					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://mrandmrsromance.com/how-to-take-a-taxi-in-italy-and-not-get-ripped-off/#comment-128560&quot;&gt;Marlene&lt;/a&gt;.

Hi Marlene. Uber does operate in Italy, but only in the bigger towns like Milan and Rome. I doubt if Pisa has it and I&#039;d bank on Tresana not having it too. It looks like there is a public transport route, but it looks very long and complicated. Honestly, driving in Italy - especially further north - is pretty good. The roads are in a good state and the drivers are fine too.
If you really don&#039;t want to drive though, I&#039;d ask the reception of wherever you&#039;re staying in Pisa to organise a driver for you. It&#039;s about an hour&#039;s drive, so it won&#039;t be cheap, but you&#039;ll get there.
Our other bit of advice is to get the Google Translate app on your phone before you leave and download Italian. It&#039;s really good and can even live translate for you. Then get the map.me app and download the Italian map for the area you&#039;re visiting. Map.me allows you to track where you are with location services even if you don&#039;t have data and have your phone on airplane mode.
Good luck and enjoy Italy. It&#039;s a wonderful place. :-)
Cheers - Jim]]></description>

It&#039;s a funny thing, isn&#039;t it, Margaret? It&#039;s a bit like that in the UK too - other than the black cabs in London, taxis aren&#039;t allowed to just stop on the street there. Thank goodness for Uber! In Italy it&#039;s probably just as well. Things get heated enough on the roads there without taxis vying for your custom!

					<description><![CDATA[Great tips you have given for taxis even though we were in Italy April 2014 and couldn&#039;t understand why the taxis weren&#039;t stopping when we were trying to hail them from the footpath. now we know from that trip you need to go to a taxi stand and they will tell you which taxi to get in they try and be fair to one another.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[[&#8230;] We talk about catching taxis in Italy on the site today. There&#8217;s nothing worse than being taken for a ride (in a bad way!) by a taxi driver. Italian cabbies have a particularly bad rep. This post gives you the tips you need so you don&#8217;t get ripped off by taxis in Italy. [&#8230;]]]></description>

It really does, Lorraine! Though it can make for a funny yarn in years to come. At the time though, it&#039;s horrible.
