About Florence
Florence is located on the banks of the Arno, close to the Tyrrhenian Seas, in the northern part of central Italy. It is one of the most visited cities in Europe and is well known for its impeccable food, crafts, art, culture, history, and architecture. Since it lies on the main national railway line, it is easy to reach from most cities in Italy and abroad.
According to historical accounts, Florence was founded as a colony by the Romans in the first century BCE. But it reached its cultural zenith between the 11th and 15th centuries. During this time, the city prospered, with a balance of authority between the Pope and the Emperor. However, the 15th and 16th centuries saw the most growth under the rule of the Medici family, with the city spawning incredible art and culture during this time. There's a reason Florence is known as the "Birthplace of the Renaissance".
Florence has taken its role as one of the most important centers for arts and culture seriously ever since. That is why numerous travelers flock to Florence throughout the year to get a taste of what this city has to offer. And we can't blame them with displays like the magnificent Duomo Cathedral, Chianti vineyards, and bustling markets. So hop in a Daytrip luxury vehicle and make your way from Alba to Florence today!
From Alba to Florence: travel tips
No matter how you look at it, visiting Florence is a dream come true for most globetrotters making their way across Europe. When you drive from Alba to Florence, be prepared to be entirely captured by the city's unique charm.
After all, Florence is not just another Italian city; you'll feel transported back in time when you walk through the cobblestone streets, admiring the towering, domed Duomo Cathedral and listening to faint accordion music on the wind. However, be sure to keep a few of the below travel tips in mind to ensure you have the trip of your dreams and not nightmares.
### Practice Patience
If you're not a native of Italy, you're likely used to living life at a faster pace, so it might shock you to be immersed in a slower culture than you might have expected. That's why it's crucial to practice patience when traveling from Alba to Florence and around the city when you get there. Patience will go a long way in ensuring your travel experience is enjoyable.
### Purchase museum tickets in advance
Let's face it: Italy has some of the best museums in the world. So when traveling by private car service Daytrip or with a bus or train, be sure to capitalize on as many museum visits as you can cram into your travel schedule.
Just buy tickets in advance. You don't want to wait in line in the blistering heat as the Tuscan sun beams down on you.
### Don't overschedule your trip
It can be tempting to try and fit in as much as possible while traveling from Alba to Florence, but the reality is that you won't get to see and do everything there. So, before you visit, have a look at what you want to do most in beautiful Florence and along the way. If you're still unsure after doing your travel homework, you can ask your Daytrip driver for a few recommendations.
How to get from Alba to Florence
Getting from Alba to Florence can be somewhat challenging. If you're unsure how to travel, have a look at our breakdown of all three transportation options below:
### Alba to Florence by train
First things first: if you plan on taking the train, you need to know that it will likely take more than five hours to get from Alba to Florence. Next, you need to know that tickets can cost between $41 and $121 one way, depending on the train carrier you choose and when you travel.
You won't have many choices when it comes to train lines. Trenitalia is the most popular, so be prepared for one to two transfers, with most trains stopping in Turin.
But don't get too excited as you won't get to sightsee during these stops (unless you buy separate tickets). You can also take a train to Turin or Genoa and then fly to Florence, but this is often more of a hassle than it's worth, with lengthy travel timeframes and expensive ticket costs.
### Alba to Florence by bus
ASP, Coas Consorzio Astigiano, and Gruppo Di Maio offer daily and weekly bus trips from Alba to Florence. The price of a ticket with these bus lines varies, but on average, you should budget between $30 and $45.
This means that bus travel is the cheapest way to get from one city to the next. However, the downside is that you will encounter transfers, often crowded cabins, and long trip times—the average bus trip takes more than seven hours.
### Alba to Florence by Daytrip private car transfer
The trip from Alba to Florence is incredibly scenic, especially when you travel along the coast for part of the journey. Unfortunately, if you drive yourself, you'll find it difficult to enjoy yourself since you'll need to navigate the foreign roads and traffic. That's why booking a private car trip with Daytrip is the best way to travel.
Not only will you not have to worry about road signs and traffic, but you'll also get to sit back and relax while enjoying the passing scenery. You'll also get to pick your professional English-speaking driver's brain for local insights and travel tips to help make your Florence adventure even better! Or if you want a truly unforgettable experience, stop for sightseeing along the way.
Daytrip rides start at 138 euros per person, and the trip takes about four hours and 10 minutes—much faster than the train and bus and far more comfortable.
Things to do when you get to Florence
As the birthplace of Renaissance, it's unsurprising that Florence has much to offer visitors. From breathtaking artworks, unimaginable architecture, intriguing museums, delicious cuisine, and a rich history to captivating culture, traditions, and landscapes, there is something for everyone in this slice of heaven. To learn more about the best things to do when you drive from Alba to Florence, look at the information below.
### The Accademia
The Academia or Galleria dell'Accademia di Firenze, as the locals know it, might not get as much attention as the Uffizi Gallery. Still, this small art museum is worth the trip. It might have a very small collection of works, but these masterpieces are some of the best in the world, like the main focal piece, 'David' – the infamous sculpture by Michelangelo.
Besides getting to glimpse the 'David,' you'll also get to see four unfinished statues by this master sculpture alongside other pieces by artists like Sandro Botticelli. However, tickets can be difficult to get, so book as soon as possible.
### Ponte Vecchio
Florence might be best known for its Renaissance-style buildings, but it's also worth visiting to glimpse the medieval past. If this time period interests you, you'll certainly want to visit Ponte Vecchio, one of the best examples of a well-preserved Medieval bridge. It is wholly constructed from stone and has huge stone archways that you can admire while you browse the numerous unique shops that line the bridge.
### Mercato Centrale
If you want to visit a market when touring Venice, you should consider visiting Mercato Centrale. If you want to buy local produce, including meat, flowers, beeswax, wine, and food, this market is the place to be. Interestingly, the bottom half of the market has traditional Italian-style vendors, while the upstairs houses the more modern shops, with more food shops than anything else, so be sure to visit on an empty stomach.
When is the best time to visit Florence?
Usually, the best time to visit Florence is in the spring or fall. But anytime between May and September, you can look forward to pleasant weather, open-air dining, art and music festivals, and a lively atmosphere.
July and August tend to be expensive in terms of accommodation, attraction fees, and transportation, not to mention larger crowds. So we usually recommend the shoulder season, when the weather isn't as hot, the city's less crowded, and the prices are lower.
If you want to save some money and not have to deal with large crowds, you can travel to Florence from Alba during the late fall or winter. The weather isn't as nice, but the lower prices make up for it. Plus, if you spend most of your time in the museums, the weather outside doesn't matter much anyways.

“Utilicé este servicio para un traslado desde Split, en Croacia, hasta Perast, Montenegro. Mi experiencia fue excepcional. Mi conductor, Bojan, fue servicial, informativo y se aseguró de que mi viaje fuera cómodo y agradable. Recomiendo encarecidamente este servicio.”
“Quedamos extremadamente satisfechos con la calidad del servicio que recibimos de Day Trip. Tuvimos dos viajes con Day Trip el 31 de agosto de Atenas a Lefkada y el 7 de septiembre de Lefkada de regreso a Atenas. Ambos viajes incluyeron paradas en lugares pintorescos de Grecia. Ambos conductores fueron excelentes y complacientes. Sin embargo, nos gustaría especialmente reconocer a Panos Peppas, quien fue nuestro conductor de Lefkada a Atenas. Panos fue increíblemente amable y agradable, y brindó un servicio al cliente excepcional, que incluyó encargarse de todo nuestro equipaje, proporcionarnos aguas frías durante todo el viaje, darnos barritas de proteína, entregarnos material impreso sobre el Canal de Corinto (una de las paradas escénicas), buscar y facilitarnos información sobre la terminal y la puerta de nuestro vuelo de regreso a casa, y proporcionarnos una receta de tzatziki.”

“Nos encanta absolutamente esta empresa y la hemos usado muchas veces a lo largo de los años para ir de un lugar a otro sin la molestia de alquilar un coche nosotros mismos. Conductores excelentes cada vez. Eficientes y profesionales. Vale cada centavo y sinceramente recomendamos Day Trip a todos. Su calificación de 5 estrellas está totalmente merecida.”
“Viajamos de Núremberg a Múnich en un hermoso Audi. El conductor nos recogió en nuestro hotel a la hora exacta solicitada. Nos llevó a Múnich con suficiente tiempo para nuestro próximo tour. El conductor se aseguró de que estuviéramos cómodos.”
“Gonzalo de Daytrip fue nuestro conductor y fue absolutamente increíble. Hizo todo lo posible por localizarnos, ya que no teníamos buena señal en nuestros teléfonos. Esperó pacientemente nuestra llegada al vestíbulo para llevarnos desde el Tulum Dreams Resort a nuestro otro hotel en Cancún, a una hora y media de distancia, cerca del aeropuerto, antes de nuestro vuelo de regreso a casa. Fue educado, respetuoso y amable. Se aseguró de que estuviéramos cómodos durante todo el trayecto. Rápido y directo. Recomiendo esta empresa, ya que encontrar un transporte solo de ida de Tulum a Cancún no es fácil ni barato, y esta empresa ofrece un excelente servicio a un gran precio. Definitivamente los volveré a usar cuando esté en la zona de Cancún/Tulum. Gracias, Daytrip y Gonzalo.”
“Marianna nos recogió para llevarnos de Heraclión a Chania. El clima era terrible y, debido a esto, Marianna llegó unos minutos tarde. Me contactó para avisarme. Marianna vive en Chania y hizo que nuestro viaje fuera muy interesante al contarnos sobre cosas locales para hacer y ver en Chania. Marianna es una conductora segura y todos nos sentimos cómodos con la velocidad a la que conducía y lo bien que manejó bajo la fuerte lluvia. Es una persona encantadora y habla inglés con fluidez. Recomendamos mucho a Daytrip, y si estás en Heraclión o Chania, asegúrate de pedir a Marianna.”
“Utilicé el servicio para ir de Luxor a Hurghada, Egipto. Ahmed H fue nuestro conductor y fue perfecto. El coche era nuevo, estaba limpio, tenía agua y aperitivos para nosotros, y acomodó nuestras paradas. Gran servicio de su parte y lo recomendaría.”
“Usamos Daytrip para dos trayectos en México, y ambos fueron geniales. Muy cómodos, y llegamos a cada destino a una excelente hora. Ambos conductores fueron increíbles, y nos sentimos muy seguros. Uno de nuestros conductores, Miguel, también puso la mejor música. Definitivamente usaremos Daytrip en nuestro próximo viaje a México.”

“No sabíamos qué esperar de este viaje y reservamos desde Australia. Inicialmente buscábamos una forma fácil de viajar de Granada a Málaga. Decidimos no perder la oportunidad de ver algo más en nuestro camino. Miguel ciertamente superó nuestras expectativas. Su inglés era excelente (lamentablemente hablamos muy poco español), y fue muy amable y servicial. Disfrutamos mucho escuchando sobre las regiones por las que pasamos y también discutiendo algunas de las costumbres locales. Miguel nos llevó a Antequera como estaba planeado y se aseguró de que pudiéramos conseguir fácilmente nuestras entradas para las atracciones sin ninguna prisa. Nos recogieron y dejaron puntualmente y realmente disfrutamos nuestro viaje. Esperamos volver a España y poder usar este servicio nuevamente en algún momento.”
“Utilizamos el servicio dos veces mientras estábamos en Tailandia. Servicio al cliente extremadamente rápido y eficiente. La mejor tarifa ofrecida en Chiang Mai para los viajes. Conductores educados, puntuales, profesionales y que hablan inglés. Vehículos limpios y cómodos. Siendo un visitante habitual de Tailandia, este fue, sin duda, el mejor servicio. Muy satisfecho con la empresa. Espero que mantenga la excelencia del servicio que nos brindaron.”
