Destination-specific money tips
- •While most places accept credit cards, always carry some cash for smaller shops, markets, or very local trattorias.
- •ATMs (Bancomat) are widely available and usually offer the best exchange rates for cash withdrawals. Avoid standalone ATMs in tourist hotspots if possible, as they may have higher fees.
- •Tipping is not a significant part of Italian culture. A 'coperto' (cover charge) is common in restaurants, and rounding up the bill for exceptional service is appreciated but not expected.
- •Verona is known for its opera season; tickets for the Arena di Verona can be expensive but are a quintessential experience. Book well in advance.
- •Local wines, especially Valpolicella and Amarone, are excellent value compared to importing them elsewhere. Enjoy them at local enotecas.
