Cash per day in Lithuania?

In Vilnius, I often grabbed kibinai pastries for €2 and lunches in small canteens for €6-7. Dinner in Old Town restaurants with beer was around €15. Transport was cheap and easy, €1.50 per ride, though I walked most days. Tipping was usually rounding up the bill, sometimes 10%. On average, I spent €40 daily, and that included small museum tickets and a couple of bar nights. Lithuania isn’t as cheap as the Balkans but still affordable compared to Western Europe. The culture and food make it worth every euro.

Meals: €6-8 in casual places, €15 in restaurants. Transport: €1.50 single ticket, €15 for weekly pass. Tips: 5-10% in restaurants. A safe daily budget is €40-45 for meals, transport, and tips. That figure lets you eat out most days and use public transport without worry. Add more for attractions or nightlife, but €45 is enough for a comfortable long-term stay. Lithuania isn’t ultra-cheap, but compared to Germany or France it’s much easier on the wallet.

I spent about €50 per day in Lithuania, and that gave me comfort. Restaurant meals with a drink cost €12-15, lunches in small cafes €6-8. Public transport was cheap, though I mostly walked in Vilnius and Kaunas. Tips of 10% are appreciated but not heavily enforced. I also spent €5-10 for museum entries or guided walking tours. So €50 daily feels like a safe budget if you want to enjoy eating out, tipping properly, and exploring. It’s still cheaper than Scandinavia, but more polished than Eastern Europe.

Lithuania felt like a nice balance - not Western Europe prices, but not dirt cheap either.
