Florence, Italy
How to travel around Florence — 5 options, what they cost, and which booking apps fix the fare before you go.
The historic centre is small, flat and largely pedestrianised — walking is not a compromise here.
Three lines, including the airport link to Peretola.
Regional buses into the hills, cheap and frequent.
All under two hours, making Florence a good base.
The centre is closed to non-resident vehicles and camera-enforced.
Agreeing the fare in an app before you travel removes the argument at the end of the journey, which is where most transport scams happen. Links go to each app's official page — lookalike apps are themselves a scam.
Hails licensed metered taxis across Italian cities.
The private high-speed operator, often cheaper on the same corridors.
