This may sound weird, but there are few things as satisfying as learning how to successfully navigate the mass transit systems of strange cities.
@LnzyHou Yes, I love the tubes in London. I have only ever used a cab to get to the airport there, but otherwise all tube travel. I grew in in the Bronx and it was all trains and buses for me. I wish we had more widespread mass transit here in the States.
As do I. So much of our environmental issues would be impacted. The combustion engine is killing us.

My oldest son has a knack for it. We traveled a lot from Denver to London when British Air opened their terminal. Round trip $399
He immediately knew the tube. We were like moles traveling everywhere under London. Never took a cab except to see Phantom of the Opera. We were too posh for the tube that night.
