November Florence Trip

2 Upvotes

Hi all!

I plan to take a trip to florence from Nov 15th-21st. I know there are a lot of protests and strikes going on, so I had a few questions.

1) I see there’s suppose to be a railway strike on the 20th. Does this include the tram in Florence? I am trying to figure out the best way to get to the airport

2) I planned on taking a trip to Bologna and Siena while here. I know Siena may be fine, but should i reconsider going to Bologna? It seems like it’s been a hot spot for these protests and demonstrations

3) I mean obviously anything has the ability to escalate, but is there a serious safety concern associated with these protests? Either from the protesters or police themselves?

Thanks all!

Not from Italy - help with trash recycle

0 Upvotes

Airbnb host wants us to do separate waste collection and deposit in the correct bin. Is this normal to request?

If so, how do I determine where trash besides compost goes? Bathroom trash, yogurt cups, espresso capsules, paper containers. If I put trash in a plastic bag do I empty the trash out of the bag?

I’m an American traveling to Florence for vacation the 4th of November to the 15th. I’ve been to Italy before, to Rome and Naples, and I’ve vacationed across Europe several times over my life. I’m wondering what clubs are good by local recommendations? My favorite city to travel to is Berlin because of Tresor, Kit Kat, and Berghain. I like electronic music, particularly tech house, deep house, techno, and trance.

Also if you have any great local recommendations for restaurants that would also be very helpful to me.

Thank you for any recommendations.

Best place to rent a car?

0 Upvotes

I'm staying in Florence for a few days in April, then renting a car to drive to some other towns in Tuscany, west of Florence. I'm looking for a car rental pick-up location that's outside the ZTL zones, but relatively easy to get to from the center, so I can pick up the car and quickly get on the A11. Any suggestions?

Osteria dell’Enoteca or Trattoria da Tito?

3 Upvotes

Already going to our favorite food, Vine e Vecchi Sapori, but for night two we have Osteria dell’Enoteca booked however our cab driver said go to Trattoria da Tito instead, since we are near there- and the reviews look good. Which would folks prefer?

Restaurant near Piazza della Signoria. Group of ~15. Great food, nice atmosphere, not crazy expensive?

Pick up permesso

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I have to pick up my permesso on the 4th November but I will not be able to do it because I am still on my erasmus and will be back in Jan 2027.

Does anyone have any experience to pick up their permesso after the convocazione date? And what is the maximum date that we have to pick it?

Movie theater in English?

0 Upvotes

This is a very random question, but my husband, baby and I are moving to Florence for a month starting in a few weeks! Unfortunately for me we will be there when Sunrise on the Reaping comes out in theaters. Are there any theaters in Florence that might be showing that move in English?

Have You Visited Galileo’s Middle Finger?

Post image
58 Upvotes

Almost a century after Galileo was laid to rest, an antiquarian and an anatomist removed his middle finger, along with two other fingers and a tooth (why, exactly, is anyone’s guess). The finger was soon handed over to Florence’s Laurentian Library and, eventually, the Museo Galileo, where it is still on display today in an egg-shaped glass case with a marble base. A commemorative inscription by astronomer Tommaso Perelli reads: “Spurn not the remains of the finger by which the right hand measured out paths of the sky, pointed to orbs never before seen by mortals.” In 2009, Galileo’s middle finger had a heartwarming reunion with his newly authenticated index finger, thumb, and tooth.

It’s tough to tell because it seems to be mostly warm in the afternoons and pretty chilly at night. What would you guys recommend bringing? Limited carry on space.
