Travel Note

Airport Information

Amerigo Vespucci Airport (FLR) is located in Florence, only 30 minutes away from Villa Merlo Nero. There are no nonstop flights from the USA, but there are plenty of transfers to/from major European cities. Flights are usually cheapest into and out of Rome (FCO or CIA). There are plenty of daily trains between Rome and Florence. Trains are reasonably priced (20-50 Euro) and take less than two hours.

Train

Trainline

If you are trying to get to Florence, or looking to explore Italy before or after the wedding, we've liked using Trainline to book.
