Is DLA card recognised abroad eg Prague?

Hello

My friend is in receipt of DLA for mental health reasons and is going on a short trip to Prague with her husband soon. She was wondering whether she could get her carer in free to museums etc, as it is possible here. In Prague a ZTP Card is required, so I assume she won't be eligible.

Any advice would be gratefully appreciated. :A

    You may not like the sound of this but in my view if they can afford a trip to Prague they can afford entry into different places and should be paying like everyone else does, I understand at home is different but seriously going abroad they should be paying and not looking for concessions.

    In most of continental Europe the idea of concessions for able bodied people would be pretty inconceivable.

    Given that the entry price for most museums is between £1.50 and £3.00, I really wouldn't bother.

    Thank you very much Stevie and MissBiggles I told her that would more than likely be the case. It's fine. :A
