    Another taxi scam I experienced in Roma. I handed the driver three 20€ bills. Knew I was being overcharged, but … now I use the app. Then he quickly threw one 20€ bill aside and INSISTED I gave him a 5€ bill, not a 20€.. He displayed a 5 € bill he had stashed. I said no, but he was belligerent, and had our luggage in the truck.. He Threatened to call polizia. I swapped the 5 for another 20€ and called it a learning experience. NOW, I count the bills out into their hand! Proving what I had paid.

    Most recent reviews of the free now app the user says they were scammed. Some say they were charged cancelation fees when the driver actually canceled or the driver didn't show up. Do you still recommend this app?

    • @StayFabulousTL
      @StayFabulousTL  Рік тому

      Mindy, I use Free Now app all the time and never had an issue. But you can also try itTaxi. And you can now order a cab through the Uber app. So plenty of options :)

    I will be going in a few months and planned on using Uber because there is 7 in my group so I need a van to pick me up from Fiumicino airport and take me to Rome center. Is it very difficult to get a taxi van at the airport and would that be cheaper than the Uber van or does the taxi company not have vans at all?

    • @StayFabulousTL
      @StayFabulousTL  Рік тому

      Mario, you can definitely get a taxi or Uber van. Recently, the prices for both have being pretty much the same

    hello. my husband and I are traveling to Italy this October. Our itinerary is from Milan to Naples and Rome.Pretty much all main places.I m planning to travel by train. Do you have useful tips for that, mainly tickets buying. Should I book in advance? Also, buying ticket to main attraction in Rome. Thank you.
    By the way, I speak Russian too!

      Hi Galina! I made the entire video on the train system in Italy. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/GpZtYQRf8Y8/v-deo.html One thing I want to mention is that this year I would recommend to buy tickets in advance. You can buy tickets to all the main attractions in Rome on their websites. Have a wonderful trip!

    Is the drinking a capuccino and cornetto at the bar standing up just an adult thing or is it normal to see families with kids also?

    Hi can you drink water from the tap in Italy?

    • @StayFabulousTL
      @StayFabulousTL  2 роки тому +1

      Yes! Tap water in the major cities and towns around Italy is safe for consumption, and there are thousands of water fountains around cities, like Rome, where you can fill up water bottles.
