The staff are very friendly and helpful! The A line is wonderful for getting to know different places in the old town. I used this line very intensively for 2 days. I took the B line once, which takes you to the outskirts of Florence so you can also see other parts of the city. However, this bus takes a 15-minute break in Fiesole. I am very grateful for this bus option, as it allowed me to explore Florence very well.

In general, a satisfactory experience. But on Wednesday September 17 we waited for nothing for the first 12:30 bus, which never showed up. Then the 1.30pm bus arrived, and gave no explanation or excuse for this double waiting time in the sun, on the corner of a super busy and noisy street.... but hey, we're in Italy and we're happy about it!!!!

Using the app makes this experience a lot easier. Stops at all the major spots in Florence. The crew make it easy and using the English speaking setting on the bus gives you a perfect run down on all the sites as you pass them. Well worth getting a 2 day pass as there's too much to see in one day

    The possibility of the division of the outer part of the city and the inner part is a great idea and gives the new arrivals a better orientation visit. We had a wonderful time and was able to visit the sites that attracted us the most. Thank you

    Unfortunately, the departure times were never even close to being correct. Even the live tracking didn't help. We had to wait almost an hour and then we couldn't go because the bus was full. Hop on, hop off, as we know it from other cities, is not possible because getting back on is problematic. Too bad, we would have expected more for the price. Good in principle, but there is clearly room for improvement in terms of execution. For us, the goal was missed. We didn't have much time and wanted to see so much. We wasted a lot of time waiting. But the drive out of Florence was super nice.

    An excellent way to get to know the city you are visiting and understand its history. Get off the bus where you want and get back on where you want. We also booked a tour of Rome. It's great!

    We liked it and were impressed by the cathedral in Florence. Unfortunately, the rush of tourists was a bit big and so the waiting time of 2 hours was a bit too long.
