Practical tips for Italy
- Italy uses the Euro (€); while contactless card payments are widely accepted, always keep some coins and small cash notes handy for small cafes and public restrooms.
- High-speed trains like Frecciarossa and Italo make intercity travel effortless, but always remember to validate regional paper train and bus tickets before boarding to avoid steep fines.
- When visiting churches and religious sites like the Vatican or the Duomo, ensure your shoulders and knees are covered to comply with strict dress codes.
Fun fact about Italy
