In the early 2010s, Anapa became the leader in Russia in terms of the number of tourists, and this is no accident.

The cost of the cheapest tour package is 24-25 thousand rubles.
1. Crimea
In many respects, the rest in Crimea remained the same as it was dozens of years ago, even in Soviet times: all the same health resorts, children's camps on the Black Sea, pebble beaches and sellers of hot corn and pies. All this makes up the unchanging flavor of this place, and, most surprisingly, this conservatism has not yet become boring to anyone. But what Crimea is most famous for is, of course, its nature. The peninsula is replete with a huge number of caves, mountains, rivers and lakes. This year, prices for holidays in the Crimea fell by a third - about 20-22 thousand rubles is the cheapest option for relaxing in this picturesque place in the velvet season.
