Tips For Business Travelers In Rome


Traveling for business can be fun and at the same time, a good way to see the world and make money at the same time. Traveling on business, you can enjoy the same advantages as a tourist. You can go to all the trendy restaurants to enjoy superb sightseeing dinner at night, to finish the job, perfect time to enjoy the architecture of the site without crowds and with a different highlight. Although obviously have to work: you are traveling to get a result and it means to be produced quickly and efficiently. I will highlight some of the challenges and some solutions for the business traveler in Rome. Getting around in Rome Getting around the city used to be easy for the traveler who had expenses paid. The taxis were invented for that! You take a taxi at the airport, in the office, hotel or restaurant, a nice guy you closer to your destination, and just even give you some advice about restaurants worth eating or a few bars worth a visit and a good coffee. In times of crisis, however, travel budgets are smaller and probably the thing that you should submit invoices less the absurdity of taxis.

Here are some tips for saving some eurillos of your travel expenses: Upon arrival at Rome Fiumicino Airport you can take the Leonardo Express to Rome's main station, Termini, which is also terminal of many bus routes. From Termini, you can take a taxi to your hotel or even if it's one of the leading hotels in Rome, walking. Moreover, from Fiumicino airport, another train will take you to Roma Trastevere station or Rome Ostiense. The Rome metro is not very big, but if you're lucky, you will find accommodation near metro stops one of two metro lines in Rome. Anyway, if you decide to take a taxi, they are one of the local numbers for yourself you can call a taxi: June 3570, June 6645, 068,822. If no phone call from an Italian, typing +39 and then the number (including zero). Please note that airport taxis accept credit cards, while taxis that you will call or you will take on the street usually accept only cash.

Engaging in Rome In fact, you can communicate by speaking in Spanish or in English: I usually understand Italian, but not necessarily respond to you in Spanish or English. Even if memorizáis some keywords in Italian will make your stay more enjoyable, so encouragement and learn a little Italian:

Numbers are important if you want to get directions, or product prices to tip in a restaurant. You can save just by learning the numbers from 1 to 10, and then joining them, but if you want more satisfaction, poderéis continue until 1000. The numbers from 1 to 10 in Italian are: one, due, tre, quattro, cinque, sei, sette, otto, nove, sixteen to book your hotel in Rome or make restaurant reservations, will serve you seven days a week: lunedì , martedì, mercoledì, giovedì, venerdì, Sabato, domenica. Now we have the numbers and days. To add "please? pregutas to your "per favor?. Now that we can reach the sites and shopping, to thank the taxi driver or waiter for a good meal, "grazie? and to say anything "prego?. With a vocabulary of 15-20 words, I feel much more at home in Rome. Rome business world mobile phone charges while roaming are slowly beginning to be lower in the European Union, even if you have to do a couple of conference calls from abroad will still cost a pretty penny. The easiest solution is to buy a prepaid SIM card in any phone shop.

For about 10 euros will have an Italian number and SIM card that you can use any GSM phone free. Two telephones take you on your journey, or buy one when you arrive at a cost of 30 euros. If you do not have to pay when roaming on a conference call with the headquarters of your company, you will have saved. When I buy a local number, which I always do is send an email to my colleagues and contacts you have to talk during my stay. Internet access is not so easy. You can buy a prepaid 3G Internet account, but is expensive and so are the costs per megabyte. The best option is to find a bar with wireless around your accommodation in Rome: you will recognize because they tend to have a Wifi Zone logo on the outside. A plus will be a good cappuccino or espresso aroma as much revisáis your email. Eating out in Rome There are many articles and even books that speak of eating in Rome, so I'll give you two directions so you can quickly decide where breakfast, lunch and dinner.

For breakfast, nothing easier than filling the stomach with good breakfast buffet in your hotel. If you want to get close to one of the many cafes in Rome, you can hang out with the Romans and Roman live morning atmosphere and even save a few euros. Many cafes are open from 7 in the morning. So you can enjoy an Italian croissant, which in Italy is called "cornetto? capuuccino and delicious way to start the day. My suggestion is that you enter only the sites you see Italians and tourists. While many scientists study how the Italians can be as thin with a diet of pasta, different kinds of bread and olive oil, experience tells me it's because they eat a lot. Working in Rome, I have seen many of my colleagues not only eat, but pass the cappuccino or espresso in the morning until dinner. So if you expect a meal, to acquire something lighter just in case ... Take breakfast and try to find something to eat. In Rome, as in Italy, it is easy to find a piece of pizza or a plate of taglio to survive until the pasta dinner.

The Romans often dine from eight or eight and a half: the restaurants are open until 23.00. Choose restaurant can be a daunting task, but in Rome there are hundreds. Many of these restaurants are tourists and do not necessarily care about the love of cooking, so I advise you ask among your Italian colleagues or partners. In addition, TripAdvisor will give very useful recommendations on restaurants. Anyway, if you have no chance to inquire about where to go for dinner, try the following steps: If the place has more than 5-10 tables, do not enter if the restaurant's name is named after a tourist attraction, do not enter if People see tourist hats and cameras hanging from his neck, the better to avoid If you find waiters out the door inviting you to come, do not enter if the menu is written in English, do not enter if is a small restaurant with Italian families with children or elderly people discussing animatedly in Italian, have found the ideal place to have dinner in Rome! I hope you enjoy your stay in Rome even if you are traveling for work!
