My family are going to spend christmas in Florence this year, any advice? How far is Venice from florence?

There is a nice christmas market in Florence in one of the old train stations. During the Christmas season here, most or all of the cities have very good exhibitions of Presepi (nativity scenes) that you should look for. There will also be Christmas season concerts. Ribollita is particularly nice on a cold day - many restaurants have this typical Tuscan soup, but it will vary from place to place. I went to Florence for lunch last Sunday for the Ribollita. You should also definitely try the Fiorentina.





Rome is about 1 hr 40 min on the fast trains. Venice is about 2 hr 40 min. You'll be able to find specific schedules and prices here when the winter schedule is released: http://www.ferroviedellostato.it/homepag鈥?/a> There's a small, but nice Christmas market in Campo San Stefano in Venice.My family are going to spend christmas in Florence this year, any advice? How far is Venice from florence?
The distance from Florence to Venice is about 277 kilometers (172 miles) 3 hours by car, you have to cross a stretch of the Apennines between Florence and Bologna, which is not very good at street level it's all highway. However there are two beautiful cities in Tuscany to eat well is among the most good at gastronomiche.E say that Venice is ';wonderful'; advice to do a nice gondola ride. I recommend to visit Sirmione, Lake Garda is located at 157 kilometers (97 miles) poor two-hour drive but well worth it.

It takes about 2.5 hours to drive from Venice to Florence unless there's heavy traffic.


If youa re traveling by Train


The fastest and the most comfortable and the best train from Venice to Florence is the Euro Star. You can buy tickets from any travel agent in Venice or buy them at the train station. First or second class. All seats are reserved.
You can ask this to the hotel management that you are going to stay in Florance and I advise you to stay at Hotel Ducale in Venice. Don't foget to buy three Venice Calenders (one for you, one for your boy friend and for your best friend) and a Mask.





And one more thing don't eat too much pizza, afterwards you have to buy a bigger size swimming suit before summer :)
Florence' s beautiful during christmas.. Probably won't be snow..Venice is in another ';place';( I don't know right word!!)..


If she takes train, she will lose 3-4 hours I think..I'm italian, sorry for my english..
For Christmas, I suggest Firenze. If you need any helps, write me.


Venezia is far about 250 km. (more than 3 hours by car)
