Arriving in Florence

Florence Airport (FLR), also called Peretola, is linked to the city by the T2 tram, which reaches Santa Maria Novella station in around 20 minutes. Many travellers fly into Pisa Airport (PSA) instead: the PisaMover shuttle connects to Pisa Centrale, where trains run to Firenze Santa Maria Novella in about an hour.

Data tip: turn on AloOui as you land and buy your tram or train ticket in the app before you reach the platform.

Getting around Florence

• On foot: the historic centre is compact and walkable, from the Duomo to the Ponte Vecchio
• Trains: Trenitalia and Italo run fast trains from Santa Maria Novella to Rome, Bologna, Milan and Venice, with tickets in their apps
• Trams and buses: the T1 and T2 tram lines and city buses cover the outer districts
• Driving: the centre is a ZTL (limited traffic zone) with camera fines, so check your route before you drive in

Where you'll use your data in Florence

• The Duomo: Brunelleschi's dome and the bell tower, where climbs need a timed booking
• Uffizi and the Accademia: book timed tickets online to skip the queue for Michelangelo's David
• Oltrarno: artisan workshops, the Pitti Palace and the Boboli Gardens across the river
• Piazzale Michelangelo: the best sunset view over the city

Museum tickets and timed entries

Florence's top sights work on timed entry. Keep your Uffizi, Accademia and Duomo confirmations on your phone, and check your slot before you set off across town.

Data tip: open your booking emails once on Wi-Fi so they're saved on your phone, then use mobile data for maps and changes on the move.

Pisa is about an hour by train, Siena about 90 minutes by bus, and the Chianti vineyards are best explored by car or tour. Cinque Terre is reached by train via La Spezia. Your Italy eSIM covers every stop, including Rome and Naples.
