Just back from 8 glorious days in Italy… jet lagged like nobody’s business, but replete…
Thinking about all the forms of travel required to get from here to Florence, around Tuscany, to Venice, back to Florence, and back to San Francisco. Looks a bit like this (not including copious amounts of time spent on foot):
taxi, plane, bus, plane, taxi, taxi, car (rental), car (friend), car (rental), taxi, train, boat(s), train, taxi, plane, taxi
All that’s missing is the rickshaw!
sounds like you didn’t go for package tour.
wouldn’t it be cheaper?
usually rentals are cheaper, if you go for packages.
similarly, if we rent a classroom in singapore, renting it with photocopier, printer, receptionist’s services, etc means overall lower average costs.
