Annecy

Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes · France

The street and square market is free to enter. Food, drinks and purchases are paid for at individual stalls; the museum suggested for rainy weather has its own admission.
Getting there

Time to allow
Allow around 3 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
Palais de l’Île, 3 Passage de l’Île, houses an indoor museum about the town and the historic building. Museum tickets and hours are separate from the market; the canals remain outdoors.

Vipiteno

Autonomous Province of Bolzano · Trentino-South Tyrol · Italy

Admission and costs
Allow separately for food and craft purchases. The Civic and Multscher Museum has its own admission, included for eligible activeCards; any ascent of the Torre delle Dodici depends on specifically scheduled openings.
Getting there

Time to allow
Allow around 3 hours at the destination, excluding travel.
If it rains
The Civic and Multscher Museum is a separate indoor cultural alternative. Visits follow the museum’s calendar rather than the market calendar; the municipality publishes admission conditions and reductions.
