Our Introduction
One of the most famous and beloved regions of Italy, Tuscany is very cultural, and presents its visitors with impressive cities, either for their captivating simplicity or for their unique and rich historical heritage. Tuscany is a priceless gem that Italy is proud to share with the world and its visitors.
Although…
When we talk about Florence, few know that it is possible to visit places close to the Tuscan capital without using a rented car. In fact, this is one of the biggest myths of all: “you can only get to know Tuscany if you rent a car!”. It is not true, of course, that if you want to do specific itineraries such as the Wine Route, for example, then yes, it is very easy to have a car, however, if you don’t mind and prefer to use public means: you will now learn which cities to discover with public transport from Florence.

Cities to discover with public transport from Florence by bus
For shorter distances I suggest you use the bus, as it is fast, does not usually delay, and works very well. To find out about arrival and departure times, you can click here! To check the values, I suggest clicking here, as some prices may change without prior notice.
Fiesole
How to go? Take bus n7 in Via La Pira (Piazza San Marco). Departing from Piazza San Marco in Florence, you will pass through several residential areas of Florence. Then you’ll continue through the charming Fiesole, which offers an impressive view of the capital of Tuscany. Also read: Visiting Tuscany.
The ascent to Fiesole is not the easiest, but if you are one of the people who love a challenge, you can get off at the San Domenico stop and go up on foot, admiring the panorama. Click here to learn more about Fiesole!
Settignano
How to go? Take bus 10 at Piazza San Marco. Passing through the neighborhood of Coverciano, which is all residential, reaching Settignano you can visit the Soccer Museum. From there you can walk around the city without worrying about anything, as it is a very peaceful and pleasant place. Click here to learn more about Settignano!
Parco di Pratolino
How to go? Take bus 25 A from Piazza San Marco. It’s perfect for those who want to get away from the big tourist crowd, especially during the summer. Pratolino is a delight, much quieter and cooler than other cities nearby.
The bus that takes you there stops at the entrance of the park, which is a green oasis in the midst of so much art, in addition, the park houses several villages, such as the beautiful Villa di Pratolino, which is an integral part of the UNESCO heritage list.

ANOTHER GOLDEN TIP
If you want to travel from the Tuscany region for a day trip, remember to follow Ana Patrícia’s super tip: the 3 hours rule! What is this rule? If it takes up to 3 hours to get to and from any city using public transport, it’s worth it, as it won’t be a tiring trip or rush; however, if the round trip time exceeds that time, it ends up not being worth it, unless you sleep at your destination and come back at the end of the next day.

FUN FACT!
Our beloved Tuscany! Do you know the origin of the name Tuscany? I tell you now!
Tuscany, in the Middle Ages, was called Tuscia. This name came from the Latin Tuscia, and designated the territory inhabited by the Tusci, that is, the Etruscans. Tuscia is the plural of Latin Tuscus. Tuscia is synonymous with Etruria which derives from the name of the region of Tuscany; in time: in the region of Lazio we find a city, in the province of Viterbo, called Tuscania.
