How much does it cost to go to Europe? This question is asked casually, so the answer is difficult: who will go? Why are you going? How long will this trip take? What ostentation and extravagance? Money makes people who don't feel bad, wage earners who spend half a penny, donkey friends who are going to visit museums, and shopaholics who are holding back "shopping". The size of wallets they need may be very different. Premise: self-help tour to Europe in tourist season, simple accommodation, public transportation, mainly sightseeing. Europe mentioned here is western Europe, excluding eastern Europe. The total cost should be around 15000 yuan. The money is roughly composed of the following parts: air tickets, accommodation fees, catering fees, local transportation fees (trains, long-distance buses, urban transportation, etc.). ), and tickets for scenic spots.

Aviation: At present, China airlines flying to Europe include China International Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, Lufthansa, Air France and Finnair. The round-trip fare (economy class) is about 8000 yuan. Depending on the airline, destination and flight date, the fare may fluctuate between 1000 yuan.

Accommodation: The price of a standard room (two beds) in an economical chain hotel or a cheap small hotel (the level of hardware facilities is equivalent to a domestic three-star hotel) is about 40 euros to 60 euros/day. Rooms of the same standard will be 20%~50% cheaper in Spain, Portugal and Greece, but much more expensive in Switzerland, Northern Europe, Norway and Sweden. If you live in a youth hostel, you usually charge about 15~20 euros for a bed a day.

Diet: Eat local meals, lunches or dinners in places frequented by tourists, about 15 euros for one person. Chinese food is about 10 euro for one person. McDonald's, Pizza Hut and other fast food chains all have various packages of around 5 euros. The above catering prices will increase by 30%~40% in Switzerland and Nordic countries. If you can cook at home and buy raw materials in the supermarket, the price of a meal for one person can be controlled at around 5 euros. Of course, it will be cheaper if you make your own simple food such as sandwiches.

Tap water in Europe can be drunk directly. If you are not at ease, you can go to a large supermarket to buy mineral water. A bottle of water is about 0.5 euros. Coffee lovers should pay attention to the fact that the prices in different places can vary greatly. In Portugal and Spain, a cup of coffee for a few cents or 1 euro may be four or five times more expensive on the left bank of Paris.

Transportation: only in one country, there are not many places to run. Take trains, long-distance buses, subways and other means of transportation in a cost-saving way, and the daily cost is no more than 5 euros. If you want to take a long-distance train or bus in a relatively large country, or cross a country with a large territory, it will cost about two or three hundred euros to use various passes.

If you like to visit art galleries and museums, you should make a budget in advance: on average, you need to prepare 15 euros to visit a museum every day and see other fees. Tickets for the Louvre, the Musee d 'Orsay, which is famous for its impressionist paintings, the Uffizi Art Museum in Florence and the College Art Museum are all around 10 euros. Tickets for Van Gogh Art Museum in Amsterdam 14 Euro. These are the most famous and expensive. Note: Euro 1 converted into RMB 10.
