I so happened to be staying at this hostel called Maverick Lodge, which is super close to the Karavan Street Food in May while you were there last year. Watching this video certainly brings back some of my fondest memories of this beautiful city.

MsHonkie how much does it cost per month to live in that hostel , I mean sharing with two others

Well, you can also have daily restaurant menu for very cheap. Soup and second meal for about 850 ft. In some restaurants it's an option only in lunch time but that's a full, warm lunch with two meals, varies each day and you can taste traditional Hungarian cuisine, so totally worth it.

@@emilijuspoviliunas6009 Yes, it is very touristy, but it is a capital of the country, and there are areas full of tourist and you get "touristy prices" and often "touristy" authenticity, quality as they don't expect to see you again. If you would go to a less touristy place, it would cost you some effort in finding the place, at least some minutes of walking, if you would consider a place visited by people who work in the area or even by local students. If you would want to check "best bang for buck" places loved by locals, you would spend more time, use some transit tickets... And your vacation time is limited, it is expensive and the time you spend on stuff costs "a small fraction of travelling costs".

Your channel is very underrated, I hope you will get more views and I hope you have/had a great time here! :D Oh yeag and almost forgot! Those beers were really expensive! You can usually have 0.5 liter for 100-150 forint if you buy it in a supermarket! So yeah, budget! :D

Budapest is definitely much cheaper than most European cities like Vienna, Frankfurt, Madrid and etc. Was in Budapest in Sept 2018 and spent another 1 month in Budapest in Dec 18 to Jan 19. Love the city and the vibes. I had way too much beef lagoush. Will be back there again this year :)

I disagree. budapeast is cheap. I can eat really good food at a restaurant for just 10 euros. in Austria, for that quality, you can pay up to 25 euros.

Did your day total expense include the accommodation? As I'd be likely to have that paid first off and not include it in the calculation of how much I have to bring for day to day. If you did include it then I'd say the total would be £18 instead? ( £25 - £7 )

Was that the panini place at Oktogon? I was going to try it last time but it was a lot more expensive than other nearby options,looked nice though.I think I sometimes get too fixated on getting the very cheapest,at the end of the day you're on holiday and should treat yourself. I wouldn't think twice about spending the same money at home but Bp is so cheap I get terribly mean :) I hate to pay 2 euros for a beer when I can get it somewhere else for 1 euro,kinda fixate on that rather than the fact that 2 euros is really cheap anyway.I'm going back again in 6 weeks, I'll try to free my mind and purse-strings a bit more.Nice vid and nice to see some places I know.

@JasonBillamTravel

Yeah that's the one. If you're on holiday for only a few days, then I wouldn't worry too much about prices, as Budapest is typically cheap compared to western Europe/US etc. If you're backpacking on a budget and aiming to travel to multiple places in the long term like me, then I would splurge only occasionally, and be mindful of your own budget. Happy travels!
