Getting to and from the villa will be difficult for any guests without a rental car (Taxi and Uber are not reliable and can be expensive). If you would like additional flexibility and choose to rent a car upon your arrival in Italy, ample parking at the villa is available. For those who will not be renting cars, we have booked a shuttle service to and from the villa for all guests. The shuttle will be picking up all guests from Santa Maria Novella Train Station in Central Florence on Friday, September 6th at 3:00 pm. Please plan on arriving at the train station a few minutes early to give yourself time to locate the shuttles. Pick up location at train station: PIAZZALE MONTELUNGO Please call or text Claudia (#: 331-636-4356) if you are unable to locate the shuttle upon arrival at the train station.
