- Fair taxi price (official, daytime): €80 - €100. Use the official taxi rank outside arrivals. Metered or pre-agreed official fares to Siracusa centre run about 80 to 100 euros. Refuse drivers who approach you inside the terminal or offer flat "tourist" rates.
- Best alternative: AST bus from Catania airport to Siracusa bus station, then walk or take a local bus to your accommodation. (€8)
- Buy and validate your ticket before boarding. Tickets must be stamped in the machine on the bus immediately upon entry. Unvalidated tickets are treated as no ticket. Fine without a valid ticket: €50.
- Tipping is customary but not mandatory. Round up restaurant bills or leave 5 to 10 percent for good service. Taxi drivers appreciate rounding up. No need to tip at bars or for standard counter service.
- Coperto (cover charge) is standard across Italy including Siracusa, usually 1 to 3 euros per person, listed on the menu as "coperto" or "pane e coperto". It is legal and expected. Watch for menus without prices near Ortigia main sights, as these often carry higher charges.
- Always choose to be charged in euros and decline dynamic currency conversion at ATMs and card terminals. Prefer bank-attached ATMs over standalone machines in tourist zones, which often carry higher fees. Notify your bank of travel plans and carry a backup card.
