We recommend to contact your automobile club for various information and maps for your arrival at Florence.

On the Italian highways, on which you have to pay a toll fee, the gasoline stations are open 24 hours a day. On the other streets and in the city the opening hours are as follows: 7.30 am - 12.30 pm and 3.30 pm - 7.30 pm. Outside of these hours you have to go to the self service station where you can pay with 10, 20 or 50 Euro notes.

Garages and parking spaces where you have to pay are easy to find in Florence. Ask for cheaper weekly and monthly fees.

We recommend to ask for the green insurance card at your automobile club and advise you not to leave any articles of value or radios in your cars (insurance for theft).
