61. Touring by Taxi p.415

 
    One of the most convenient but expensive ways to get around a city in any country is by taxi. And in
some cases, tipping is expected.
    A taxi driver knows the city like the back of his hand. He can tell you whatever you want to know. At
the same time he'll be your personal tour guide. He can take you wherever you want to go. So, however
expensive the taxi ride may be, the advice you get from the driver will certainly be worth it.
