I am going to be coming on a train from Venice, Italy to Florence.
Can anyone tell me what is the best station to come into in Florence
(location, safety, etc.) as close to the main sights as possible?
Also same question for Rome. Thank you!
You will arrive via express train from Venice at Santa Maria Novella
station... safe and a close walk to the center... maybe 20min walk to
the Duomo and 30 to Santa Croce.
You will arrive from Florence by express train to Rome Termini Station,
not a great area, but there are many tourist hotels there. About 30
min walk to the Vatican and 20 to the Colosseum.
