Destination-specific money tips
- •While cards are widely accepted, always have some cash for small purchases, markets, and bus tickets if not bought online.
- •Look for ATMs affiliated with major Italian banks (e.g., UniCredit, Intesa Sanpaolo) to minimize foreign transaction fees.
- •Be aware of 'coperto' (cover charge) in restaurants, which is standard and not a tip.
- •Tipping is not expected like in the US; a small gesture for exceptional service is appreciated, but not mandatory.
- •Wine from the Veneto region (including Valpolicella and Amarone) is excellent and often more affordable locally than abroad.
