About FareZuno & how we estimate costs

FareZuno helps you see what a trip will cost before you book, so you can travel more and spend fairly.

How the estimates work

For each city we keep typical daily prices for three travel styles, in US dollars:

• Backpacker: Hostel dorm bed, street food & markets, public transport, mostly free sights.
• Mid-range: 3-star hotel or private room (shared by 2), casual restaurants, transit + some taxis, a paid sight a day.
• Comfort: 4–5-star hotel (shared by 2), good restaurants, taxis, tours & premium sights.

Prices are typical values gathered from public booking-site listings, local price reports and travel cost surveys, and are checked periodically (last checked 2026-10-11). Your real costs depend on the season, the neighbourhood and your own habits, so we suggest adding a 10% buffer.

Flights are not included because they depend on where you start.

Exchange rates

Local-currency amounts use daily mid-market reference rates from the Frankfurter open API. Banks and cards add their own margins.

Booking links

Buttons to Booking.com, flight search and tour sites are there for convenience. Some may become affiliate links, which pay us a small commission at no extra cost to you. They never change our estimates.
