Bihar is one of the most wallet-friendly destinations in India, allowing travelers to experience deep history without burning a hole in their pockets.

  • Budget Backpackers: If you are traveling on a shoestring, you can easily manage on ₹800 - ₹1,200 ($10-$15) per day. This covers dormitory stays or budget guesthouses, travel via local trains or shared autos, and delicious street food like Litti Chokha for under ₹50 a meal.

  • Mid-Range Comfort: For a more comfortable trip, a budget of ₹2,500 - ₹4,000 ($30-$50) per day is ideal. This allows you to stay in decent 3-star hotels with AC, travel by AC 3-tier trains or hired taxis, and dine at nice family restaurants.

  • Luxury & Heritage: While luxury options are limited compared to metro cities, places like Bodh Gaya and Patna offer 4-star and 5-star hotels ranging from ₹6,000 to ₹12,000+ ($75-$150) per night. Entrance fees for museums and historical sites are very nominal (usually ₹20-₹50 for Indians and ₹200-₹600 for foreigners), making sightseeing incredibly cheap compared to other global heritage sites.
