Privater Autotransfer von Venice nach Florence

Daytrip's door-to-door service means you'll be picked up in Venice by one of our friendly, English-speaking drivers. Then you'll begin your comfortable and safe ride, with ample opportunity to chat with your driver to learn more about the region and get their local insights. If you add sightseeing stops, they'll deftly bring you to these enriching attractions.

After driving with Daytrip and seeing all you can along the way, you'll get to Florence and its open-air museum, which is full of exquisite works of art and architectural masterpieces. Your driver will bring you right to your accommodation and unload your luggage, ensuring a stress-free start to your Florentine experience.

Over the centuries, it grew into one of the wealthiest European cities, and this wealth can be evidenced hundreds of years later through a simple jaunt through the city. Look at the beauty of its Renaissance-era monuments and architecture, and you'll know why Florence used to be called "the Athens of the Middle Ages."

Today, scholars still marvel at how this small city could profoundly impact Italian and world culture. With little political power or military might, Florence achieved the seemingly impossible – it became a beacon of light and held enormous sway and influence in Italy.

As the Tuscan capital, Florence has countless amazing marvels to be seen, beginning at the walled historic center enclosed by medieval walls, which has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Leave early

The last thing you want is to miss out on the many spectacular sights along the way and in Florence because you left your hotel too late. That's why ensuring you leave early enough not to miss out on anything is important.

With Daytrip's door-to-door service, you can schedule your driver to pick you up first thing in the morning so you can beat the crowds and have an adventure-filled travel day.

Choose a reputable car service

Even though there are many travel options, like catching a bus, train, or flight, it is often better to ride with a reputable car service like Daytrip. You'll be guaranteed a comfortable, friendly, and safe travel experience in a well-maintained car with a driver who knows the Italian cities and their sights. You can chat with them about local culture all the way until they drop you off at your accommodation in Florence.

From Venice to Florence by train

There is a high-speed train that you can catch at Venice's Santa Lucia train station to Florence's Firenze Santa Maria Novella train station. This trip usually takes two hours to complete, making it one of the fastest travel options.

You can choose between two high-speed train carriers – Italo Treno and Trenitalia Frecce. Trains depart Venice several times a day from 7 AM to 4 PM. Ticket prices vary but average about 20 euros. You can buy one at the station, but it's better to book in advance online.

From Venice to Florence by bus

Traveling from Venice to Florence by bus is the cheapest option, but it is also the slowest mode of transportation. A ticket can cost between 10 and 15 euros, so it's an excellent option for those traveling to Italy on a tight budget.

If you want to take the bus, book a seat on the Flixbus that departs several times daily from the Venetian Island of Tronchetto. These are direct buses, so they get you to Florence in 3 to 4 hours. Depending on where you are in Venice, you might need to take a ferry to this island before you can catch the bus. It's also important to note that if you don't take a direct bus, the trip will take longer than seven hours and involve messy transfers.

From Venice to Florence by private car

If you're looking for the most comfortable and convenient way to get from Venice to Florence, you want Daytrip's private car service. Your English-speaking driver will pick you up in Venice, either at your accommodation or at a convenient meeting point, depending on where you're staying. They'll load up your luggage and then hit the road to Florence.

You'll have complete control over your trip, starting with when you're picked up, and then the AC, music, and sightseeing stops once you're on the road. Along the way, you can chat with your driver about local culture or stop for sightseeing---something you can't do with the bus or train.

Prices start at 95 euros per seat if you're traveling in a group, so it's not much more than the train after you factor in getting to and from the train station!

The Uffizi

The most famous gallery in Florence is the Uffizi. Its walls are lined with masterpieces like Botticelli's "The Birth of Venus". Just be warned that this will likely not be a quick visit, as you can spend hours walking through the gallery and discovering the spectacular art on display. Not to mention, you'll be drawn in by the architecture of the building, too, considering it was designed by the famed Italian artist Giorgio Vasari.

Cappelle Medicee

You can't visit Florence without stopping at one of the most spectacular chapels ever built – the Cappelle Medicee. The renowned Florentine family built this wondrous chapel, which is often far less crowded than the ever-popular Duomo.

When visiting, expect floor-to-ceiling beauty with marble flooring, shimmering jewels, and gorgeous frescoes. The Cappelle Medicee also has a smaller chapel nearby with some of the best statues crafted by Michelangelo himself to visit in all of Italy, so be sure to take a turn within its walls.

Walk the Ponte Vecchio

Florence’s Ponte Vecchio is unlike any other landmark bridge in the world. This medieval bridge was the only one in Florence spared destruction during World War II, and it isn’t just a simple span. Instead, it doubles as a market, with jewelers, art dealers, and souvenir sellers lining the side stalls. The views of colorful Renaissance buildings in the distance only add to its lively atmosphere.

Vivoli Gelato

Traveling around Florence on a tight schedule can be grueling if you don't make sure you have enough energy to take in the magnificence of this city. Fortunately, there are numerous eateries throughout the city that you can stop at to grab a bite to eat and an energy boost.

But if you're not in the mood for something savory and have a sweet tooth, you might want to visit the Vivoli Gelato store. It's one of the oldest gelato shops in Florence, opening in the 1930s and serving decadent gelato flavors ever since.
