Once at the Florence train station (Firenze Santa Maria Novella), there are cabs waiting outside to take you to our hotel Palazzo Castri. It’s an 8-minute ride and ~15 euros.
It’s a 48-minute and ~90 euro ride to the Milan train station (Milano Centrale)
Cabs all take Visa cards so there’s no need to worry about getting out euros. Please note your American Express card will not be accepted throughout Europe. Ubers are not as commonly available in Italy other than in Rome.

You’ll need to be in Florence and checked into our hotel “Palazzo Castri” by Saturday 10/21 at 5 pm for the tour kickoff dinner that night.
Please notify Julie IMMEDIATELY via Whatsapp if you are experiencing any travel delays on your way to Italy.
Early Arrival
Our tour officially starts at the Saturday night kickoff dinner at 6 pm at our Florence Hotel.
If you’d like to arrive before our tour starts on Saturday night 10/21, we have a block of rooms on reserve at our Florence hotel Palazzo Castri for Friday 10/20 under “Julie Hartigan Group, Arranged by Greta Guercini at S-Cape”.
The rooms range from 360-390 euros per night but the hotel has agreed to give us a 10% discount AND to try to arrange so that you won’t need to switch to a new room for Sat 10/21 and Sun 10/22 while you’re there as part of the tour. Note: that is not guaranteed depending on the hotel room arrangements.
WHAT TO DO:
Please email Teresa and Stefania at welcome@palazzocastri.com to request your early arrival room in the “Julie Hartigan Group Block” for 10/20 at a 10% discount.
cc juliehartigan@gmail.com & greta.guercini@s-cape.it so we can make SURE you’re well taken care of!
If you want another hotel option for early arrival, the Hotel Caravaggio is RIGHT next door to our Florence Hotel Palazzo Castri. It’s a 3-star vs a 4-star hotel so their rooms are a lot less expensive ($200-$240 per night) if you just want a place to crash or if Palazzo Castri is booked.

You can also choose to stay for additional time in Florence, take the train to Rome for a flight back home, or book optional, additional 2-day trips to Venice, Bologna, or Rome to extend your time in Italy.

Trip Insurance
Please note that it’s mandatory that you obtain a minimum of $100K coverage for international medical insurance before joining us in Tuscany so we’ll be able to provide you with emergency medical care abroad if something happens to you while you’re on the trip with us.
The last thing anyone wants to think about when planning a vacation is anything that could prevent them from traveling! But a lost bag or passport, needing to cancel your trip last minute and losing your money, or getting sick can be stressful and expensive.
I’ve partnered with IMG to provide you with a great trip insurance option if you don’t already have one. They come highly recommended by my friend’s women’s adventure travel company which has been using them for a decade now.
With IMG’s iTravelInsured® travel protection plans, you can enjoy peace of mind knowing you have protection for your prepaid, nonrefundable trip costs in addition to 24/7 global assistance services (including excellent medical coverage) to support you while you’re away from home. There are multiple iTravelInsured plans available (Lite, SE, LX, and GT) with varying coverages and benefit levels to suit your lifestyle and budget.
Download the PDF linked below to learn more about what each plan includes and you can book directly from the link below. If you’re interested in purchasing a plan or have additional questions you can reach out directly to your very own personal agent, Alex DeJesus at Alex.DeJesus@imglobal.com.
Spa Treatments
Spa Time in Florence
Our trip planners booked out the ENTIRE spa at our Florence Hotel Palazzo Castri for just our group on Monday October 23rd from 2:30 – 4pm. The spa will also be open and available to you the entire time you’re staying in Florence (some of you are arriving early) but does require a reservation at the front desk so it doesn’t get overcrowded. The spa has a whirlpool, sauna, steam room, etc that’s included in your stay but if you’d like a massage you can add that on too.
Your best times for optional spa treatments or massages will be Saturday afternoon 10/21 when you arrive and check-in OR early Monday afternoon 10/23 before or instead of your optional Duomo climb.
Additional Treatments at the Thermal Spa
On Thursday, October 26th we’ll all be visiting the beautiful Terme de Rapoleno between 9am and 2 pm including time to grab lunch. The thermal baths are included as part of your tour but if you’d like to book any additional spa treatments or massages you can do that too!
Packing List
Note: We’ll be moving around quite a bit throughout Tuscany so please pack as lightly as you can so your bag is easy for you to handle!
Be sure to check your airline’s bag check policy and weight limits and test your bag on your bathroom scale or with a luggage scale before you go.
Leave room for the goodies you’ll be bringing back with you too! You can even pack a small light duffle inside your main bag to bring back gifts and souvenirs.
Comfortable Shoes Only
I can’t emphasize this enough! Florence and Tuscan towns are known for their hills, steps, and cobblestones. A cute pair of white sneakers or super comfy flat black boots will work with anything you wear.
Layers!
The temps in Florence and Tuscany will range from 65-70 degrees by day and drop to 50 – 52 at night. Be sure to carry a light sweater, hoodie, or light jacket for the temperature shifts
A Light Tote Bag or Backpack
For some days of the tour, we’ll be out and about for much of the day so having a roomy but light bag will be helpful to carry what you need with you.
A Scarf or Wrap
Handy on freezing cold flights, in air-conditioned places, to cover your shoulders if you enter a church and they require it.
Your Bathing Suit
All our hotels have pools or spas to soak in AND we’ll be visiting a special indoor/outdoor Thermal Spa too – no need to bring towels
Medications & If You’re Prone to Car Sickness
Be sure to bring any OTC medications you rely on for headaches, allergies, etc, and of course your prescriptions if you have any. If you’re prone to car sickness bring some Sea Bands or Dramamine – the beautiful Tuscan countryside is filled with windy, hilly backroads
Chargers and European Converters/Power Adapter
Be sure to pick up European/Italy converters for your cell phone charger. Note that your hair dryer/flat iron/curling irons will NOT work with a power adapter (they often blow out!) Our hotels all have hair dryers and if you like you can pick up an inexpensive European travel flat or curling iron on Amazon.
Optional: One FUN Outfit or Dress
You can dress really comfortably and casually for just about all of our tour although Italians do tend to dress more urban street-smart (think a visit to NYC). The final celebration dinner is at a posh resort and is all about celebrating YOU so if you like bring a fun but comfortable dress for that night!
Pro Packing Tips
My favorite packing move when I travel for weeks in Europe is to bring one comfortable dress and tights per day plus a jacket that goes with it all. Europeans tend to wear less athleisure than Americans so it also helps you blend right in like a local. And fewer choices of outfits will streamline things for you.
If you prefer pants opt for darker-colored pants and plan to re-wear them several times with different tops to make your life easier! (Promise – nobody will notice!)
Packing cubes are fantastic to help you stay super organized in your luggage as you go from place to place. And don’t forget – you WILL want to shop so leave room in your luggage! The styles in Italy are so fun and clothing is much less expensive than in the US so it’s a great opportunity to treat yourself to some fun new things.
Don’t Forget
Credit Cards & Cash
Your American Express Card won’t be accepted in Italy so be sure to travel with a Visa which will be accepted everywhere, including in taxis. You can use your ATM card at the airport or as we travel to take out Euros so no need to worry about that before arriving. You may want to notify your bank that you’ll be traveling internationally so they don’t think it’s suspicious card activity.
International Cell Service
Be sure to contact your cellular service provider for an unlimited international plan for the time you’ll be traveling. Let your loved ones know to contact you over Whatsapp while you’re away – it’s the most reliable for texts and calls. We’ll be sure to share wifi logins at all of our tour stops so you can stay as connected as possible
