Travel Budget Calculator

Plan a trip budget: flights, accommodation, food, activities, local transport and parking — total, per day and per person.

How to use

  1. 1Enter the number of travellers and nights.
  2. 2Enter costs per person or per night; add a buffer for the unexpected.

How it's calculated

Total = flights × people + lodging × nights + (food + activities + local transport) × days × people + parking + extras, plus the buffer percentage.

Frequently asked questions

How much buffer should I add?

10–15% covers surprises like taxis, tips and higher-than-expected meals.

How do I estimate daily food costs?

Check a few restaurant menus near where you'll stay, or use budget-traveller guides for the destination.

Should I count parking at the airport?

Yes — for a week's trip, airport parking can cost as much as a night's hotel; compare it with a taxi or train.
