i guess it just depends how much cash you are comfortable having on you.
You are flashy. I almost planned my 12 days and I see that not counting hotels and air/train tickets inside the country I will not be spending more than 500 bucks (per single person). I just do not see where it would be possible to spend more.

That is not relevant, just interesting note on how very differently people manage to spend money

Thanks for the long list of tips
