Choose a slower or connecting train

An unforgettable journey to discover Pisa Tower

Review by Federica Sciori

I took one of the many regional trains that connect Florence to Pisa in less than an hour. In particular, my train was a fast-regional train bound for Grosseto.

Departing from Firenze Santa Maria Novella

Florence main train station has recently been equipped with an entrance gate where Trenitalia staff check if passengers have a valid ticket for one of the departing trains. Remember that regional train tickets are valid for 4 hours from the time stamped on them. If you have a few spare hours before taking your train, you can either relax in one of Trenitalia and Italo lounges or go shopping in the new shopping centre at the basement level.

On the regional train

The Florence to Pisa route is one of the most used regional routes in Italy and is served by 45 daily trains in both directions. My fast-regional train was clean and comfortable, and the journey was quite smooth.

Arriving at Pisa Centrale

I reached my destination in less than an hour. If your final destination is Pisa Airport, you’ll find many signs for the Pisa Mover, the shuttle that connects the train station to the airport. If you’re stopping in Pisa, instead, you can walk around the city or take one of the local buses. If you take the bus, I suggest you buy your tickets from one of the kiosks located at the station entrance to avoid paying more when onboard.

If you want to get to the Leaning Tower of Pisa and Piazza dei Miracoli (Square of Miracles), take the bus ‘n.1.’ The bus stop is opposite the train station and can be easily found thanks to the available signs. If you’re in a rush, you can always take one of the taxis on the left-hand side of the station.

The journey

Tuscany, Florence and Pisa in particular are the most loved destinations by tourists all over the world, and for good reason. A cheap, easy and fast journey you need to make at least once in your life. Discover more about regional trains in Italy and enjoy the beauties of Tuscany, including San Gimignano and Siena.
