From Florence Airport to San Casciano

Florence airport Amerigo Vespucci (also known as "Peretola") is 30 Km far from San Casciano in Val di Pesa.

By car

You can rent a car after your arrival as there are some car rental companies in the airport. Make sure you don't arrive when they are closed (usually after midnight), some close at 1 AM.
The journey is very easy as you can see here. It will take about 26 minutes.

Without a car

A) by coach:
Exit the airport and take the ATAF shuttle service (bus number 55, called Volainbus). This shuttle service will carry you directly to the Autostazione SITA (centre of Florence, beside Florence Railway Station Firenze Santa Maria Novella). It costs 4.50 euro, takes 26 minutes. It stops two times in Florence: the fist at Firenze SMN train station, the last at Autostazione SITA (bus terminal). You have to get off at the last, very easy, isn't it?
Please note that normal ATAF tickets are not valid for this shuttle service.

Once inside the Autostazione SITA, you have to buy tickets to San Casciano in Val di Pesa, the price is less than 3 euros. Fastest suburban coach lines takes you there in 35 minutes. See timetables on ACV site.

B) by taxi:
take a taxi service outside Florence airport. We have asked the price to the two taxi companies and they said price would be about 60-65 Euros; please note there is no fixed fee, price depends on lenght of time and kilometres. You should contact them before your arrival to book the service. Check those florentine taxi companies: Socota and Cotafi.
