Budget Tips

1. Drink local wine/beer: Cisk (beer) and local wine are cheaper than imported stuff.
2. Eat street food: Pastizzi and Ftira are dirt cheap and filling.
3. Get the Heritage Pass: If you plan to visit 3+ museums, it saves you money.

Tap water caveat: Bottled water adds up. Buy huge 6-packs from supermarkets (Lidl/Welbee's) instead of small bottles at tourist kiosks.
