My pick-up point is also near the Milan Cathedral. After picking up the car, I will leave Milan directly and go to Cinque Terre. In this case, should I be able to avoid ZTL? ZTL generally restricts vehicles with non-local license plates from entering. If it is a local vehicle, does it not have any restrictions ? Italy Q&A

Have you ever encountered a situation where you couldn't pick up the car because you haven't been certified? I suddenly decided to go to Italy last Wednesday, sent my visa last Friday, and flew to the UK on August 31st. I really don't have time to get certified ? Italy Q&A

The enthusiasm of the people of Sicily, Italy, is a passionate and unrestrained one. In Rome, the enthusiasm you see is a refined routine. For example, when you go to a restaurant, the waiter will recommend two special dishes for the day. When you ask what they are, he will tell you about the volcano beef and swan roasted fish... The prices are all on the menu. Each dish is about 25 euros, not bad, right? When you're halfway through the meal, they will bring you a glass of ice wine, telling you it's complimentary, and shake hands with you... As for the swan roasted fish, they will enthusiastically ask if you need help opening it. I firmly say no, but they will still help you open it as if they didn't hear me... Let's talk about the bill. When you pay, they will tell you it's 293 euros, plus a 10% service charge, and fish is charged by weight (the fish is at most 1.5 pounds, and the beef is only the size of a fist, definitely not 2 pounds), and the water before the meal is 10 euros. Also, when taking a taxi, make sure to use the meter... And there are a lot of pickpockets there, so be careful of women wearing scarves. Even if you put your bag in front of you, it won't help. They will use the scarf to block your line of sight... They usually work in groups... Even so, Italy is still very, very beautiful. It feels like walking in a historical museum, and shopping is also very enjoyable... Wishing friends a pleasant journey ? Italy Q&A

Not just look at consumption or not, but look at whether the final consumption is recorded. Pre-authorization and recording are different. Pre-authorization is to temporarily deduct part of the amount and may return it to you. Actual recording is to clearly consume. It is best to call the credit card customer service to inquire about which pre-authorizations are still available now and whether the problem amount has been recorded ? Italy Q&A

Can everyone please tell me, when self-service fueling, after selecting the oil gun cabinet position number and inserting the credit card and entering the password, the maximum fueling fee will be displayed, and then 20L of fuel will be added. After fueling, the fueling host will print out the bill. Now the problem is that I have received two fee reminders on my credit card text message, the first one is the maximum fueling fee before, and the second one is the actual fueling fee. So, should the first fee be a pre-authorization ? Italy Q&A

Excuse me, I am entering and leaving Italy from Rome, and I am going to Croatia in the middle. I applied for multiple entries and exits of the Italian Schengen. In total, I will stay in Italy for 16 days, with six days at both ends. May I ask if Italy will issue me a multiple-entry Schengen visa for this itinerary ? Italy Q&A

The translation and certification handled by the consulate is the translated certification, while the notary public is the notarized document. These are two different things. Italy only requires translation and certification, while some countries require an oath translation, and some countries require notarization and certification or double certification. These all need to be clearly understood by oneself. If you go to multiple countries, it doesn't make much sense to get one either. Be careful and try not to run into the police ? Italy Q&A

Can anyone who has returned the car in Florence city tell me? The address is Via Borgo Ognissanti 137/R Florence, IT 50123. I'm worried about entering ZTL, but the return point is actually within the ZTL. I asked the car rental company but they didn't reply. Even if I set Google Maps to avoid tolls, it's still not working and I will definitely enter the restricted area. It's really worrying ? Italy Q&A

Milan's ZTL is not scary. You can spend 5 euros to buy a ticket tied to the license plate number. Florence is the one that gives me a headache. I clearly checked the route to Piazza Michelangelo and it was not within the ZTL range, but as I drove, I found those white circles everywhere. I didn't know how to proceed. In the end, I still drove into it. But I didn't see any cameras, and I don't know if I actually entered illegally ? Italy Q&A

Self-service payment is not difficult. It's best to watch others operate when they are in front of you. However, it seems that no one will come to deal with it or post a note even if it is overdue. Today we arrived in Florence. We drove to Michelangelo Square to watch the sunset, which was extremely beautiful. There is a large parking lot on Michelangelo Square. The first hour is 1 euro and the second hour and after is 2 euros ? Italy Q&A

Dear fellow car enthusiasts, I have a question to ask: a few days ago, I bought tickets for the Uffizi Gallery on Fliggy, and two days later I received a confirmation email. However, I had booked a slot for 2 PM, but the merchant had booked one for 8 AM. I admit that I clicked on the afternoon option first, but there was a box below the comment box that still had 8 AM in it, so I cannot change or refund the booking. I was wondering if the morning tickets can be used in the afternoon? Because I will still be in Rome on the morning of September 25th ? Italy Q&A

Encountered a frustrating situation again, in the parking lot of San Gimignano, took the card to park, when I came out and inserted the card for payment, but it didn't show anything, couldn't calculate the fee, I was so anxious and frustrated, couldn't figure it out after half a day of trying, had to reverse the car back to the parking space, and then went to ask a foreigner for help. Later, I realized that I had inserted the card in the wrong direction, and I didn't know if it was upside down or front and back reversed ? Italy Q&A

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! I just visited Cinque Terre on July 29th. It was very difficult to find a parking space (I don't know if it's because it's the weekend). I suggest it's more convenient to take a train from La Spezia to visit Cinque Terre. Trains from La Spezia to Levanto run every half an hour and stop at all five villages. We drove to Riomaggiore first and bought tickets there for 16 euros per person, which allowed unlimited rides all day, including buses and restroom fees. Among the five villages, Manarola has the best scenery. It is said that the night view is also special, but we didn't plan our time well and left Cinque Terre before it got dark. We arrived around 10 am and left around 8 pm, spending about ten hours. We visited all five villages, and the scenery was quite similar. Monterosso, the northernmost village, is mainly a beach resort. Vernazza, Manarola, and Riomaggiore are similar, while Corniglia, after getting off the train, requires a bus ride to reach the top of the town. After 8 pm, the train back to La Spezia runs every hour. I hope my experience can be helpful to friends who are planning to visit Cinque Terre. ? Italy Q&A
