You've landed in Italy. You're tired. Everyone at the arrivals hall wants to sell you a ride. Here's how each of the main airports actually works — the ride app that works, the fair fare, and the transit option worth taking.

## The rules for Italy

**Ride apps:** There is no UberX in most Italian cities — use FreeNow or itTaxi for a metered white taxi, or the official taxi rank.

**Cash vs card:** Cash for small cafés and rural taxis; cards everywhere else.

**Golden rule:** never take an unmarked car from someone approaching you inside the terminal. Walk to the official taxi rank or open your ride app.
