Prices line by line
The Saxon Garden, Plac Litewski with the Union of Lublin monument, and the State Museum at Majdanek are free to visit.
The bill climbs most on the bed: a 3-star hotel room runs €38.80–42.20 per person, the highest of all ten Polish cities on the site, while a hostel runs €9.13–11.41, the lowest price on the site. Tickets barely touch that gap, since a combined castle ticket is €9.13, the Underground Route €8.44, and the Saxon Garden, Plac Litewski and Majdanek are all free.
The easiest saving is on food: a set lunch at midday is €6.40, cheaper than €6.80–8.65 in the evening, and street food under €2.50–5 covers a quick meal between two stops in the plan.
Getting into town and around it
The train from LUZ airport to Lublin Główny station runs €1.21, 16–25 min. Within the city one transport ride is €1.14, and a 24-hour ticket €3.24, worth it as soon as that day needs more than two rides.
