Explore Berlin Without Breaking the Bank!

Contrary to popular belief, you could still travel while adhering to a strict budget. Frugal Traveler columnist, Lucas Peterson, shares his secrets on how he was able to tweak a Berlin itinerary from $1,000 to a very modest $100 per day. Amazingly enough, his itinerary still grants him the freedom to explore this wondrous city at his leisure.

Don’t be fooled, however, into believing that this city is lacking more luxurious options. This eccentric challenge simply proves that there are places to go and things to do, regardless of what your budget may entail.

Are you ready for the real kicker?!  Lucas is in no way deprived of doing all of the things that most tourists like to do for both pleasure and convenience purposes. He is still able to explore popular tourist sites, utilize public transportation, dine out regularly and even drink beer despite his unassuming budget.

To get a little more specific, Lucas still takes the train, visits museums, and enjoys local street food and restaurants, alike. He evens treats himself to goodies that he can bring back home! What is even more fascinating is that Lucas is able to visit various museums in a day, cut lines, and partake in unlimited travel via public transportation for three whole days!
