Flight
Most guests will be flying from Miami, though others may depart from elsewhere. Depending on your travel plans, there are many ways to get to Montichiello, Italy! There are direct flights from Miami (MIA) to Rome (FCO) via ITA Airways, and many one-stop options to Rome, Florence (FLR), or Milan (MXP) through various airlines. You might want to fly straight to Italy and back just for the wedding, or make it part of a longer European trip — either way, there’s no one “right” way to get there. In any case, we recommend booking early for the best routes and fares.
Train
Italy’s train system is fast, reliable, and scenic — a great way to travel between major cities. If you're planning time in Rome, Florence, or Milan before the wedding, you can take a high-speed train to Florence, then drive into the Tuscan countryside from there. Rome to Florence: ~1.5 hours Milan to Florence: ~2 hours Some Tuscan towns are connected by regional trains, but service can be limited in the countryside — so for exploring and attending the wedding, we recommend having a car.
Rental Car
Once you’re ready to head into Tuscany, renting a car is highly recommended. It’s the easiest way to reach the venue, explore the countryside, and get to/from your accommodations. You can rent a car from Rome for a longer scenic drive through central Italy, from Florence for a more direct route into Tuscany, or from any city where your travels take you prior to the wedding. Whichever route you choose, having your own transportation in Tuscany will make things smoother and give you the freedom to enjoy the region at your own pace.
