews.
The spots selected will be the world’s top in terms of delivering the best value for your money.
Along with Varkala, Munnar also found a place in the chart at the 60th position.
