A city full of art, culture, history, and traditions. Citizens of Florence love their city more than anything else. In this post, I want to show you how to get to Florence, one of the most beautiful cities in Italy.

The Florence airport is 4 km from the city center, flights can cost from € 100 upwards, as a low-cost airline only Vueling operates here. A weekend the ticket can cost from 120/150€.
Once at the airport, the fastest and most economical transport is Fsbusitalia, costs € 6, € 10 return and leaves every 2 hours. If you are in a hurry, you can always count on Taxi transport.
If you want a cheaper option, you can fly to Pisa, with Vueling and Ryanair, you can find a flight from € 30 for a weekend.
From Pisa airport, it is about 1 hour and it is possible to do it by train or by bus:
By train is the cheapest option, and there are trains until 1am at night, is perfect if you arrive with the last plane of the day. Departure every 30min, ticket price € 8.40 + € 2.70 of Pisa mover. The ticket must be bought all together on the Trenitalia site or separated on the machines in Pisa station.
