May I ask what annual classic events are not to be missed in Sydney on New Year's Day? It feels like New Year's Day needs special arrangements. Wherever you go on days like the Blue Mountains is okay ? Australia Q&A
Not sure how to refill gas in Australia. When my tire pressure warning light came on during a Road trip in the US, I didn't know where to go to refill. I asked a local and they said that every gas station in the US has professional self-service refueling equipment and you need to borrow a hose and nozzle from the gas station's convenience store and do it yourself. There are no stores that specialize in fixing and refilling tires ? Australia Q&A
In fact, it's almost the same as in China. If you are a good driver in China, you will have no problem in Canada! When you rent a car, the website will tell you about the traffic rules and insurance in Canada. The service is very good. There is no toll on Canadian highways. The drivers there drive very strictly. When our domestic traffic is also like this, it will be a real strong country. Gasoline is cheaper than in China, about 5.6 RMB per liter, and there are differences in different places. Remember to fill up the gas (87 octane) if you have the chance ? Canada Q&A
What kind of car is better to rent for Road trip in Germany and Switzerland next July ? United States Q&A
I just got home today. Let me share my experience of renting a car in Italy for your reference. I picked up the car on October 6th and returned it on the 28th, a total of 22 days. I rented from AVIS for a total of 374.6 euros. They tried to sell me insurance, but I refused and said I would take responsibility for any issues. They didn't force me to buy the insurance in the end. They pre-authorized 94.86 euros on my card as a deposit. I booked a BMW 3 series, but they gave me a BMW X1 with navigation. I had heard about people getting downgraded cars before, so I didn't expect much and didn't argue about getting the X1. When I picked up the car, there were noticeable scratches on the front and back. I asked the AVIS staff to record them before I drove off, and they used a yellow marker to mark them on the contract, then circled and signed them with a black pen. The gas tank was not full, and they marked it with a stamp. The car wasn't very clean when I picked it up. When I returned the car, I made sure it was relatively clean. I told the person who received the car that all the scratches were old and showed him the previous markings. I also said that I take good care of the car, and he said I was a good renter . He told me there were no issues and I could leave. I was still worried about any potential problems, so I took new photos of the car from all angles with the date displayed. It's only been a few days since I returned the car, so I don't know if there will be any issues ? 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
[Seeking Help] Honeymoon trip to Thailand in mid to late October. Need advice from experts. We have booked a honeymoon trip to the Mediterranean Club in Phuket in mid to late October. We have a few questions and would like to ask the experts: 1. Diving is the activity we most want to do. We saw in the guidebook that diving at Phi Phi Island costs only 600 baht, while others say it costs 2200 baht per person. What is the difference here? Does the higher price include professional diving instructors? Does the lower price mean the boat captain doesn't take care of you? My husband and I have never dived before, so please recommend a high-quality, safe, and cost-effective option. 2. We want to go shopping in Patong.. ? Thailand Q&A
