Rome and Florence, two iconic Italian cities, offer an unforgettable journey filled with history, art and breathtaking landscapes.
The quickest way to travel from Rome to Florence is by high-speed train, taking just 1.5 hours. Prefer a scenic route? Drive through Tuscany's rolling hills for breathtaking views.
Start in Rome, where history comes alive. Visit landmarks like the Colosseum, St. Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican Museums before heading north to Florence.
Driving through Tuscany is like stepping into a postcard. Stop at towns like Orvieto or Montepulciano for authentic Italian experiences.
Take a detour to Civita di Bagnoregio, a magical hilltop town or explore Siena's historic sites before reaching Florence.
Don't miss the Uffizi Gallery, Florence Cathedral, Ponte Vecchio and Michelangelo’s David at the Accademia Gallery.
Enjoy Tuscan specialties like ribollita soup, bistecca alla Fiorentina and handmade pasta. Pair it all with local Chianti wine.
Florence is famous for leather goods, gold jewelry and artisan crafts. Stroll through markets like San Lorenzo for unique finds.
Spring and fall offer the perfect blend of pleasant weather and fewer crowds. Avoid peak summer months to make the most of your trip.
Consider guided tours for deeper insights into both cities. Walking tours in Florence or food tours in Rome are highly recommended.
