So a lot of people think that the taxis are the cheapest way to get around, but actually using the bus system is the way to go (aka Vaparetto). As per regular Italian ways, you buy your bus ticket before boarding. It's a lot cheaper than using a taxi, and it's also really easy to figure out which ro…
