We'd booked a budget tour for 1000/ea + air for three weeks and we spent an extra ~400 week. The 1000 included all our hotels, transportation, some meals and activities... and the 400/week includes all the stuff we brought home, including some tailored clothes. Yup, it was a deal.

I have always wanted to visit those countries. But is it not true that China is also a place where things would be cheap as well? I mean the Chinese peg the value of their money based on the value of the dollar making them more attractive for outsourcing. Not to get into geo politics here but it seems like that country should also be a good choice for travel if you want to go before the Olympics. Thanks for the great list.
