Nice area to stay in — Oltrarno district (try around Piazza Santo Spirito) but you can’t go too wrong.

I’m going this July for 3 days. I’m kinda concerned about the heat. I’m from South Texas where summers get pretty hot and humid. What type of hot should I expect? And also I’ll be by myself. Any tips for me to do and not do?
The newly built tram runs directly from the airport to downtown Florence

Could you please tell me , Nearest Best Hill town from Florence ?

Many Thanks
Great video… i am going in April. I plan to hit Rome, Florence, Venice, Milan, Napoli using the eurrail pass.
I am not sure if i should just get a hotel/airbnb in one city maybe Rome…. or should i spread out my hotel/airbnb stays for the 2 weeks of being there?
I'm planning to take my wife to Florence and the wider Tuscany region for our anniv. Unfortunately (or so it seems) this falls in the middle of July. From what I've heard, it gets really, really hot and throw in the crowds, it could end up being a less than pleasant experience. Is this true? I don't want to ruin a holiday so may look at moving it out to Sep if that makes it more pleasant. Any guidance is appreciated.
Grazie
Thanks for the vid! We're heading off to Florence for a long weekend and your 9 points (excluding the airport one) are just so useful!

Hi I'll be visiting Florence in a month…so can you tell me some budget friendly places to eat and shop.
Also are the outlet malls worth visiting and how far are they from city centre
There is also the Firenze card. If I was going anytime other than winter I would just get it. It is a museum pass. You don’t wait in line with it.
I know you are talking about Pisa but I always fly into Florence. It is around 20-25€ for a taxi.
If you are flying from Europe look into flying into Florence. When I flew from the states our connection was through Frankfurt and then to Florence. I fly from Paris direct to Florence and also some carriers will connect through Rome. I also try to go to Florence once or twice a year.
