The most reliable way to get a driving license translation is to do it at the Italian embassy, in Italian.

Some car rental companies do require an Italian translation to be provided.

For buses that don't stop or announce the stations, how do you ensure you don't get off at the wrong stop? It seems that in Italy, buses don't announce the stations and only stop when someone needs to get on or off, and you have to press a red button to signal that you want to get off... The method of counting the stations and listening for announcements doesn't work, so do you rely on the driver to call out the stops? But what if you don't speak Italian and the bus is crowded? Looking out for landmarks? You need to have landmarks to look at, and it's hard to see them when it's dark or when the bus is crowded... So the only thing I can think of is to look at the GPS location on the map... Do you have any clever tricks for this ? Italy Q&A

Hello everyone, could you please tell me if you have rented a GPS when you went to the Dolomites and Amalfi? I find it hard to search for cable car stations, lakes, hiking starting points. Or should I download Google offline maps as soon as possible? I am now waiting for a connecting flight at an airport in Russia, and when I adjust the GPS, I find that many places cannot be searched. I'm also afraid that there will be no signal in the mountains and I can't use Google online maps ? Italy Q&A
