Transportation will be provided from the city center on Saturday. Return transportation from Villa Corsini a Mezzomonte back to Florence will also be provided at the end of the night.
Travel
The Florence airport, Amerigo Vespucci (FLR), is located about 20 minutes from Florence. Taxis from the airport have a reasonable flat fee, and there is also a very easy train that takes you to the city’s train station, Santa Maria Novella. Once in central Florence, the city is best explored on foot.
