General Information about Germany


The amount of money needed for a trip to Germany will depend on how long you wish to stay.

If you are living on a budget, you will  need about €175 for a week in a hostel dorm and you will need about €15 a day for food. If you want to do some sightseeing, you will easily spend another €20 a day (depending on where you go).

One litre of unleaded fuel costs about €1.30, a coffee will cost between €2 and €3 and a dorm room in a hostel about €25 per night.

If you have a little bit more spending money and you would rather stay in a hotel, you will be paying about €40 to €50 for a single room and about €60 or higher for a double bedroom. If you want to dine a bit more up market, you will spend about €30 a day for one person.

A very good Internet page for booking journeys by train is www.bahn.de . This is the Homepage of the German rail. You can buy your train ticket online or direct at the desk in the train station in Germany too. You can often find better prices in the internet and some special offers too, for example they often have travel journeys through Germany for 29€. Traveling by Bus in Germany is not very common. The train is the first and most convenient choice, but unfortunately quite expensive. Thats why i would recommend everyone to buy there tickets online rather than at the train station.

Good web pages for affordable hotels are www.hotels.de or www.hotels.com or www.hotelclub.net . The hostel webpages www.hostelworld.com or www.hostelz.com also offer a  range of hotels too, not only hostels.

There is a lot of good shopping in Germany. Specifically we recommend to go shopping in Stuttgart, Munich or Cologne. However other cities are also very attractive for shopping and there’s plenty of sightseeing available across the country.
