Avoiding Lines and Crowds in Europe

Deskripsi

Crowds and lines are a genuine nuisance at top European attractions, and too many people spend big chunks of their vacation time fighting mobs of people. When you can, buy tickets online in advance to major sites. Advance tickets are generally timed-entry, meaning you're guaranteed admission on a certain date and time. At popular sights, it can help to arrive early or go late. This is especially true at places popular with cruise excursions and big-bus tour groups. Of course, there are exceptions: When visiting the Acropolis in Athens, after noon might be perfect timing since cruise-ship crowds tend to flock there first thing in the morning. A good guidebook will offer tips on the best times to visit a sight.
