When we’re planning a vacation, there are many factors that we consider, but nothing influences our travel decisions more than money. Even though prices have generally gone upwards in the last few years, there are countless spots where you can vacation on a budget, no matter the continent. That said, there’s no denying that all those flight tickets, delicious meals, resort fees, and more could add up pretty quickly, even when we were budgeting at every stage. That’s why we love the Easyjet package holidays. Whether you’re after a beach holiday, a second honeymoon, or want to go on an adventure, EasyJet has your back.

Madeira, Portugal
6
With a 1-week package starting from a minimum of GBP 390/person, Madeira is one of the top destinations on EasyJet. This enchanting Portuguese archipelago in the North Atlantic Ocean is closer to North Africa than mainland Europe and is different from any Mediterranean island you might have envisioned. It comprises four beautiful islands, but Madeira and its capital, Funchal, is where all the action takes place.
Those who want to laze around can enjoy the deliciously warm climate throughout the year at one of the many all-inclusive beachside resorts, such as the EasyJet-recommended Pestana Royal All-Inclusive Ocean and Spa Resort and Enotel Lido. Of course, there are many exciting tours and experiences that the island offers, right from historic sites to trekking and water adventures. Some of the most popular on EasyJet are watching cetaceans from catamarans, boarding a cable car from Funchal to Monte, and guided hiking and trekking along the Levada Serra da Água Valley.
Of course, if you want to visit places other than Madeira, EasyJet has you covered there, too, by offering packages for romantic towns like Canico, Canical, and Calheta around the island.

Morocco

Tucked right at the northwestern tip of Africa, Morocco feels like the perfect blend of Europe and Africa. Think exploring verdant valleys and hills, kicking back on stunning white-sand beaches, and sipping tea in ancient medinas. Historic Marrakech and Agadir are the stars of EasyJet’s Morocco holidays and with good reason. There are so many things to do in Marrakech, like wandering through Jemaa El Fna, the vast square, and the medina (old walled town) around it. Some of the top experiences on EasyJet also include visiting the stunning Afgay Desert and the Ourika Valley.
When you want to take a break from all the sightseeing and exploring, head to Agadir, where lolling in the sunshine is one of the top things to do in Agadir. Not only does it have countless restaurants and bars, but it also has a lovely promenade and sandy beaches. And, of course, who can forget Casablanca? What’s great is that some of the most popular day and sightseeing tours that EasyJet offers in Morocco are in Casablanca, including one to Chefchaouen, Morocco’s blue city. The best bit? The hotel and resort offerings are superb, complete with massive blue outdoor pools, amazing amenities, and more.
While packages to Marrakech start from GBP 156/person, ones to Agadir start from GBP 340/person.

Algarve

Sprawled across the south of Portugal, Algarve is one of the most popular EasyJet package holidays when it comes to beach vacations. Some of its most magical coastal cities include Costa De Algarve, Albufeira, Altura, Boliqueime, and more. In fact, most of the hotels and resorts include stunning beachfront ones with lush golf courses, infinity pools, and sweeping views of the North Atlantic Ocean.
The long stretch of sandy, golden beaches aside, this region has a lot more to offer, and you don’t have to go too far. For instance, Albufeira’s Benagil cave and dolphin-watching cruises are very popular. When we talk about exploring inland, travelers love taking traditional tours of the Algarve region’s historical villages and towns. Culture vultures, especially, don’t miss a city tour of the cobbled Silves, Algarve’s first capital, which also includes wine tasting!
So, whether you’re looking for inland escapes, thriving party towns, or beachside sojourns, the Algarve region has ’em all. Packages to Albufeira and Armacao De Pera begin from GBP 286/person and GBP 297/person, respectively.

Bodrum

Bodrum is a Turkish delight of a destination in the truest of senses! What could be better than jaw-dropping dramatic scenery, vibrant nightlife, and pristine beaches? It’s not every day that a holiday destination ticks all the boxes, right? But Bodrum does, and it will have you absolutely hooked, whether it’s the things to do the experiences, or even the stays. Thanks to the clear, azure waters of the Aegean Sea and a curving shoreline, some of the city’s best accommodations face the water. Families will love the Aquasis Deluxe Resort & Spa, an EasyJet favorite, while couples will be charmed by the Charm Beach Hotel.
On the experiences and things to do front, Bodrum is very well-rounded. One of the most popular and obvious activities is a boat trip with lunch, which involves a Mediterranean aquatic adventure. The region is also a top choice for history and culture fans, who can enjoy a tour of the ancient city of Ephesus and the Mausoleum at Halicarnasuus, one of the last three remaining wonders of the ancient world. Plus, there are water sports, lots of food tours, and much more.
Finally, where Bodrum really scores is the relaxation and pampering front, as it has many traditional hammams (Turkish baths), which is an absolute must-do when in Turkey. Packages to Bodrum start from GBP 202/person.

Antalya

Antalya on the southwestern Turkish coast is the ultimate, sun-drenched Mediterranean getaway. Think local delicacies, ancient Greco-Turkish ruins, sweeping white-sand beaches, and a fabulous, fabulous nightlife – that’s the biggest Mediterranean city for you.
You’ll love sauntering through the bougainvillea-lined cobblestone streets of the old town of Kaleici, as well as the waterfront, where you’ll see boats and ships straight out of Pirates of the Caribbean! At the same time, you’ll also love exploring the historic structures, such as temples and amphitheaters, that Antalya has in spades. For instance, one tour will take you to the ancient town of Perge and the Aspendos Roman amphitheater, followed by a refreshing visit to the Kursunlu waterfalls. Plus, there are many day tour options to places such as Pamukkale and its hot springs, Heirapolis, as well as a bot tour of the island of Kekova and the town of Demre, followed by lunch.
Besides tours, lovely resorts along the coast, and hammams, the city is also a hub of many cafés and bars set in lovingly restored Ottoman-era structures. Moreover, they serve some of the most delicious Turkish street food and Anatolian wine.
Clearly, the many things to do in Antalya make it truly a well-rounded Turkish delight with something to charm all kinds of travelers. So, imagine our delight when we found that EasyJet’s Antalya packages begin from GBP 202/person!

It’s no surprise that the gorgeous, mystic, and mesmerizing Egypt sits atop the list of some of EasyJet‘s most popular budget break destinations. This North African country has drawn explorers and adventurers to its shores for millennia, and modern-day travelers are all the more eager to explore it.
Egypt’s star attraction is the 4,500-year-old Great Pyramids of Giza, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. This incredibly beautiful world heritage site sits on the banks of the Nile, right outside the capital of Cairo, in the suburb of Giza. But what’s amazing is that Egypt is more than just tours to the Pyramids, which include a stunning light show at night.
We’re talking about Nile River cruises, which take you to some of ancient Egypt’s most important sites and cities, such as Luxor, Karnak, Edfu, and others. In fact, the river cruise down the Nile is one of the most popular ways to see the country on EasyJet and takes you to some of the most breathtaking places you must see in Egypt.
But that’s not all. Egypt is also home to some of the world’s best diving sites and Red Sea resorts like Hurghada and Sharm El-Sheikh. The crystal clear waters are known for their unparalleled diving credentials across the world, with the golden sands offering warmth throughout the year.
