Was there last October 2023. Still in awe with the magnificent beauty of Italy.
Will definitely go back. Miss the food, arts and the people. Grazie mille!
So glad you had a chance to experience beautiful Italy! Thanks for watching and for your comments!
Super helpful! Planning our own 3.5 day trip in September. Thank you for this!
Thank you! I am glad you find it helpful! Have a wonderful trip!
Ottimo! We are going to be there in 3 weeks and cannot wait! Thanks so much for an inspiring video come sempre.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Great news! A new Rome Wise video is always welcome, and 2 1/2 days in Florence is a perfect subject. Thanks!
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Excellent video, thank you !. I was going to so a day trip from Rome in September but will wait now until next visit when I have more time.
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you find the video helpful! Have a great trip.
Wow! The food looked as awesome as the artwork in the museums!
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Glad to see another RomeWise video and especially glad to visit Florence with you! I've been twice and can't wait to go back again. I stayed a whole week on a solo trip in 2018 and still didn't see everything I wanted. Santa Croce is my favorite church in Florence. Fingers crossed that I'll make it back to Rome and Florence sometime this year!
Thanks so much for watching and for your kind comments. I am so glad you enjoyed the video!
Great video.I was last in Florence 9 years ago celebrating my daughter`s 15th.Thanks for bringing back some memories.
Thanks so much! I am glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing! Thank zou for this wonderful video and great recommendations :)
Thank you so much for watching! I'm glad you find the video helpful!
My wife adores Florence and having watched your quick guide she wants to go again in July for the day when we are visiting Rome for a week. Thanks again for a great video
Thanks so much! I am glad if you video helped with ideas for your visit!
Wonderful video! Thank you so much! This brings back many memories of when I lived in Florence many years ago. Honestly, instead of 2 1/2 days, you could spend 2 1/2 weeks in Florence and still not see and do everything.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Yes, like Rome, Florence is a place you can pretty much never see everything. I love that about it - it's an endless discovery!
Thanks, I planned to be there in July.
Great! I hope you find the video helpful!
Awesome video!! Can't wait to go back!! When did you visit Florence? Must have been nice weather since everyone is in shorts, t-shirts and tank tops.
Thank you so much! We went at the beginning of September, which was still summer and pretty hot. I just didn't get to editing it until recently.
lkie, incredible done!
Thank you!
Thanks Elyssa for the video, you seemed to have enjoyed Florence! I am planning my visit this summer, are you recommending to climb the dome more than the bell tower ?
Thanks for watching! Hmmm, it's not that I recommend one over the other. We only had 2.5 days and only had time + energy for one. I would climb them both if I had time! But either one is special and offers stunning views.
Thank You for your efforts in putting this video. We are heading to Firenze also. Could you please suggest your preference in places to stay in Firenze. Grazie. Love your content, don't have words to appreciate the help.
Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you enjoy the video. We stay at various places in Florence - it really depends on whether you are looking for an apartment, hotel or B&B, and of course on your budget, and what kind of space you want. I suggest you pick the neighborhood and from there, pick the hotel/apartment. You might want to stay in the historic center to be close to everything, but we like the Oltrarno. It's still close to the center but just out of it enough to feel more neighborhoody.
Great video. How long was your walk to your hotel? We are going to Florence from Rome in June and staying at Piazza Della Signoria, any recommendations on what Bus to take?
Thank you! It was maybe 20 minutes from Santa Maria Novella to our hotel in the Oltrarno. For us it was a nice walk.
From Santa Maria Novella to Piazza della Signoria it's maybe a 10-15 minute walk.
If you prefer a bus, I would use Google maps and use their public transportation setting to see what's available for the route you need. If you are up for a walk, I think it's the best way to get around.
Love this, have never visited Florence but have always wanted to. The Dome looks scary but I have climbed St Peters can you compare the 2?
Thank you! Yes, I would say that both climbs can be claustrophobic and also tiring. But one huge difference is that at Saint Peter's there is a lift that takes you have way up if you want. On the other hand, the Florence dome is on foot from street level. There is no elevator option. Basically both are big climbs, tiring, a bit steep, but oh so worth it!
@@Romewise thank you so much for the useful information 😊
Very useful~~can you please share the hotel(apartment) information that you stayed across the Arno River?
Thanks so much! Yes, we loved our stay here and would happily stay again:

Great video! We are going next week to Rome and Florenece 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Do we need the digital green pass? Us citizens traveling from Barcelona to Italy fully vaccinated. Thanks for any tips! First time in Europe
Thank you so much for watching. I am glad you enjoyed the video. I have links in the description to all the pages on my website where I update you with the latest news and information regarding Green Pass and Covid travel rules and restrictions.
If you are fully vaccinated, you just need your CDC cards. THAT is your Green Pass.
Again, please visit my website for lots more details! Have a great trip!
Where are the vintage clothes shops you mentioned in the video please?
There is a large concentration of vintage shops near Piazza Goldoni. Some that we stopped in included Epoca Vintage Firenze, mercatino di ninni, Tartan Vintage, and HunterVintage Firenze.
Beautiful video and unlike too many others you actually show the sights.. not your face taking up 95% of the screen as you walk past them. You should give lessons!.. Thank you! Subcribed!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I still consider myself a bit "new" to CZcams and I have learned from the many comments I've received on previous videos to show the sites more and my face less. I am glad it has improved my videos! Thanks again!
@@Romewise I find it a millennial/genx problem with narcissism. ;-). We all have people we know that come back with vacation photos of their face, standing front of... but you can't see where they are...The worst are the young ladies that complain about lack of time.. but have obviously spent hours on their hair and makeup... Influencers.. LOL!.. Keep up the good work.
@@THillick Honestly my goal is to make videos to show beautiful places to visit. I am glad you like them!
Love Florence. Please slow down the video. By the time I read or sometimes never finished! , there was no time to actually look at the scenes in your video.
Thank you so much for watching my video. Thanks also very much for giving me some pointers for how to improve my videos. I'm always learning and I appreciate your letting me know what I could do to make my videos better. Thanks again!
Do you have any cooking classes to recommend or how to get to Tuscany from Florence
I'm sorry but I don't have any specific cooking classes to recommend near Florence. I would suggest checking on GetYourGuide or Viator. Sorry I don't know one to suggest to you!
I Just have 8 hours to visit Florencia😂. Hope I will have enough time to go up to Piazzale Michelangelo❤.
Well if you make that your priority, I think you can make it! Maybe taxi there and walk back?
I went up those stairs while very hungover and being 6’5 doesn’t help! Although much roomier than the St. Peter’s
Oh my gosh! I cannot even imagine this! Glad you made it up and down ok!
what month was this that you visited?
It was in August 2021.
Wonderful video. First, I'd like to say that among all the different youtube videos on Italy I love yours the most. I also visited your website and learned a lot. Thank you. I wonder if you may share some insight about Firenzecard. We will visit Italy for the first time in mid April. We plan to spend at least 3 full days in Florence so I am planning to buy the Firenzecard. However I was not able to find the details about how early I should use the card to reserve Uffizi visit in order to get the time I want. Their website only says to call a number or go in person to reserve. However nowadays popular places need to reserve as early as 2 months ahead, I am afraid that we may not be able to get the time we want if we only reserve it a few days ahead. Your response is very much appreciated.
Dear Julia,
Thanks a lot for your kind words- I'm so glad you are enjoying my channel and my videos.
We just did another video about Florence and it will be up soon. In the meantime, you've given me a great idea to do a video about the Firenze card.
I don't know the answer to your question but I would err on the side of booking early, and call now to book the time you want. Tourism has been intense this past year and it's going to be similar in 2023, so I'd expect things to get filled up. Book as far ahead as you can.
Have a great time in Florence!
What’s the official website I’m just scared to get scammed
Which official website? My website is www.romewise.com. Do you mean for the Uffizi? Or the Florence tourist board? Please let me know and I'll be glad to help.
