9Florence – The Renaissance City

It may seem far, but Florence is reachable in just 1 hour and 30 minutes by high-speed train, making it one of the most rewarding day trips from Rome. 

The city is an open-air museum, filled with art, history, and style. Admire masterpieces in the Uffizi Gallery, stand before Michelangelo’s David at the Accademia, or stroll across the Ponte Vecchio bridge. The Duomo, with its iconic dome by Brunelleschi, dominates the skyline. Between museum visits, enjoy gelato on the Piazza della Signoria or shop for leather goods in local boutiques. Florence is a cultural feast worth every minute of travel.
