When we compare the travel costs of actual travelers between Antalya and Jaipur, we can see that Antalya is more expensive. And not only is Jaipur much less expensive, but it is actually a significantly cheaper destination. Since Antalya is in Europe and Jaipur is in Asia, this is one of the main reasons why the costs are so different, as different regions of the world tend to have overall different travel costs. So, traveling to Jaipur would let you spend less money overall. Or, you could decide to spend more money in Jaipur and be able to afford a more luxurious travel style by staying in nicer hotels, eating at more expensive restaurants, taking tours, and experiencing more activities. The same level of travel in Antalya would naturally cost you much more money, so you would probably want to keep your budget a little tighter in Antalya than you might in Jaipur.
