The £93 Prague Package: 3-Day Ultra-Budget Trip Review from Sweden

By -

Hello everyone, I'm Yulie! 

This August, while enjoying the brief summer in Sweden, I impulsively booked a 2-night, 3-day trip to Prague after seeing a deal pop up on a Last Minute app! The price for the air-hotel package was truly unbelievable: £93.55 (approximately 1,300 SEK / $115 USD)—sometimes spontaneity is the best part of life!


Accommodation & Location Hack

My hotel was near the Old Town, which made the trip incredibly easy. I was about a 5-minute walk from the Astronomical Clock! Since Prague is such a walkable city, your accommodation location is key.

My trip was essentially: Drinking local beer, and walking everywhere through the city centre and main sights.

Prague Highlights (My Walking Tour)

I covered all the must-see spots on foot:

  • The National Museum

  • Old Town Square & Astronomical Clock

  • Charles Bridge

  •  The Kafka Head (Franz Kafka's rotating statue)
  • The Jewish Museum

Other visually appealing spots I saved from @timeforprague_ on Instagram.


The Beer Strategy (The Swedish Contrast)

The saying that beer is cheaper than water in the Czech Republic was practically true! I rarely go out for a drink in Sweden because of the high cost, so I was thrilled by the Prague beer prices. The Pilsner Urquell draft beer alone was reason enough to travel!


Essential Walking & Budget Tips

  • Footwear: The Old Town is paved with cobblestones, so comfortable walking shoes are mandatory.

  • Water: Buy water in large bottles at a grocery store (Potraviny); prices around tourist attractions are inflated.

  • Dining: Mix local restaurants with pubs for dinner to save money.

Final Verdict

CategoryRatingNotes
Budget Value⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐The last-minute deal made this unbeatable.
Walkability⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐The central location made moving around effortless.
Beer Satisfaction🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟(Exceeded expectations!)

I highly recommend Prague as the perfect destination for anyone looking to travel lightly and affordably.
Location: Prague, Czechia

How to survive in the EU while using apps from Meta

I created my first FB account in 2010 in Madrid while I was studying Spanish. During the break, I went downstairs to get some coffee and to use a computer. Right next to me, a guy asked for my FB account. Sadly(?), I didn't have a FB account at that moment. He was like, "Are you a spy or something?!" I was a 20-year-old girl,.. So I created my first FB account. I think I have deleted my FB account 2 or 3 times since then. IG account as well. For some years, even WhatsApp has been run by Meta Group. I use them even if I don't like them (planning to leave soon). I need some group chat, etc. I turned off all app permissions, but I know they have a higher level of something to collect data anyway. Now I am reading news about the collaboration between Meta Group and Ray-Ban,  Meta’s smart glasses. The news talks about the privacy concern as always. https://techcrunch.com/2026/03/05/meta-sued-over-ai-smartglasses-privacy-concerns-after-workers-reviewed-nudity-sex-and-other-...

Christmas lunch in Sweden (Julbord)

Hi, I am Yulie. Today, I will write about Julbord in Sweden. Julbord, literally meaning Christmas table , is Sweden’s version of the holiday feast. Typically, Herring dishes – pickled in mustard, onion, or dill. Salmon and cold fish – gravlax, smoked salmon, and roe. Cold meats – Christmas ham ( julskinka ), pâtés, and sausages. Warm classics – meatballs ( köttbullar ), small sausages ( prinskorv ), and Janssons frestelse (a creamy potato-and-anchovy casserole). Game and roasts – ribs, roasted meats, or lutfisk (dried cod). Cheese and accompaniments – crispbread, butter, and salads. Desserts – rice pudding, gingerbread cookies, saffron buns, and glögg (mulled wine) This year, I joined a Christmas lunch at the coworking place in Malmö, where I have access. I am working but not working... Well, I got a freelancer contract in April from a consulting firm in Seoul, South Korea, and started working for them with the business set up in Sweden. They are renting a coworking place in Mal...

The Best Budget Hack is 11 Years Old: Why I’m Using a 2015 Diary in 2026

Moving from Madrid to Malmö during the 2020 lockdown was a blur of panic and packing. After a decade of living in Spain, I had to condense my entire life into a few boxes. In the chaos, I made some questionable choices. I threw away practical things I eventually had to rebuy here in Sweden, yet somehow, I found room for a box of "etc."—the random clutter we can't quite let go of. For years, I’ve looked at those boxes in my Malmö apartment and wondered: “Why did I bring this clutter instead of something more valuable?” This morning, I found the answer in the form of a forgotten souvenir from the Prado Museum. A Glitch in the Calendar I bought this diary in Madrid back in 2015. It’s beautiful, barely used, and has sat at the bottom of a box for nearly a decade. I was about to add it to the "to-donate" pile when I realized something incredible: The 2015 calendar aligns perfectly with 2026. Both years start on a Thursday. Leap years have passed, the world has c...
