Site Cons
- Many of the articles on the site are available only to members, meaning that for those not willing to pay, their experience is limited
- Articles can be a little short- at least for non-members- and don’t give a huge amount of content or information, though some are very well done
Other Tips
- Don’t know what you like? There’s a ‘culture questionnaire’ to ascertain just what it is in London that’ll be right for you
- Annual membership owners receive even better deals than monthly ones- but make sure you’ll use the site for that long before you get one!
Overview
For members, Culture Whisper offers a lot of great content, made even better by the fact that it’s personally designed for you. Its varied articles, tailored experiences, and unique discounts can give you your money’s worth of London culture, and keep you occupied forever. For those not willing to splash the cash, however, the website can be a little bare: a few articles are all it has to offer. So if you’re willing to put in the pounds, this might help you rediscover London: otherwise, there are cheaper sites out there that can give you everything you need to find new arty places in the city.
