  1. Florence is a very small city by American standards.  You can walk it in probably three days.  If you want to see all the sights I would suggest splurging 20Euro for a two day tour Venezia open air bus.  It makes the stops near or at all the major stops.  You can see all the major sites in one day.


  2. tyes but you just download Florence and you can see everything there, but Roma is better and Copenhagen, Denmark much better we have a queen, crownprins. couple and 2 ears to the trown.

    they have mafioso in Italia

  3. just try to stay away from taxis as much as possible but if you take the local trains you can hit everything in one or two days. Although to be honest i suggest going off the tourist path your never going to see a country untill you dive in head first.

  4. Yes, all within walking distance.  Be sure to take a day trip to Pisa

  5. Florence is quite small city.

  6. Oh my goodness yesssssssss.......Florence is a small town and very easy to walk around in. All the sights are within easy walking distance of eachother. With a full week in Florence you'll be able to really soak it up slowly and not be rushed. Also, with a week, I'd do a day trip to one or more of the Tuscsan hill towns, like Sienna. You'll have more than enough time to see and do it all in Florence. I never used a taxi in Florence. There's an overlook place that gives you an incredible panaramic view of Florence. That's about the only place I can think of where you'd likely want a ride ( since it's on top of a hill ). Have fun exploring Florence! Also, I guess you know the schedules of the major musuems..........they're closed on Monday's. So, that'd be a good day for shopping or maybe your excursion. I'd go to Sienna over Pisa, FOR SURE. Personally, Pisa is the one place in Italy I really never care to see again. It was VERY touristy with lots and lots of people selling "stuff" and we had to really watch our bags. One of my friends was pickpocketed there. After you see the Leaning Tower of Pisa it was all kind of a let down........at least that was my experience. But, it all depends on your tastes and interests. Enjoy! :)

  7. Yes, they are all very close & the whole city is walkable.  Three days should be enough time to see everything.
