With the sudden fall in the value of the pound against other currencies in the aftermath of Brexit, many of us are now wondering where we should take our holidays. It won’t come as any surprise that different destinations offer different value for money, an especially important consideration today, given the changing exchange rates. Recently, the holiday site KAYAK did a study that looked at the costs that Brits face when going to various destinations. They found that travelling to some locations offered fantastic value for money, while others, not so much. The goal of the study was to find the average weekly cost of staying in any particular location, including things like accommodation, food and the return flight. Here's what they found. 

Toronto, Canada

Toronto is the financial and commercial centre of Canada, a thriving city with nearly five million inhabitants. It’s home to what was formerly the world’s tallest freestanding structure, the observation deck that looks out over the city. And in the downtown area, there is a giant stadium that plays host to football games. Surprisingly, the price of a week's stay in Canada’s largest city is surprisingly low, coming in at around £1,542. The most expensive item is the return flights, costing more than £653, followed by accommodation in a typical three-star hotel, costing more than £595. 

Barcelona, Spain

Thanks to it’s relative proximity to the UK, Barcelona is a bit cheaper than Toronto for British tourists. Prices for return flights were calculated to be £414 by KAYAK, and accommodation around £560 for the week. Car hire in the city is much cheaper than it is over in Toronto at nearly half the price. If you’re topping up your budget from a company like SwiftMoney to pay for your holiday, then you’re in luck. The total cost of a trip the Spanish city comes it at a mere £1,203. If you cut down on the price of daily meals with packed lunches and walk everywhere, you could get the cost below £1,100.
