Getting around

"Fiorentino is small and walkable, but to explore San Marino, buses connect to the capital and other towns. Taxis are available but pricey. Renting a car gives flexibility, though parking can be limited. Biking is popular on scenic routes. For a unique experience, try the local funivia (cable car) from the capital."
