The attractiveness of the city among tourists is partly due to the fact that prices for vacations in Krakow are affordable, especially compared to tourist centers in Western Europe. A vacation for two in Krakow includes the following expenses:
If you're not planning to spend your nights in a hostel (the cheapest accommodation option), you can consider budget hotels based in student dormitories as a more affordable alternative. A double room here will cost you less than 20 EUR, but don't expect special comfort: TVs and landline phones are usually absent, and showers are typically shared between two rooms.
Dining
The cost of food is unlikely to significantly affect the cost of your holiday in Krakow, as inexpensive canteens and eateries can be found even in the city center. You can get a substantial meal in Krakow for only 13-21 PLN per meal.
Transport
Tourists get around the city using buses and trams, and a day pass for both modes of transport costs around 17 PLN. A single ticket for one person is 4 PLN.
In addition, reviews of vacations in Krakow suggest that you can save money on excursions to museums by finding out the days when admission is free. However, even if you pay for some excursions, you can comfortably spend a day in Krakow with 380-430 PLN (for two people).
