How much we spent for our 18days Europe trip

Planning a honeymoon in Europe can be overwhelming, but detailed budgeting really helps. For instance, we spent around $14,400 on business class flights using miles, which made the journey comfortable and luxurious while optimizing costs. Accommodation varied from charming Airbnbs to boutique hotels like 54 Margutta and Burgenstock, costing between $520 and $1,600 per stay. Booking these well in advance secured the best rates. Food and dining were major highlights; we indulged in Michelin-star experiences averaging $280 to $400 per person, totaling about $3,100. Cultural experiences, including museums and guided tours, were budgeted at roughly $200 per person, enriching our itinerary. Transportation across cities was managed affordably with car rentals costing $800 for two locations. This allowed us to explore at our pace without added stress. Overall, budgeting nearly $28,640 for two people over 18 days balanced luxury and practicality. Pre-planning reservations and tickets significantly helped us avoid overspending. I’d highly recommend future honeymooners list their priorities—whether flights, dining, or accommodation—and allocate budgets accordingly.
