On foot from Ponte Vecchio

Ponte Vecchio joins Via Por Santa Maria to Via de' Guicciardini, the street that leads to Pitti Palace. Cross the bridge and follow the street: it is a short walk.

From Piazza della Signoria and the Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio is very close.

By train and from the airport

Florence Santa Maria Novella is the main station, in Piazza della Stazione. From there you walk into the centre and cross the river.

The tram T2 goes from Florence airport to Santa Maria Novella in about 20 minutes. Buy your ticket at the machines at the tram stops, not on board.

By car

The historic centre is a limited traffic zone with cameras at the gates. The easiest way is to park outside the centre, for example at the park-and-ride at Villa Costanza, and continue by public transport.
