When we compare the travel costs of actual travelers between Belgrade and Accra, we can see that Belgrade is more expensive. And not only is Accra much less expensive, but it is actually a significantly cheaper destination. Since Belgrade is in Europe and Accra is in Africa, 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 Accra would let you spend less money overall. Or, you could decide to spend more money in Accra 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 Belgrade would naturally cost you much more money, so you would probably want to keep your budget a little tighter in Belgrade than you might in Accra.
