Firenze (Florence) is a city in Italy.

A small hint about Firenze

There are many bars in the city but most real expensive. For cheaper bars cross the river seperating the center to the less touristic side and walk around the piazza santo spirito to find many bars which are cheaper and filled with young Italian people. A bar in which they have drinks and coffee for normal prizes, cantains a small library and is guest to live musician and cool shows every night is LaCité, Libreriacafé at the via de Borgo San Frediano 20r. Also if you need a place to sleep visitors here are freely enough to give you one if you ask nice.

Hitching out

North, to Bologna

Untested, but the other side of the autogrill listed for going south should have plenty of traffic going north past Firenze.

South, to Rome, Napoli

Guaka and amylin were dropped at a good motorway entry south from Firenze. You might be able to get here with bus no 36 or 37. You can stand underneath a bridge, way before the usual big sign saying "NO autostop".

There is a great autogrill on the A1 southeast of the city near the town of Antella, lots of cars and trucks going south. Take bus 23 from 'Via Della Dogana' to the last stop in Antella (be careful there is a 23A and a 23B and only one goes to Antella). From here you can walk about a kilometer or take bus 48B to 'Peruzzi 04.' You can also catch bus 48B all the way from 'Rodiclico,' but the bus only runs a few times a day, so check the schedule. You can see the autogrill from the 'Peruzzi 04' stop. There is a fence, but the gate was unlocked. If you choose to walk then just stay on the main road that goes through the north part of town along the A1 until you get to the autogrill (just follow the 48B route). The road doesn't have a side walk, but there isn't much traffic. You'll go up a hill as you exit the town, the autogrill is at the top of the hill. If you want to go north there is also an autogrill on the other side of the A1 here. There is a road that takes you under the A1 to the other side. Trewge found a ride to Rome almost instantly.

West, to Pisa

When hiking to Pisa, try to go by motorway Firenze-Mare, which you can reach by going to the airport. Don't go by the federal road, there are no petrol stations and lots of "No autostop" signs.
