How much cash should I take with me for my trip?

The amount of cash to take on your trip to Italy depends on your spending habits and travel plans. A good rule of thumb is to have about €200-€300 for small purchases, tips, or places that don’t accept cards, especially in rural areas. Italy is generally card-friendly, so you can use your debit or credit card for most expenses like dining and shopping. Always keep some cash on hand for public transportation, small cafes, and markets. Additionally, consider using a travel-friendly debit card like Wise with low fees for withdrawals to help you manage your budget effectively.
