THREE COMMON MISTAKES VISITORS TO
ITALY MAKE
And how to avoid them!
Mistake #1: Buying
museum and attraction
tickets at the door.
Bad idea.
Queues could get very long and it may take you one to two hours to even get
to the head of the line!
Yum!
That’s a couple of hours you could be relaxing with a limoncello!
•Buy your tickets ahead of time
INSTEAD:
•Buy tickets online
Like this!
Don’t be afraid to ask your
tour organizer, guide, host, or travel agent!
In case you can’t:
Mistake #2: Relying on
credit cards and checks to
make purchases.
Again, NOPE.
Remember that Italy, unlike the US, is still mostly a cash-based economy.
Have cash ready for:
Trattorias
Small Stores
Artisan shops
Coffee bars
Don’t miss out on Italian street food just because
you didn’t have a few euros in cash in your
pocket! (Mmm… porchetta…)
Especially for street food!
Mistake #3: Asking for a “latte” at an Italian coffee
bar.
FORGET WHAT YOU LEARNED
FROM STARBUCKS
A “latte” in Italy will only get you a glass of milk!
(and weird looks.)
Caffè macchiato Latte macchiato
Learn the proper terms for types of coffee
(more coffee than milk) (more milk than coffee)
And instead, ask the waiter for a cup of
“Caffè latte”(equal parts milk and coffee)
