🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
Find train tickets →Prato Centrale train station (Piazza Stazione) → Piazza del Comune (stop: 'Duomo')
💡 From the 'Duomo' stop, it's a 3-minute walk downhill to Paggerie Medicee. Buy the 90-minute ticket (€1.50 at tabacchi or the train station newsstand) or use the 'Tabnet' app—cash not accepted on board. Avoid the 02:00 Sunday bus; it rarely shows.
Florence Airport (FLR) or Prato train station → Paggerie Medicee (Via del Carmine)
💡 Flat rate from FLR to Prato is about €45–50 (confirm before starting). For train station pick-ups, call +39 0574 6666—there's a taxi rank outside Prato Centrale but they often vanish after 21:00. Ask the driver to drop you at the back gate on Via del Carmine, saves walking through the courtyard.
Florence Santa Maria Novella (SMN) → Prato Centrale
💡 Get a 'Regionale' ticket from the machine (avoid Frecciarossa—it doesn't stop at Prato). Alight at Prato Centrale, then it's a 12-minute walk or local bus to Paggerie Medicee. Validate your ticket in the yellow box before boarding or you'll risk a fine.
Florence Airport (FLR) → Piazza del Duomo, Prato (via Prato train station)
💡 Buy tickets at the airport tabacchi or online—no cash on board. The bus can be crowded with commuters; sit on the left for castle views after Campi Bisenzio.
