Man flies to Budapest for a spa day for under £40

A savvy man has flown to Budapest for a spa day for less than £40.

Callum Ryan, 22, was able to snag a flight from Luton for £17. And when he touched down he went straight to the Szechenyi Baths - where he bought a ticket for just over £22, meaning his trip had a budget of £39.

A spa day in the UK can be significantly more expensive, with the more costly options setting you back as much as £400. Callum, from Milton Keynes, decided to go on the 900-mile journey after enjoying a previous trip to Budapest.

He said: "I have been with my friends before and I had a pleasant time there. So I thought it would be great to go back and experience it again.

"I went early in the morning as the spa can get really busy. I did forget to bring a towel with me - so I had to drip dry but other than that it would have been alright."

Callum, a content creator, flew out to Budapest with Wizz Air on April 17. His ticket to the Szechenyi Baths cost 9400 Hungarian forints - equivalent to £22.12.

Callum stayed in Budapest for a day and flew back on April 18.
