Selected pickup city: Florence
Florence's historic center is one of the most walkable in Italy and largely closed to outside traffic through its ZTL zone, so a rental car here is really for reaching Tuscany's countryside — Chianti, Siena, San Gimignano — rather than the city itself. Most visitors pick up a car on the way out of town, not for use within it.
The Duomo, Uffizi, and Ponte Vecchio are all within the pedestrian core and not reachable by car in practice. Once outside the city, the Chianti wine region's rolling hills between Florence and Siena are the classic Tuscan driving territory, dotted with hilltop towns and vineyards.
South through Chianti to Siena takes about an hour and a half if you take the scenic SR222 (the Chiantigiana) rather than the faster highway. West, San Gimignano's medieval towers are a similar distance, and both can be combined into a longer day trip through Tuscany's countryside.
Never drive into Florence's ZTL zone without confirmed access — the cameras issue fines automatically and rental companies pass these on with an added fee, so park in a garage outside the restricted area instead. Tuscan country roads are narrow and winding in the hills, so allow more time than GPS estimates suggest, especially around harvest season traffic in autumn.
