Torre e faro di Calamosca 1. The best way to buy food products is to go to one of local markets. The prices for all types of goods will be lower by approximately 40% comparing to large supermarkets and grocery stores. The most advantageous way to purchase souvenirs is also to go to markets or workshops. However, clothing and jewelry should be bought in specialized stores and shopping centers.
2. Grocery stores and markets start working quite early, at 7 - 8 am. Shopping malls and boutiques open a little later - at 9 - 10 am. Working hours can differ from shop to shop. As a rule, shopping centers are closed until 20:00.
3. Almost all governmental institutions are closed on weekends and holidays. This also concerns numerous shops and restaurants. Sunday is usually a day off in all institutions, and some organizations can have short working days on Saturday and Monday.
4. The most beneficial way to make phone calls to other cities and countries is to use special public telephones that are marked with the «TELESELEZIONE» sign. They can be installed close to governmental institutions and shopping centers, restaurants and bars. These payphones are operated by special chips and plastic cards that can be bought in any newspaper or tobacco outlet.
5. Do not forget to leave tips in all restaurants and cafes of the city. A reward of 10% of the total order will be enough. Taxi drivers, tour guides and maids at your hotel should also receive a small cash reward. The local residents will also gratefully accept any reward if they have helped you.

6. Power supply voltage is 220V. All hotels are equipped with the standard European wall sockets. If necessary, adapters and connectors for appliances can be purchased at any specialty store. Large hotels usually provide them on request.
7. When meeting with local residents, tourists should not forget to say not only their name, but also their profession. These are the rules of the local etiquette. When entering a public institution, make sure you don’t forget to greet the people present.
8. Smoking in public places is prohibited in Cagliari, so you should not forget to pay particular attention to prohibitory signs. There are specially designated areas for smokers close to restaurants, shopping centers and government agencies.
9. Travelers are advised to move around the city on foot because this is the best way to explore numerous attractions of Cagliari. Taxi is considered a common mode of transport. All cars are equipped with counters. Taxi is not the cheapest form of transport, so the cost of a trip is better to specify in advance.
