While we spent most of our time in Rome, we decided to dedicate just one day trip for Florence.
Nothing against those spend one day trying to cover as many cities in a week in one country let alone across Europe, but I am personally not a fan of doing it. Heck we already spent 4 full days in Rome and still missed out on a lot of things.
Also, that would be impossible to do with my parents, and the many bags we’d have to carry around.
Thus, in our minds, Florence was the most feasible day trip from Rome given it won’t take us more than 2 hours to reach this Tuscan city.
