Firenze Insider-tips

Public Closings in Florence

Westerners used to 24/7 availability of their favorite shops and sites should keep in mind that most public places in Florence (and other parts of Italy) are closed on Sunday—most all day, although a few open in the evening for a few hours. Plan your Sundays accordingly, and call ahead if in doubt about a particular destination. Many establishments (like dance clubs and some bars) close for the summer, usually between June and August, so call ahead if you plan on visiting Florence during those months. « skjul

Getting Around in Florence

The City Center, where many world-class attractions, sites, and museums are located, is closed as a public thoroughfare. That means tourists need to sightsee by walking or biking. Fortunately, many attractions are fairly close and accessible. Bus lines are dependable, but if you board without a ticket (which you must buy in advance and have stamped), you will be fined 50 times the ticket price. Taxis cannot be hailed; you have to call a taxi company or find a taxi stand, and you will pay for the time spent coming to get you as well as the time spent in the cab. « skjul
