Methodology

Source.Lodging prices, restaurant tiers, and activity per-person costs come from venue pages we've verified for each destination. Where pricing has changed since last verification, the figures here are the most recent published rate.

Lodging. Cheapest single property that sleeps 8+ guests, midpoint of nightly range × 3 nights, divided by 8. For per-room hotels, headcount-÷-2 rooms.

Dining. Median price tier across the city's dining list, × 4 stops, using $30 / $55 / $95 / $150 per person for $/$$/$$$/$$$$.

Activities. Median per-person activity midpoint × 2.

Excluded. Airfare, ground transport, bar tabs, tipping, last-minute add-ons. Real trips run 15–25% above these numbers once those are added.

Refresh cadence. Reviewed annually; material pricing changes mid-year trigger out-of-cycle updates.
