Yes, North Korea is very expensive. We only stayed there 2 nights after a 2-week train trip (10 nights on trains, others in hotels) from Helsinki.
Good choices those trips of three! Ghana, Togo & Benin was great, so was Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan last Easter: small distances but three different nations with interesting history.
