Four Reasons Why People Go Backpacking in Europe

31 , December 1969

One of the most fun and most memorable traveling experiences is backpacking in Europe. Europe is just one of the perfect places to go backpacking. The backpacking traveler can definitely find a lot of options available in Europe that are not available in other continents. This is why, there is a significant fraction of the tourists and visitors that travel to Europe are composed of backpackers of all ages. Backpackers from all over the world troop to Europe and travel around the continent for months at a time. Why? Here's why:

Cheap transportation - one of the main features of backpacking is the fact that it is one of traveling styles that offers the best value. You can be able to visit a lot of places in Europe by backpacking without spending a lot of money. This is why most backpackers that troop to Europe are composed of students and young professionals. With backpacking, they can be able to go to more places and make a lot of traveling memories and experiences without having to spend a lot of money. One of the main reasons why backpacking is a cheap way to tour Europe is the fact that Europe is interconnected by trains and buses. This means you do not have to spend a lot of money in airfare to move around (e.g. a one-way trip from London to Paris via Eurostar Trains is as low as £39).

Cheap lodging - aside from cheap transportation, backpackers are also able to stay in many budget and backpacking hotels. These kinds of cheap hotels can be found all over Europe. You can be able to find good lodging that is both comfortable and affordable in most major cities around Europe. Aside from this, you can also join a backpacking forum or lodging website. This is a place wherein backpackers from all over the world offer guest rooms to other backpackers for free or for a small price. If you are in Paris, you can check out the Plug-Inn Hostel (for $34 USD per night). I'd also recommend City Backpackers when you're in Stockholm as it also costs $34 USD per night.

Safe environment - because most of the countries in Europe are well developed, you can expect a good police system that ensures everyone is safe. In fact backpackers can sleep in train stations to await their next train without worrying about getting mugged. This is one of the main appeal of backpacking in Europe.

Tourist spots - if you go backpacking in Europe, you will definitely be able to visit a lot of awesome tourist spots all over the continent. Think of the places you get to visit. Paris, London, Rome and other European cities -- the Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, Buckingham Palace, Trevi Fountain and many more ---how awesome is that?
