Budgeting - How much money do you need in Bucharest?

One average day in Bucharest would require this kind of budget:

- first you must check the room rates in Bucharest hotels

- wake up in the early morn', have croissant and coffee in a nice coffee shop - 5 to 12 lei

- catch a cab downtown (5-7 lei) on your way to an artshow in a museum (5-15 lei)

- buy a pack of cigs (5 lei), grab a bottle of coke, the natural, E-free product (2,5 lei) and a hamburger (2,5 lei) from McD (you don't really wanna do that, do you?)

- lost already? Find a bookshop, buy a map of Bucharest (13 lei), get back on track.

- lunch time: have a beer (4-9 lei) and some light lunch (7-30 lei)

- buy souvenirs: photo album (25-150 lei), a bottle of wine (15-40 lei)

- hop on a bus (1,1 lei) and go see a movie (7-10 lei) or a play (9-15 lei)

- if you're hiring a car (24-40 eur/day), you should know that gas is 3,6 lei/l

Lowest budget for a comfortable day around Bucharest: 100 lei (30 eur)
