I’ve taken plenty of trains around Italy, but the Florence to Pisa train journey stands out for its ease, scenery, and timeless charm. If you’re chasing that classic photo with the Leaning Tower or looking for a peaceful escape from Florence’s energy, this route delivers. Here’s exactly how I did it and how you can, too.
The historic buildings in the Piazza dei Miracoli with the Leaning Tower of Pisa and Duomo in the background.
Route overview
Traveling from Florence to Pisa by train is one of the quickest and most scenic ways to connect two of Tuscany’s gems. The ride is about an hour, covering roughly 85 kilometers of countryside filled with cypress trees, rustic villas, and little hilltop towns. I boarded at Firenze Santa Maria Novella and arrived at Pisa Centrale, both of which are centrally located and easy to navigate. If you’re wondering the best way to get from Florence to Pisa, the train wins for convenience, speed, and that dreamy Tuscan window view.
Transportation experience
I booked my Florence to Pisa train on Omio the night before, and it took less than 5 minutes. I had several departure times to choose from, and the prices were super budget-friendly. If you’re deciding between the train and the bus from Florence to Pisa, here’s my take: the bus takes longer and isn’t as comfortable. Trains leave more often, run on time, and let you glide right through the Tuscan countryside with a cappuccino in hand.
Departure station
Firenze Santa Maria Novella is Florence’s main station, a short walk from the Duomo. It’s modern and organized, and it has plenty of cafés and bakeries if you want to grab something before boarding. I got there 20 minutes early, which gave me time to find my platform without rushing. Pisa Centrale is about a 20-minute walk from the Leaning Tower (or a short bus or taxi ride). The station itself is easy to exit and has clear signage.
Schedule & frequency
Trains run frequently, at least every 30 minutes throughout the day. I caught a late morning regional train that took just over an hour. If you’re planning your day, know that the best time to travel is mid-morning to avoid rush hour and still have plenty of daylight to explore Pisa.
Onboard experience & services
I rode in second class on a Trenitalia regional train, and honestly, it was more comfortable than I expected. The seats were wide, clean, and had plenty of legroom. No assigned seating on my train, so I snagged a window spot. There’s no Wi-Fi, but I just downloaded a podcast ahead of time. The real highlight? The views. Tuscany is even prettier from a train window: olive groves, sunflower fields, and terracotta-roofed towns. It felt like watching a moving postcard. Note that on Trenitalia, regional trains do not have onboard food. You can, however, bring luggage on board for free (no strict size or weight limit), but you are expected to keep bags from blocking aisles or seats.
Ticketing advice & budget breakdown
Book early if you want more time options, but even same-day fares are affordable. I paid €9.90 for a one-way regional ticket on Trenitalia.
| Item | Cost (eur) |
|---|---|
| Ticket price | €9.90 |
| Food & drinks | €4 |
| Travel to departure station | € |
| Travel from arrival station | €1.50 |
| Total | € 15.4 |
Top tips & recommendations
- Sit on the left side of the train from Florence for the best views.
- Bring water or a snack, as regional trains don’t have a café car.
- If you plan to return the same day, book a return ticket ahead of time (or keep the Omio app handy).
- Don’t worry if your ticket says “unreserved.” You can just hop on and sit where you like.
Conclusion
Taking the train from Florence to Pisa is an easy, scenic way to enjoy a bit of Tuscan life. It’s quick, affordable, and full of little moments that make the journey just as enjoyable as the destination. I’d definitely choose it again, especially for a relaxed day out.

The toilet was easy to use and the conductor checked me in a friendly manner. I didn't have to change trains and travelled through. Power sockets were available. The seats were also comfortable, although they can't really be too bad on a one-hour journey.
Advantages

InternetAs I work from my laptop and mobile phone, the internet connection is an important criterion.

rude staffI had some orientation-related problems and asked the staff. The man spoke very poor English and couldn't help me any further. Fortunately, I met another passenger who spoke German and was able to help me. I thought it was great that the train was at least on time. I had my own seat with good netting and very comfortable cushioning. Still, it was only enough for 4 stars.
Advantages
WarmDisadvantages
The journey was flawlessThe trip took place in December last year. It was a very cold day. I was all the more relieved when I got on the heated train, which was also on time. I didn't want to do that to myself by car in weather like this. In hindsight, booking the one-hour train journey was a good decision. The train was nice and warm, clean and cosy.
Advantages

DelayUnfortunately, the train was very late. About half an hour to be precise. When the train left, I only remember positive experiences. It was very cosy and everything was nice and clean. There was also good wifi and stable mobile phone reception. I seem to remember very calm and relaxed passengers. So I was able to relax a bit. There was no need to change trains. 4 stars.
Advantages

Advantages
HygieneDisadvantages
No weaknessesThe journey was very pleasant. The toilets and sanitary facilities were very hygienic and clean. The staff were also very friendly and helpful at all times. The train was very punctual and my journey took just under an hour. The price for the ticket on the website was very fair and everything went smoothly. To summarise, a connection worth recommending.

PunctualityAir conditioningDisadvantages
No 1st classCondition of the railway stations in PisaOld trainsI took the regional trains RV 4031 and RE 18369 from Florence Central Station via Pisa Centrale to Pisa S. Rossore, from where the famous Leaning Tower can be reached quickly on foot. However, this was in much better shape than the badly battered railway stations in Pisa. The trains were also old and noisy. There was also no 1st class, which I could have used with my Interrail ticket. At least the air conditioning worked and the trains were clean and punctual, so I only travelled for 1:11 hours. I didn't see any wifi or power sockets.
Advantages
Very cleanDisadvantages
PunctualityWIFII was able to gather both positive and negative impressions during the trip. The positives include the hygiene in the toilets and in the seating area and the politeness and competence of the three members of staff. The negative points include the fact that the train was a whopping 17 minutes late and that the wifi and reception were not really fast. Recommendation.
