Practical tips
- Taxis mainly serve transfers to the Poggibonsi and Certaldo railway stations (trains to Firenze and Siena).
- Licences are few: in high season book in advance, including through your hotel.
- For longer transfers (Firenze or Pisa airports) an NCC (licensed chauffeur/private hire service) with an agreed fare is a better option.
