What's included at each budget level
- Backpacker (~$45/day): hostel dorms, pub food and half-liter beers (as low as $1.80 in a neighborhood pub), trams and metro.
- Mid-range (~$125/day): 3-4 star hotels, restaurant meals, paid sights like Prague Castle plus a ฤeskรฝ Krumlov day trip.
- Luxury (~$280/day): top hotels overlooking Old Town or the Castle district, private guides, fine dining.
How to spend less without a worse trip
- Beer is genuinely cheaper than water in some pubs โ a half-liter of quality Czech lager runs $1.80-3.10 in a neighborhood pub in ลฝiลพkov or Vinohrady, versus $4.40-6.60+ right on the main tourist square. Walk two blocks off the square and your bar tab drops by half.
- The Czech Republic uses the koruna (CZK), not the euro, despite EU membership โ a detail some travelers miss when budgeting. Currency-exchange counters near the main square are a well-known rip-off; use a bank ATM or a proper exchange office instead.
The single biggest lever is almost always accommodation and food choices, not flights โ flying a day earlier or later rarely saves much, but swapping one hotel category or eating like a local for half your meals usually saves more than any flight-timing trick.
