Florence S.M.N. Train Station Limo Transfer
Not for the faint-hearted. |
A limo transfer service is often a necessity when getting off a train at the station in Florence and wanting to check in at the hotel.
The Florence Santa Maria Novella (S.M.N.) Train Station is one of the main transportation hubs in the country. Situated in the city center, it is very conveniently located, but it is also a somewhat chaotic place to navigate for the inexperienced traveler (more on this below). Our Florence train station limousine transfers connect the SMN station with virtually all destinations. Transfers to the station/station pickups start at only 59/79 Euros! |
Florence train station limo pickups can be a bit difficult. Not only do travellers have to carry their luggage off the train and around the station, but -due to increased security- drivers can't access the platforms for meet and greet service, so passengers will be instructed by us on an exact meet & greet point in the station where driver will be waiting with sign. Furthermore, given the limited street parking, occasionally, driver might not be able to find a parking space and will have to wait outside in the vehicle (getting towed would pretty much beat the purpose!).
Travellers should therefore be familiar with operating their cell phone in Italy to contact driver if need be. In general the main train stations in Italy are better suited for active people, used to travelling abroad, who don't mind handling their own luggage and are familiar with making/receiving calls with their cell phone when abroad. Senior travellers who can't manage their own luggage and are not familiar with operating their phone when abroad should think about using a door-to-door limo transfer instead of using the train at all. The extra cost will pay for itself in terms of piece of mind.
