Free attractions in Europe

Welcome to my blog, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I discovered this site recently, Free Attractions in Europe. I had a quick look at the site and here are a couple of examples. In Germany New Berliner Tours offer free walking and cycling tours of the city.  If you have some experience roller skating you can join the Friday evening three hour tour Pari Roller Tour.  There is also a Sunday afternoon session for beginners.

Don’t forget that entry to state run museums in the UK is free of charge.  When I was young museums in the UK were free to visit.  However political pressure in the 1980s lead to the introduction of entry fees at many museums. I’m glad to say that in 2001 free entry was re-instated. I think this is a great policy as it encourages people to visit museums initially and then to make repeat visits.  Do admission charges to museums put you off visiting or do you think that visitors should pay for entry rather than the taxpayer subsidising the museums?
