Berlin Prices

« Hello, Berlin!!! EEEEK!!! I'm in Berlin now - right here!! And there's this fabulous cafe right behind the airport terminal!! I passed customs in just a minute!! Nobody asked anything!!!!

I have Wi-Fi, which my husband is using here for work, so that's cool. It can be a bit crowded sometimes. A German SIM card costs 20€ per month, so we don’t mind treating ourselves to that.

A metro ticket is valid for only 2 hours, and in our case, it costs around 3.90€!!

I’ve relaxed and unplugged! Thanks to my buddy for the recommendation. My kid is already enjoying his stay and completely forgot about his bed at home while he’s here.

So, tomorrow we continue our photo adventure in Berlin or maybe find something new in the photo album? 😉 »

« Communication Museum.
The Berlin Communication Museum opened in 2000 in a historic building of the former Reichspost. The building itself is quite beautiful and stylish.
Inside, there are enough exhibits to pleasantly spend about 4 hours. Minimum.
Admission is 6 euros; for students, it's 4 euros.
All visitors are greeted by entertaining robots. One hands out tickets, another provides assistance, and the third tells the history of the museum. 😊 »

« No artistic value – just a post about German honesty. The price on the cigarette machine in the bar is 6 euros, while a pack costs 5.20 euros. »

« Buuuggaagaaah! 12 euros per day. Can you believe it? No matter how hard I laugh, there are cyclists in Berlin even during snowfalls, blizzards, and freezing temperatures! How I wish it were the same here. 😊🚴‍♀️❄️ »

« "Let's walk two metro stops so we can buy a short ticket for the remaining three stops for €1.70 instead of a full one for €2.40... No, wait, let's just walk all the way. At least we get to see the city!" »

« How do you feel about European cigarette prices? Starting from $50 for a pack! »

« When planning your trip to Berlin, don’t forget that Sunday is the day for flea markets, which are plentiful throughout the city. For me personally, flea markets are a must-visit on the list of things to do in the city, and Berlin's markets truly deserve your attention.

However, if you’re not planning to buy anything and just want to take photos of the stalls filled with treasures, you might face a slight disappointment: you’ll have to pay a euro for each photo you take. »

« All rooms have balconies with a view of this amazing aquarium. The cost of a room starts at only $135 per night! 😊 »

« The most beautiful market in Berlin - Lots of food, artisans, souvenirs, and performances. Entry is €1. In general, we got the impression that everything in Berlin has a cost. So, we were really surprised by a free and amazing exhibition yesterday, which turned out to be 100,000 times better than the museum in Frankfurt. »

« A childhood dream came true - to see dinosaurs! 🦖 The pictures don’t capture their size, but they were absolutely gigantic. A fantastic museum. It’s very interesting here. Lots of German kids – must be vacation time.
Entrance fee is €5. »

« The Expo in Berlin is pretty good. It's still mostly a jumble of clothes, but there's even more of it now! And it's not just the usual stuff you see everywhere. There are brands from Poland, the Netherlands, Denmark, and so on. I bought some leggings. They cost a lot, of course... definitely not expo prices, far from it))) But there's no selection at all back home. It’s nice to see that interesting brands like Strive for a Dream are emerging. Overall, the market for sportswear is a completely untapped area. Someone should definitely fill that niche! 😊 »

« Biking is super popular in Berlin! Today, we rented bikes for $13 per day and rode all around the city. We managed to visit a lot of places in no time. For comparison, a one-day subway ticket costs $7. »

« The price for renting a bike for the entire day ranges from $11 to $22, with bike paths all across the city – everything feels very civilized! »

« Line to pay 5 euros and get onto the beach. »

« Today we immersed ourselves in the local art museum. By the way, there are plenty of museums in Berlin. And the coolest part is that they’re almost all in one place. But to visit them and really take your time, you’d need a month or even more. Plus, some money. Unlike London, where all the museums are free, the prices here are quite decent. »

« Sweater for €1? I love Berlin's flea markets! »

« My husband and I try to travel on a budget. So here's the breakdown: we spent 4 days and 3 nights in Berlin, staying in an apartment with a friend and his cat. We booked our flights and accommodation ourselves, had breakfast at home, and lunched and dined in cafes and restaurants. My husband calculated that our trip cost us about $535, of which flight tickets were $170 for two round-trip with Air Berlin, food was $110, entertainment and admission fees were $65, accommodation was $110, and transportation in Berlin and Potsdam was $45. Overall, Berlin is incredibly cool, and traveling in general is awesome. I also realized that if you're a positive person, you'll always find something interesting, but if you're a grump, something will always bother you no matter where you are... 😊 »

« Overall, the flea markets in Berlin aren’t great. Prices are quite high, they don't really negotiate much, and sometimes they're even unwilling to drop a euro. If you carefully examine an item, sellers rush over and almost snatch it away from you. However, I did manage to buy something valuable for my mom’s upcoming birthday and some antique lace for my corset :) But keep in mind that flea markets in other cities are generally better! :) »

« KPP Charlie. Actually, I wanted to take a picture with the Soviet border guard :)) but he ran away somewhere. Had to pay 2 euros to an American :)) I also thought about getting a stamp for crossing the border between East and West Berlin, but those not-so-nice people asked for 10 euros for it. »

« Berlin. Stores. There are many small markets here, people don’t go to big supermarkets once a week; instead, they buy fresh items almost every day. The selection is huge, kind of like what you would see in a typical grocery store. You take a cart, insert 1 euro, and when you’re done, you put it back and get your euro back – that’s how they keep things tidy, so carts aren’t just left everywhere. The cash registers don’t have much space, so you quickly toss your items into the cart, step aside, and then organize everything – this helps avoid long lines.

There are also plenty of markets where you can find a little bit of everything: cosmetics, diapers, food, clothing, household goods, medicines – it’s similar to stores that carry various products, but with even more sections. I spent 8 euros on milk, water, juice, cookies, yogurt, bread, muesli, and sugar. At first glance, it might seem a bit pricey, but honestly, 8 euros is a great deal for such a haul. Also, on Sundays, nothing is open; it’s a day off for everyone (except some centers at the train station and a few cafes/restaurants in the city center), so don’t forget to stock up on groceries by Saturday! »

« The main Christmas market in Berlin. Entrance fee - almost $0.60 (1€). »

« Most bikes in Berlin are labeled. In general, the most bicycles you encounter in the city are rentals. A decent bike can be rented for about 9-13 dollars a day. Usually, a deposit of 220-330 dollars is required, but there's a little trick – the rental shops owned by locals often accept documents, like a driver's license or passport, as a deposit instead. »

« This is what a hostel looks like for $18 a night. »

« The second half of the day was spent on a rental bike. 6 euros for 2 hours. For a whole day, it's 12 euros. »

« A 5-day travel pass covering all zones of the city for unlimited rides on all types of public transport costs €35.90. »

« Responding to the question about the TV tower - yes, you can go up. It costs €14 now, and the wait time is about an hour and a half (during which I even managed to visit the wall). The view features the river and the two main town halls. 😊 »

« In the Berlin metro, there are no turnstiles))) you can ride around the city without buying a ticket. But only until you get caught by the inspectors. Apparently, they are really unpleasant. You can never tell if an inspector is riding with you on public transportation. They don't listen to any stories, like "I didn't know." The fine is €40. If you don't pay, they'll remind you about it the next time you apply for a Schengen visa))) »

« The minimum ticket for public transport in Berlin is €2.60. »
