There are many things the ave rage tourist must know, in order to optimize the trip to its full value. People have learnt a few inside tips after travelling to Italy as a noticed tourist. The first thing is, if one does not have millions of dollars, it is wise to avoid the city of Milan. Every thing t here is extremely expensive, and the price is doubled discreetly for tourists. For instance (actually anywhere in Italy for ourists), a local may walk in an ask the clerk how much a pair of shoes is.
Stores never put price tags on most of their merchandise, so the clerk my say 90,000 Lira. But, when a tourist walks in, the clerk will probably say 200,000 lira. This happens from boat rides to a cup of coffee. Another thing to remember is to never sit down in Milan. What is meant by thi s is that there is a standing area, and a sitting area in cafes. If one chooses to sit down, the store will surely add on a 30% gratuity charge for the seat. Yes, it is a major scam, but it is erfectly legal. A few things one should know are a few statistics about Italy.
