Travel to Tuscany

Passports

Please make sure that you have a passport that is valid until December 2026. Italy requires that all visitors have a passport that is valid at least 6 months beyond your date of departure!

Getting to Florence

Our Welcome Party will be hosted in Florence and it is the closest major city to the wedding venue. You can fly directly into FLR, which usually requires a layover in another major European city.

Alternate cities to fly into then train to Florence:

  • Pisa: 1 hour train

  • Rome: 1.5 hour train

  • Bologna: 1 hour train

  • Milan: 3 hour train

Florence is a very walkable city, so once you’re here you’ll be able to get around easily!

Getting to & from the Venue

Il Borgo di Vignamaggio is located in Greve in Chianti, about 20 miles from Florence.

Transportation for the ceremony will be provided from La Pensione hotel in neighboring Panzano in Chianti.

While transportation will be provided from La Pensione to Il Borgo di Vignamaggio, you may privately book a car or driver from your chosen accommodation. Return transportation to La Pensione will also be provided at the end of the night.

To get from Florence to La Pensione hotel you can:

  • Bus: Take the 365A line from the Montelungo stop in Florence towards Ferruzzi and get off at Panzano P.za Campana. Only an hour long ride, this is an easy, well priced option.

  • Rent a car: This is a great option if you plan to spend time exploring other parts of Tuscany or Italy!

  • Hire a driver: Search for “NCC in Florence” to find a driver, ask your hotel to set it up, or use a service such as Blacklane.

Please note: Uber is not available in Panzano. If you are not staying at La Pensione and using provided transportation, planning in advance is highly encouraged.
