Hi T-punkers,

Heading to the old continent in a month, planning out my budget. How much do attractions and museums cost? I they charge an arm and a leg.

Should $20 CDN /day be fine just for attractions?

It really depends where you go and how many you plan on seeing.. For instance, in Paris you can get a Museum Pass, that's good for entry to most museums for a particular range of time (i.e. 5 days), and that ends up saving you $$$ if you intend to see all of them. Also, there are student discounts at most places.. I don't have exact figures, but I recall paying between 8€ and 12€ at most places, although the Casa Battla in Barcelona was über pricey at nearly 20€.
