Money-Saving Tips
Eat at traditional pubs outside the historic waterfront area for typically 30-50% lower prices
Use public buses instead of taxis for 70-80% savings on transportation costs
Book accommodation 2-3 months in advance for generally 20-35% better rates
Visit free attractions like public parks and harbor walks instead of paid tours to save $30-60 daily
Shop at local supermarkets for breakfast and lunch supplies rather than dining out for all meals
Look for combination tickets that include multiple attractions for typically 15-25% savings

Common Budget Mistakes to Avoid
Staying only in the historic waterfront district where accommodation is typically 40-60% more expensive
Taking taxis for all transportation instead of using efficient public buses (3-4x more costly)
Eating exclusively in tourist-focused restaurants near major attractions (typically 50-100% markup)
Not checking for attraction combination passes and paying individual entry fees instead
