Answer 1

More than it's worth!

Answer 2

I assume you will travel in the high season to give you the highest costs.

Round trip airfare from Des Moine should be about $1100.

Hotel costs have a very wide range of possibilities. I stay in a hotel that costs about $100 a night for a double with breakfast. The George V, a five star luxury hotel costs about $1000 a night for the cheapest room. The average hotel rooms probably runs more like $150-$175 a night.

Food costs also have a very wide range of possibilities. A nice dinner in a sit down restaurant will probably be in the range of $35-50 per person. A gyro (lamb sandwich on pita bread) from a street stand will be $6 and dinner at the world famous La Tour D'Argent will cost $200 per person.
