Your destination: Fortezza da Basso

One way · 2 adults · All service hours · Totals for your whole group

The Fortezza stop is 23 minutes from the airport, two stops past Alamanni, with Lavagnini–Fortezza two minutes later on the north side; both are on the through runs to San Marco, not the trams that terminate at Unità. The T1 shares the Fortezza stop for Careggi and Scandicci. The fortress sits on the ring of viali itself, so ask before assuming the EUR 28 fare applies to an address beside it.
