Hello, so my husband and I are going to Europe for 4 weeks. One of those is spend in a single place, and we are only paying for some things, because its a business trip for my husband. But we decided to stay 3 more weeks a travel a bit.
At first, our budget consisted of 5500 US dlls, not including the flights in and out of europe. But we have gotten into a tight budget because of unexpected things and we have a bit less now. At first I thought we could spend about 1500 in transportation and lodging but as you'll see below, it is more, and we still have some other transportation to count. We are spending about 2000 dlls on transportation and lodging. Here is an example of what we are doing. It's in US dlls.
These are just an example of what we have spend so far, is not the full trip, I still have a few more days in Budapest I have not bought accommodation and transportation for.)
(The accommodation price is for the whole stay, not per night)
Thessaloniki to Naples: 174.62
Naples Airbnb: 124 x 3 nights
Florence Airbnb: 208 x 4 nights
Italy trains: 182
Milan to Paris: 78
Paris Airbnb: 214 x 4 nights
Paris to London: 150
London Airbnb: 300 x 5 nights
All of that is for the both of us. Also, i've been very busy so only lately have I had the time to reserve all of this things, that of course is not as cheap as if I would have done that months ago. But what's done it's done. I have found that some hostels charge almost the same as an Airbnb and in an apartment we would have privacy and our own space, specially because it's 2 people if it was just one, of course an hostel would be cheaper. So we decided for airbnbs. Do you think that is too much? That would leave us with aprox 3500 for both of us for food, activities, attractions etc. Do you think about that budget? Is it too little, do you think we can make it? I am a bit worried, now that we have spend more that I originally though. Although I have never traveled to Europe, so I have nothing to compare it with.
We are traveling in october btw.
Anyways, I'll appreciate any opinions, thoughts, etc.
Thank you !
