    I just returned from a trip to Rome & Florence. I wish I would have seen your video before the trip. We took this train, executive level but did not know about the lounge. Thanks for sharing!

    So nice🤩, state-of-the-art high speed trains in Italy. So much better than the old and slow intercity trains in Denmark.

    Rule for changing money in Europe: just don't do it, it's always a bad deal in train stations, airports or on the street. We always use an online bank debit card that does not charge fees for overseas withdrawals. You just find a local bank and go to the ATM, select English from the list of languages, and it's just like any bank anywhere, even your home town. Why carry American cash which is an expensive hassle to change into local currency when an ATM at a European bank works just like ours? The debit cards we carry are not linked to our main accounts but rather to an account we only use for travel so that if it gets lost or stolen we just call our bank's international number and they shut down the card. We then use our other card, mine or my wife's, depending on who lost their card and carry on.
    Another tip is to get a few hundred euros, some in smaller denominations, from your hometown bank before we leave so that when we arrive we are ready to go without the hassle of changing money to take a taxi, buy some munchies, or buy a ticket on the Leonardo Express to go from the airport in Rome to Termini train station in the center of the city, etc.

    Never use a money exchange! Simply use your regular bank debit card at any ATM.

    Did you have to validate your ticket before boarding the train? We had to validate ours on a time stamp machine when we took the Italo high speed train from Milan to Rome.

      I don’t remember having to validate it at a machine just on the train

      In Italy you usually have to validate your ticket before going on the train if you bought a stamped ticket at the train station. If you buy it online, you just have to show the qr code to the inspector when you are on the train

    Thanks for the video,i am planing to do the same trip in January …i found interesting that almost all men you see on the video don’t use shorts for such a nice day…can you use an American credit card in those trains?

      Normally in Europe they accept all cards, except American Express (at the restaurant, bar, supermarket etc)

    Wow, so you used the currency exchange to illustrate a point? I do not understand how those exchanges can get away with that in this information age.

    • @VirtCam
      @VirtCam  2 роки тому +2

      Well I used the exchange because I had other currency from previous places that needed to be exchanged as it had not value to me anymore. But turns out euronet atms charge up to 20 percent on a transaction at an atm

    NEVER, EVER use money exchange in Florence or any other Italian city.
    Always withdraw euros from an ATM or from a teller in a Bank.

    Nice train, but, why go to money exchange = big rip off - always use atm instead, also, regular train tickets are just fine and comfortable for just a short trip like this. Must be made of money !!
