You’ll want to schedule your flight to arrive into Aeroporto di Firenze-Peretola, formally Amerigo Vespucci Airport (FLR) for the nearest airport, or we can assist with scheduling a train from Rome for an international connection.

For Departure, it would be best to schedule your flight from Leonardo da Vinci International Airport /  Fiumicino Airport (FCO).

Your first stop on this Experience is the Hotel Mulino di Firenze, about 30 minutes from the Florence Airport

The included airport transfers for this Experience will be from Florence Airport to Hotel Mulino di Firenze on May 14, 2026 and a departure from the Donna Camilla Savelli to Rome’s Da Vinci Airport on May 22, 2026

What will the weather be like during our stay?

Offering warm, sunny days with average highs around 22–25°C (72–77°F) and cooler evenings near 12–14°C (54–57°F). The city of Rome enjoys long daylight hours and only occasional spring showers, making it ideal for sightseeing and outdoor dining. Humidity is mild, and the atmosphere is lively as the summer season begins.

What currencies are used Italy?

The currency utilized in Italy is the Euro. The Euro is currently trading at 1.15 USD to 1.00 EUR (an all time high). The Average exchange rate in 2024 was 1.08 USD.

Will I be able to get cash and use credit cards while in Italy? 

You will find that most major credit cards and debits cards are nearly universally accepted in Italy. The same is true of Travelers checks, which should be in Euros to avoid extra exchange rate charges. ATMs are ubiquitous throughout Italy so you will have easy access to cash. It should be noted that American Express is not as widely accepted in Europe as Visa and MasterCard.

How much cash should I bring?

We recommend bringing minimal US dollars, i.e. $75-100, with you and then accessing the local ATM’s upon arriving in Italy. The ATM’s will dispense the local currency and your bank will automatically calculate the exchange rate. Your own bank will typically provide the most favorable exchange rate available to you.

How many meals are included?

A full breakfast will be served each morning as well as a Welcome Dinner and Farewell Dinner. The Garmany Golf Concierge Team can assist with making any reservations and recommendations for additional meals not included in the Experience.
