Best international trips under ₹50,000 from India

An international trip under ₹50,000 per person — including return flights — is genuinely doable from India if you pick the right destination and travel smart. Here are the best value picks for 2026 and how to keep the total down.

Vietnam — the best value of all

Vietnam has the lowest on-ground costs of the popular Southeast-Asia trio and a simple e-visa. A comfortable 6-day trip lands around ₹42,000–68,000 including flights; go in shoulder season and it slots under ₹50,000. See the Vietnam itinerary.

Thailand — cheap, easy, visa-free

Visa-free entry and famously cheap street food make Thailand a reliable budget win. Pair Bangkok with one island region and watch flight fares for deals. Full plan: Thailand itinerary.

Sri Lanka & Bali — close contenders

• Sri Lanka: short flights, low costs, and beaches-plus-culture; among the easiest sub-₹50k trips.
• Bali: doable in shoulder season (April–June, September) with a visa on arrival — see the Bali itinerary.

How to actually hit the ₹50,000 budget

• Travel in shoulder season — flights and hotels drop sharply.
• Book flights 6–8 weeks out and stay flexible by a day or two.
• Eat local; use an eSIM instead of roaming; use a forex card over airport exchange.
• Pick one region per trip to cut internal transport costs.
