The 2024 summer vacation could tear a big hole in some vacation budgets.
Nevertheless, many Germans don't want to let their fun be spoiled.
It's no secret that vacations can be very expensive again this year: inflation and the associated increased costs continue to have a tight grip on many regions.
In fact, there are some Germans who don't mind the high prices - and who have even planned a longer than average trip to expensive destinations, as the holiday home booking portal
HomeToGo
reports.
