Airport Transfers to the Tuscan Countryside: Florence, Pisa & Rome
Arriving in Tuscany with luggage, maybe children, and a villa somewhere down a white gravel road is exactly when you don’t want to be picking up a rental car. Here is how private airport transfers to the countryside around Siena and Casole d’Elsa work, and which airport to choose.
Which airport should you fly into?
For a villa near Siena, Casole d’Elsa or Chianti, three airports are realistic:
- Florence (FLR) — the closest, roughly 70–80 minutes to the villas around Casole d’Elsa. Usually the best choice.
- Pisa (PSA) — about 90 minutes, often with more budget and international flights.
- Rome Fiumicino (FCO) — further (around 3 to 3.5 hours) but worth it if the flights or timing suit, and easy to combine with a stop.
If you’re deciding, the rule of thumb is simple: fly into whichever gives you the best flight, and let the drive be someone else’s problem.
How a private transfer works
A good transfer removes every small stress of arrival:
- I track your flight, so if you land late the pick-up simply moves with it — waiting time is included.
- I meet you at arrivals with a name sign and help with the luggage.
- Up to 8 passengers with luggage travel in one white Mercedes Vito — no squeezing into two taxis.
- Child seats are provided free; just tell me the ages.
- Tolls, fuel and parking are included, and you settle at the end by card, PayPal or cash.

The last stretch to a Tuscan villa is often a narrow, unmarked country road. Arriving with someone who knows exactly where it is turns a stressful hour into the first pleasant one of your holiday.
