City breaks might be pricier than in years gone by due to tourist tax hikes in hotspots like Amsterdam and Paris, but don’t worry – there are still plenty of hidden gems that won’t have you emptying your wallet.
Travel experts Wizz Air have scouted out the globe’s most enchanting yet affordable romantic getaways, and Sofia in Bulgaria is topping their list. With its stunning architecture, Sofia is a steal for those seeking a European city break without the hefty price tag.
The Wizz Air team said: “Bulgaria is known to be a cultural melting pot of Greek, Slavic and Turkish cultures, among others. Why not experience these cultures through indulging in a romantic candlelit dinner?

“Filled with beautiful parks, you can follow up by taking a stroll with your loved ones in some of Sofia’s stunning public spaces, like the Borisova Gradina.”
The awe-inspiring St Alexander Nevsky Cathedral reigns as Sofia’s crowning glory on Tripadvisor and is a must-see for any visitor. A traveller named ‘Paul’ shared his awe, saying: “The Alexander Nevsky cathedral is truly impressive. It’s huge from the outside and appears even larger inside.”
For those who fancy a bit of retail therapy or a cheeky cocktail, Vitosha Boulevard is the place to be, reports the Express. And if you’re after an offbeat adventure, the Museum of Illusions offers mind-bending exhibits that seem to defy gravity itself.
According to Numbeo, a meal for two in a restaurant costs just £30 in Sofia, making it the ideal romantic bargain break for British couples.
