Written by VacationIdea.com Travel Editors.
Taxis in Florence are also quite convenient because they have access to most streets which are otherwise closed to regular traffic. Find out more about taxis in Florence.
Florence also has several bus lines - buses are bright orange. Bus stops are marked with orange signs displaying the route of the particular bus line. You can get around the historic center of Florence on bus lines A and B. These are small orange electric buses which can navigate the narrow streets of Florence.
Bus tickets have to be bought before you get on the bus and stamped with the stamping machine on the bus. Tickets can be bought from newstands and bars displaying the ATAF sign (the sign of the bus company in Florence). After the bus ticket is stamped on the bus, it is usually valid for one hour, depending on the type of the bus ticket.
