Florence City Pass - public transport and museums in Florence on one pass

If you plan to stay in Florence in order to join the rich cultural heritage of the city, then perhaps it makes sense to pay attention to the mapFlorence City Passcombining the functions of a ticket and a single ticket for visiting museums.Florence Map allows you to visit the main museums of the city (once) and use public transport during its validity period. In this case, the cards are for 1, 2 and 3 days.

Why do I need a Florence City Pass card?

The map can be an excellent solution for those who decide to get acquainted in detail with the sights of Florence. It will help to save not only money, but also time, because once having paid and received the Florence City Pass, you will no longer have to stand in line at the cash desk of each individual museum.

Features of using Maps of Florence

As we said above, cards are available for 1, 2 or 3 days. The purchase is made on the site online, and all the necessary documents and instructions are sent to e-mail within 48 hours after purchase.

You can start using the card any day at your discretion within 12 months from the date of purchase. The only “But” - if a card was purchased for several days, then they must be used in a row. For example, May 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

Also note that if you, say, purchased a card for 1 day and entered the first museum on June 1 at 8 am, then your card will cease to be valid at 23:59 on the same June 1. That is, the validity period of the card is calculated not by days, but by calendar days.

It is important to keep in mind that for Florence the maps of Museums and public transport are divided: you can purchase them both together or separately.

If you are thinking about buying a Card, we would recommend taking a closer look at the museum option, but without transport. There are several reasons for this.

Firstly, all the main attractions in Florence are located quite compactly - within walking distance from each other. If you settle in the center (and most travelers do just that), then the need to use public transport will be minimized.

Secondly, a museum card is sent to customers by e-mailand transport - regular mail. Perhaps this is really convenient for Europeans, but for residents of Russian-speaking countries it is quite capable of becoming a problem.

Mail can take a long time, and if you have little time left before the trip, then you run the risk of receiving your order after returning from Italy.

How much does the Florence City Pass cost and how to purchase it?

Since the card is presented in assortment for 1, 2 and 3 days, their prices differ. The most budget card for 1 day (without transport) costs 59.9 Euros, for 2 days - 69.9 Euros and for 3 days - 79.9 Euros, respectively (2018). Significant discounts are provided for children and adolescents.

Unopened Basilicata

Basilicata is one of those regions of Italy where the foot of a Russian-speaking tourist rarely steps. Largely guilty of its geographical location and lack of information. The Basilicata includes two provinces of Matera and Potenza. They are located between the regions of Puglia and Calabria and, as it were, sandwiched between them. The region is located in the very south of Italy near the Gulf of Taranto (Ionian Coast), and its western part is washed by the Tyrrhenian Sea.
