Where can I find the best exchange rate?

In terms of currency, it is best to use the local currency. You can find the best exchange rate at a Post Office, bank, or foreign exchange kiosk.

I’m planning on renting a car, what should I know about driving in Europe?

Driving in Europe can be quite different from driving in the United States. Here are some tips to keep in mind when driving in Europe:
Make sure you have the right documents and insurance coverage before you drive. You will need a valid driver’s license, an International Driving Permit (IDP), and proof of insurance.

Pay attention to speed limits. Roads are often winding and narrow, and speed limits can change quickly.
Many countries require drivers to use headlights during the day. Check your rental car’s instructions to make sure you know how to turn them on.
Make sure you know the laws for passing and turning in the country you are visiting.
Be aware of potential hazards, such as livestock on the road or slow-moving vehicles, that may not be common in the US.
Learn to read signs in the language of the country you are visiting.
Be prepared for tolls. Many countries require drivers to pay tolls on highways and bridges.
If you plan to cross borders, make sure you have the right permits and documents.
Most cars in Europe are stick shift.

If you’re using maps on your phone, don’t use Apple Maps. Apple Maps does not work in Europe, you need to use google maps.

Will my phone work in Florence, Italy?

Most carriers can add an international plan for around $10 a day. We recommend having a phone plan for getting around. If you opt out, most places have WiFi, and you can use WhatsApp to text and call while connected to WiFi.
