Budget Overview
Here’s a rough breakdown of how your 100€ day could look:
Breakfast & coffee: ~10€
Museum or cultural visit: ~12–15€
Transport (day ticket): ~10€
Lunch: ~15€
Afternoon activity: ~20€
Dinner & drinks: ~30€
Total: ~100€
Morning – Culture & Coffee (~25€)
Start your day like a Berliner: grab a fresh pastry and cappuccino at a local café or bakery (around 5–7€). Then head to Museum Island, home to world-class institutions like the Pergamon Museum or Neues Museum. A single museum ticket costs about 12–14€, or you can get a day pass* if you plan to visit more.
Tip: If you prefer something free but iconic, book a slot to climb the Reichstag Dome, which offers panoramic views of Berlin at no cost.
Midday – Exploring Neighborhoods & Street Food (~25€)
Pick up a day ticket for public transport (around 10€) — it covers unlimited rides on the metro, trams, and buses. Use it to explore two of Berlin’s most vibrant districts:
Kreuzberg: Street art, multicultural vibes, and some of the city’s best food. Grab a classic Döner Kebab (~6€) or Currywurst (~4€) for lunch.
Prenzlauer Berg: Leafy streets, boutique shops, and relaxed cafés. A sit-down lunch here might cost 12–15€, but still well within budget.
Afternoon – Hidden Gems & Experiences (~20€)
After lunch, dive deeper into Berlin’s unique attractions:
Walk along the East Side Gallery, a 1.3 km stretch of the Berlin Wall covered in colorful murals (free).
Relax at Tempelhofer Feld, a former airport turned massive public park — perfect for photos and people-watching.
Or, if you’d like to splurge a little, take a Spree River boat tour* (~15–30€) for a different perspective of the city.
Evening – Dinner & Drinks (~30€)
End your day with dinner and a drink or two in true Berlin style:
For a casual but authentic option, try a local beer garden (hearty German meals and a pint for ~20–25€).
For something trendier, check out Markthalle Neun in Kreuzberg, where you can sample international street food (meals around 10–15€).
Drinks afterward? A cocktail or craft beer in Neukölln or Friedrichshain will set you back about 7–10€.
