Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use bank ATMs in the city centre for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at the airport and main train station as they charge high fees and poor rates.
Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in supermarkets, restaurants, and shops; contactless and mobile pay (Apple Pay, Google Pay) are common; some small cafes and bakeries may still prefer cash.
Rounding up the bill by 5-10% is standard in restaurants; for taxis, round up to the next euro; hotel staff appreciate €1-2 per bag or per night for housekeeping.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →Standing at the counter in a bakery or café: a regular filter coffee or espresso costs around €2.50-3.00.
A takeaway Döner kebab or falafel wrap from a snack shop costs about €5.00-6.50; many bakeries offer lunchtime soup or quiche for under €5.00.
A main course at a simple Italian or Greek restaurant (like spaghetti or gyros plate) typically runs €10-14.
The area around Aachen central station has several kebab and Asian noodle stalls; the weekly market at the cathedral square on Saturdays offers local bratwurst and baked goods.
Aldi, Lidl, and Netto are the cheapest supermarket chains; Rewe is slightly pricier but has a bigger selection.
Primark and H&M near the main shopping street (Krämerstraße) offer budget clothing; the weekly flea market at Pontdriesch occasionally has second-hand clothes.
A single bus/tram ticket within Aachen costs about €2.90; a day pass for the city zone is around €5.50 and covers all buses and trams; from the airport (e.g., Cologne/Bonn), take the regional train (€22-25 one-way) rather than the direct airport shuttle bus (near €40).
Buy a day pass for public transport if making more than two journeys; fill up a water bottle at public fountains (Pfennigbrunnen near the cathedral has drinkable water); avoid eating directly on the main market square — walk a street or two away for better prices.

Top Attractions in Aachen
💡 Bring an empty bottle. The water tastes strongly of egg; locals swear by its health benefits. Best visited at dusk when the building is lit up.
💡 For a dirt-cheap lunch, try the currywurst at Imbiß am Büchel (€3.50). The square usually has free live music on warm Friday evenings from May to September.
💡 Arrive just after morning mass (around 8:30am) to avoid tour groups. The treasury is worth the €5 if you're interested in medieval relics.
💡 Follow the spiral path near the café up to the top—less steep than the main steps. Pair with a visit to the nearby Bismarckturm if you want views.
💡 The ground floor pharmacy is the highlight. Ask at the desk about the guided 20-minute audio tour included in the ticket—it's not obvious.
