Iceland is the best value country for British travellers, according to a new report from the British Post Office. The company based its decision on the fact that the Icelandic currency; along with the Jamaican, Hungarian and Polish currencies; has lost ground against the pound while most others are becoming more expensive.
Visir.is reports the Post Office as saying:
“Adventure thirsty travellers can use the 24-hour daylight if they travel to Iceland this summer. The local currency is 40 percent better value this year than last. With the collapse of the krona, the Land of the Midnight Sun has taken top spot on the Post Office Travel Services’ cheap destinations list.”
A Post Office spokesman encouraged people to visit the four countries – but especially Iceland, which has always been so expensive before.
Thanks, British Post Office.
And for Icelandic Post Office it would be a good idea to offer 100 pounds discount for every British tourist visiting Iceland.
Why? I’ll tell the rest of the story after the tourist season :-)
Well now isn’t that news for us. I can’t wait to go on vacations to Iceland. And I totally agree with Alexander E. We do deserve a package or discount of some sort. :)
