————–
If you prefer to go to Florence by car, it takes about 1h 30′ with normal traffic.
To park the car, we recommend two solutions:
- Villa Costanza parking close to the highway exit and clearly indicated with connections to the center (station Santa Maria Novella) every 8 minutes – line T1 and T2 of the tram (20′ ride) – for more information: https://parteggiovillacostanza.it/en/
- The Parkplatz Fortezza Fiera, the car park is quite easily accessible and it’ is just a 20 minute walk from the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, a nice walk through the central market area.
