Travel Budget Calculator – Plan Your Trip & Expenses Easily

Stop guessing your travel expenses.
This Travel Budget Calculator (Professional Edition) is a clean, interactive HTML-based budgeting tool designed to help travelers plan, track, and control their trip expenses with clarity and confidence.

Unlike basic spreadsheets, this calculator works like a step-by-step budgeting system that guides you from trip setup to final budget analysis — all inside your browser.

It’s ideal for 30, 60, or 90-day trips, and works perfectly for solo travelers, digital nomads, long stays, or detailed vacation planning.

🔧 How the Calculator Works (Rules & Flow)

1️⃣ Trip Overview Setup

You start by entering:

• Traveler name
• Destination (country & city)
• Preferred currency (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD, CAD)
• Trip duration (30 / 60 / 90 days)
• Your total planned budget

The calculator uses this information as the base reference for all calculations.

2️⃣ Fixed Pre-Trip Costs

You then add one-time expenses such as:

• Flight tickets
• Visa fees
• Travel insurance
• Vaccinations
• Luggage & gear
• Other fixed costs

💡 Rule: All fixed costs are summed automatically and deducted from your total budget before daily spending begins.

3️⃣ Daily Expenses Tracker (Day-by-Day)

For each day of your trip, you can enter:

• Accommodation
• Food
• Transport
• Activities
• Shopping
• Miscellaneous

✔ Each day’s total is calculated instantly
✔ All daily expenses are accumulated automatically
✔ You can scroll horizontally and edit values at any time

This makes it perfect for real-time expense tracking while traveling.
