Local Tips
Sample local specialties like 'souvlaki' by the river, and use taxis or walk as buses are limited within the city. ATMs are widely available, but small shops may prefer cash.

Tipping is appreciated but not compulsory (round up the bill or 5-10%). Dress modestly when visiting monasteries or churches, and greet with a friendly 'Kalimera' (Good morning).
Safety Warnings
Livadeiá is generally safe but stay alert for pickpocketing, especially in busy markets or during festivals. Use official taxis, and avoid the riverside paths late at night due to poor lighting.
Hidden Gems
Don't miss the Krya Springs park with its ancient watermills, the medieval Castle of Livadeia, and the nearby Oracle of Trophonius cave for a unique off-the-beaten-path experience.
