Florence is an amazing city, and what makes it even better is its proximity to other sights that make for great daytrips.  During my last trip to Italy, we stayed the longest in Florence, where we were able to take some time to relax and enjoy the city, but also venture out to other places nearby.

I shared some of my favorites in this guest post “Three Easy Daytrips from Florence” for Cross-Pollinate, all of which can be done using public transportation – an added bonus.  Check it out and leave a comment below with your favorite places to visit near Florence.
