Women traveling alone atract attention from italian males.Always leave a 10% tip and remember to cover up in churches.Show consideration for locals and italians are delighted at any effort to speak thier language,so learn a few phrases.Drunkeness is not exceptable and do not smoke on public transport.If you use a taxi,do ask the price first.
