Travel

Airports

Florence Airport - FLR

Conveniently located, could taxi from airport to hotel, small airport - so may be expensive

Bologna Airport - BLQ

~1-2 hours from Florence, guests could fast train or drive to destination. This is where Dom and I flew in/out of when we traveled to Italy in March 2023 and had a good experience

Pisa Airport - PSA

~1-2 hours from Florence, guests could fast train or drive to destination

Rome Airport - FCO

Guests could fast train from Rome to Florence, Rome is a large airport, so nonstop flights may be an option

Transportation

Taxi

Per our wedding planner, the easiest ways to set up taxi transfers are by contacting the hotels you are staying at to set these up for you in advance or upon arrival.

If you aren't staying in a hotel: try the apps "AppTaxi" or "Taxi move" to reserve a taxi service in advance. Taxi's will be useful for travel from train stations to final destination hotels!

Uber

Although Uber may be around in other Italian cities, according to locals (aka our amazing wedding planner), Uber's are far and few between in Florence, Italy. It would be risky to rely on Uber as your way to get around the city.

Train

Fast trains are a great way to get from one major city to the next. Our wedding planner suggests booking train tickets on 'TrenItalia' and to be sure to book them prior to your trip. Here's the link to book tickets on their website: https://www.trenitalia.com/en/
