Traveler A

Alright, so let's try to pin down a budget for this trip. What are we thinking, roughly, for accommodation per night?
English
好的，我们来确定一下这次旅行的预算。住宿每晚大概打算花多少钱？

Traveler B
第 2 轮
I was looking at some places, and I think we should aim for around $100-$120 per night, splitting it among us. That should get us something decent without breaking the bank.
English
我看了几家，我觉得我们应该以每晚100-120美元为目标，我们分摊。这样应该能找到不错的住宿，而且不会超支。

That sounds reasonable. And what about food? Are we thinking more sit-down restaurants or trying to save a bit by doing more casual eats and groceries?
English
这个听起来挺合理的。那餐饮呢？我们是打算多去餐厅吃饭，还是通过多吃快餐和买菜来省点钱？

Traveler A
第 4 轮
I'd say a mix. Maybe one nice meal out a day, and then keep the others more budget-friendly. We also need to factor in some money for activities, like tours or entrance fees.
English
我觉得混合着来吧。每天吃一顿好一点的，其他的就省点钱。我们还需要把一些活动费用考虑进去，比如游览或门票。
中文翻译
👨
Traveler B
第 5 轮
Good point. Based on past trips, I'd allocate at least $50-$70 per person per day for food and another $30-$50 for activities, on average. Of course, some days might be more expensive.
English
说得对。根据以往的旅行经验，我平均每天每人至少分配50-70美元用于餐饮，另外30-50美元用于活动。当然，有些日子可能会花更多。

Traveler C
第 6 轮
Okay, so if we add transport -- flights and local travel like public transport or taxis -- what's our grand total looking like? We should also include a buffer for unexpected costs.
English
好的，那么如果我们把交通费——机票和当地交通，比如公共交通或出租车——加进去，我们的总预算是多少？我们还应该留一些备用金，以防不时之需。
中文翻译

Traveler A
第 7 轮
Right, a buffer is essential. For flights, we're probably looking at around $400-$500 each, round trip. And then local transport depends on how much moving around we do. Let's set aside another $100-$150 per person for that.
English
是的，备用金是必不可少的。机票方面，我们每个人来回大概需要400-500美元。然后当地交通取决于我们出行多少。我们再给每人留出100-150美元吧。
中文翻译
👨
Traveler B
第 8 轮
So, roughly, across all categories – accommodation, food, activities, flights, and local transport – plus a 10% contingency, we're probably pushing towards $1500-$1800 per person for a week-long trip.
English
那么，粗略计算一下，包括所有类别——住宿、餐饮、活动、机票和当地交通——再加上10%的备用金，我们一周的旅行每人可能要花1500-1800美元。

That gives us a good ballpark figure to work with. Now we just need to start locking down the actual bookings and track expenses as we go.
English
这个给我们提供了一个很好的大概数字。现在我们只需要开始确定实际预订，并在旅行过程中跟踪开销。
