The summer days are drawing to a close, and next week autumn will officially be upon us. If that doesn't get you thinking about your next trip away, I don't know what will.

If you're considering jetting off to warmer climes — or are simply in need of an adventure — Post Office Travel Money has done the hard work for you.

Every year the company's Long Haul Holiday Report compares the price of travel items — such as a cup of coffee, a glass of wine, suncream, and a meal for two — in destinations around the world to produce the average cost of a day in each place.

This year, the report crowned a new holiday destination as the cheapest, and saw four new entrants reach the top 10.

Thanks to local price cuts in restaurants, bars, and shops across the board, costs for British holidaymakers are also expected to be lower in 40% of the 30 surveyed places.

So if you're looking for some travel inspiration to remedy the soon-to-be post-summer blues, keep scrolling for 30 of the cheapest holiday destinations outside of Europe, ranked in descending order by the average cost of a day in each place.
