Take a visit to Florence!

Florence is often an underrated city and one which is defiantly worth a visit especially if you have never been to Italy before. It provides some real culture authentic of Italy.

Amerigo Vespucci international airport is the one closest to the city, with the driving distance being about fifteen minutes, by bus or taxi in this case. If you opt for the bus, there is the Ataf Sita Vola in Bus service that costs 4.50 Euro one-way. It transports to the central train station that gives you access to the other major cities in Italy. The trains are fast and modern and they connect you to the rest of Italy and essentially Europe too.If you are planning on staying in the city why not rent a Florence Apartment so you can enjoy the city in style!

If you really want to appreciate the beauty of Florence, then you should prefer walking the distances to being driven around. The magic of the city is best captured when you are on foot. But if you like there are bike rental services courtesy of the city that can help you get around much faster while still getting to see all the architecture and works of art. The historic center is a no-ride zone and any violation of this results in hefty fines.

To get into Florence via car the A-1 Autostrada is the best highway. It connects to Bologna, Milan and even Rome. Driving around the city is somewhat complicate and if you happen to rent a car, be sure to ask about getting in and out of the city without violating the ZTL- these are rules. Once in the Piazzale Michelangelo, you can make the parking but only for a specified amount of time. You can pretty much walk from here on end since the distance to the heart of the city is not too long.

Not only does it have some beautiful architecture but some stunning restaurants to wet your appetite!
