Cultural Tourist

How to Plan Your Trips

  • Make a must-see list, but leave some room for spontaneity – sometimes the coolest exhibitions are ones you discover once you’re there!
  • Check the cultural events calendar – maybe you’ll catch an awesome concert or festival?
  • Buy tickets online in advance – lines for top museums can eat up half your day
  • Choose a hotel near the old town or cultural district – you’ll save time on commuting
  • Download apps with audio guides – they’re often better than the ones you rent on-site
  • Consider hiring a local guide – nobody will tell you about a city better than someone who was born there
  • Plan your route thematically – like dedicating one day to Renaissance art, another to local crafts
  • Don’t forget coffee and cake breaks – art-watching is hard work, you deserve a reward!
