Private Transfer from Florence Airport toHotel Santa Maria Novella

Private Transfer from Florence Airport (Peretola) to Hotel Santa Maria Novella

Overview

Arriving at Florence Airport (Peretola) and heading to Hotel Santa Maria Novella? A private transfer is the most comfortable way to begin your time in Florence. Instead of queuing for a taxi or riding the tram with your bags, a professional, English-speaking driver meets you in the arrivals hall, helps with your luggage and drives you directly to the door of Hotel Santa Maria Novella in Piazza Santa Maria Novella.

Florence's own airport (Amerigo Vespucci), just northwest of the city. Every transfer includes real-time flight monitoring, meet & greet, luggage assistance and a fixed, all-inclusive fare — a genuine door-to-door service with no meter and no hidden charges.

Why Choose a Private Transfer

Public options from Florence each have drawbacks: the tram to the centre means managing luggage and a final walk, the taxi rank can queue at peak times, and ride-sharing is limited in Florence. A private transfer removes all of that — one fixed price, a guaranteed driver and a direct ride to Hotel Santa Maria Novella.

Florence's ZTL & Door-to-Door Access

Almost all of central Florence lies inside a strict ZTL (limited-traffic zone), where unauthorised vehicles are automatically fined. Our NCC-licensed fleet is pre-registered for ZTL access, which means we can bring you right to Hotel Santa Maria Novella without the fines or restrictions that affect ordinary cars and many out-of-town taxis — a genuine door-to-door service through the historic centre.
