Consumer prices in Europe have risen by about 9%, exceeding experts’ predictions, and showing no signs of a slowdown. Current forecasts indicate that prices will peak toward the end of the year and then fall rapidly in 2023.

Until then, travelers looking for a good deal should check how inflation – not just exchange rates – is affecting prices in each destination on their list.

Travelers can save up to 59 percent on their travel costs or spend an additional 7 percent.

Here is a ranking of how much more or less your dollar is worth in popular European destinations, given the value of the currency and inflation.

According to Bloomberg, the best prices can be currently found in…
