Florence questions

Is seven days enough for Florence?

Seven days covers the main museums, churches, and two day trips. Reserve Uffizi and Accademia tickets online two weeks ahead.

Do I need to book the Duomo dome climb ahead?

Yes. The dome climb is only sold as part of the Brunelleschi Pass (about 30 euros), with a timed slot for the climb. Book online at least a week ahead, especially from spring to autumn.

How do I reach Fiesole for a day trip?

Take bus 7 from Piazza San Marco station every 20 minutes for 25 minutes. A round-trip ticket costs 3 euros and can be bought from the driver or app.

Do I need reservations for a Chianti wine tasting?

Book tastings at specific estates two to three days ahead during peak season. Tours from Florence cost 60 to 90 euros including transport and two to three tastings.
