Florence Disabled Access And Wheelchair Accessibility Review By Sage Traveling

Visiting Florence with a disability has never been easier than with Sage Traveling. We take care of everything to provide you with a fully-accessible Florence vacation!

Houston, TX (prHWY.com) February 1, 2013 - Florence is a great city for disabled tourists to visit. The city has numerous things to see and do and is not nearly as spread out and hilly as Rome. Florence wheelchair accessible accommodation is cheaper than in Rome and Venice, and several of the attractions are free to disabled tourists. From Florence, you can easily take a day trip by train to nearby cities in Tuscany such as Pisa and Siena.

Disabled Access in Florence - Best Aspects

* Small city size with lots to see - Most of the tourist attractions in Florence are concentrated in the center of the city within walking/rolling distance of each other. In most cases, disabled travelers will not have to find accessible transportation to get around town. Nearly the entire city center is filled with Renaissance architecture so even moving between attractions is time well spent.

* Free admission at the Uffizi Gallery and Accademia - The two most popular museums in Florence, the Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia provide free admission to a disabled guest and one companion. When you make your reservation be sure to mention that you are disabled.

* Flat city center - The city center of Florence doesn't have any hills. By the city center, I am referring to the area between the Accademia in the north, the Ponte Vecchio in the south, the Santa Maria Novella train station in the west, and the Santa Croce church in the east.

* Several wheelchair accessible hotel options - Inside the city center there are several wheelchair accessible hotels that you can choose from. They range from affordable to luxurious, and are within walking/rolling distance of all the major tourist attractions.

Disabled Access in Florence - Most Challenging Aspects

* obblestones and paving stones - Most parts of the Florence city center have small cobblestones or large paving stones which can be challenging for wheelchair users and other disabled tourists. The video below some of the more uneven large paving stones found in the city center. Some areas near the Accademia and near the train station have paved streets and sidewalks.

* Hills on the south side - On the south side of the Arno river, you'll find the Pitti Palace, the great views from the Piazzale Michelangelo, and some big hills. This area is the most challenging are for Florence wheelchair access.

* Crowded museums need reservations - The Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia are small museums that are enormously popular with Florence tourists. You need to make a reservation beforehand so you don't have to wait in the line.
