We did the Train to Florence excursion with four hours on our own. Our tour guide was meant to walk us to Cathedral Square to start our free time. Several of our group noticed the toilets as we were leaving the station and asked the guide if we could stop to use them, as the toilets on the train in our area had been locked. She said she did not usually stop there, but agreed to wait. When we went to rejoin the group we found that the guide and most of the group had gone and left at least 6 or 8 people behind - not knowing the meeting place for the return trip to Livorno. We were not impressed and it was only that we saw someone with our tour number later that we found out where to meet in time to catch the return train. No apologies were received from tour guide. We had planned what we wanted to do with our time etc, but unfortunately for us, there was a walking marathon on in Florence with thousands of competitors on the paths and streets. This also meant that buses weren’t running until 1pm. We did however get to visit the Ponte Vecchio Bridge and caught a Hop On Hop Off Bus trip which had a stop at Piazza Michaelangelo to see the fabulous view over Florence. Unfortunately we weren’t able to Hop Off at any stops as the circuit was over an hour and we had to be at the return trip meeting place.
