Florence is the most walkable of the top 10 cities, with the average time between the city’s top five attractions just 10 minutes. On the flipside is Lisbon, with the 112-minute amble between the main attractions – and calf-achingly steep hills – warranting a refuel or five between the sights, if you ask us. That said, where there’s a will, there’s a way (AKA Uber is famously very affordable).
If affordability is the primary deciding factor, Amsterdam tops the list for free cultural attractions with 392. However, it’s the third-most expensive option for accommodation, at an average of $135 a night for a three-star hotel room.
The Estonian capital wins on safety, with a weighty safety index score of 78.14, while also claiming the title of cheapest spot thanks to the average three-star bolthole costing $65 a night.
