  • Join as we head from Florence to Venice by train in this Italy travel vlog which also includes a full apartment tour of our airbnb in Florence as well as the new apartment we stayed at in Venice. Our day was spent killing a bit of time at our favorite pizzeria and small cafe at the train station in Florence before boarding our train. The two hour train ride from Florence to Venice went by quickly and featured some scenic winter views of snow blowing as we zoomed past rural areas. Upon arriving in Venice we checked into our airbnb before picking up our family friend Val who will be joining us for the rest of our travels through Europe.

    Italy Train Travel from Florence to Venice | Apartment Tour of Florence + Venice Video Transcript:
    We're going to give you the apartment tour. So come on in. There is a really long hallway. A corridor.
    A corridor and into here. We have the living room. It was perfectly adequate. I mean we had a small table and four chairs. Tiny little couch. I mean for four people it was a bit cramped. We found the biggest complaint about this place is we felt like we were a little bit on top of each other. You know we were staying here for 6 nights.
    It was a little bit crowded for 4 adults yeah but the views. Right. We chose this place for the views. We need to show you. The views and location were excellent. One more time.
    The views and location were excellent also really appreciated this place had central heating. Because it was cold the entire time we were here. But we were nice and toasty inside. The entire time. If you look over here we had wine glasses and we made good use of those.
    We did all of our cooking here. A little fridge. We had a kettle.
    And the best part I would say the best feature of this of this apartment I should say was that we both had nice big bedrooms.
    Today is another easy travel day. We are only going to take a 2 hour train. Heading to Venice and the nice thing is that we have well I wouldn't say it is so nice but we have a bit of time to kill so that means we can have a bit of a leisurely lunch. Pizza. We're going to go to that pizza place again just because we all like it. It is cheap. It is good and it is actually on the way to the train station.
    So we've tried a few different pizzas here at this place but this is our first time to try the four cheese one. So I'm just going to flip it up. Flip it up.
    And I'll just mention so for the four pizza slices and a couple of drinks we paid 15 Euros. It was a good deal.
    So we arrived with 2 hours to kill. Yes. So we found a little cafe right in the train station. We're all having it does not have the most beautiful train station. Very little seating so we had to find a cafe. Yeah we were lucky to find this one.
    We've got about 5 minutes to wait for our train here. So I thought I'd ask you what did you think of Florence? I think you liked it more than Rome right? Very much more than Rome. Very walkable, the art museums were very not crowded. We didn't feel like cattle in them. We learned from our mistakes we went early. When it first opened.
    Hello from a bakery in Venice. Hello from a bakery in Venice. So we've arrived here. A nice short train ride. We've checked in and we're pekish.
    Because our next transportation day is going to be really really long. Trains and ferries. So I think we'll actually give you a second apartment tour today.
    Apartment tour. Because it is cool. It is cool and we're here. We've got another person joining us on the trip. One of my parents friends Val. She is flying in from BC.
    We're just going to pick her up soon.
    This is the first time we've had an apartment that has been two levels.
    From now on it is going to be 5 travelers. Five of us for the rest of this trip in Europe. That is we're going to sign off because we actually have to get ready to pick her up soon. We'll see you guys on the next one. Thanks for watching. More videos from Venice soon.
    This is part of our Travel in Italy video series showcasing Italian food, Italian culture and Italian cuisine.

    Awesome video! That hot chocolate and cheesecake you had ar Florence train station looked delicious! Was the cheesecake really good? And pizza...wow...Italian pizzas are so good! Waiting for videos of Venice, it's been more than 10 years that I was there, I am very curious to see how the city looks like now.

    • @samuelandaudrey
      @samuelandaudrey  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    What do you guys use for internet while exploring? Or do you just wait until you can find somewhere with free wifi?

    • @samuelandaudrey
      @samuelandaudrey  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We often pre-load Google maps with places we want to visit for the day and it tracks in real-time with or without internet. We should probably get sim cards but we never do.

    First off, even though I was concerned to see Bobby D on the ropes from all that eating, like "The rumble in the pizzeria" flashback, I was conversely stoked to see mom back on the track, "alive and eating" - that loss would have been like "losing the mascot to the enemy"......:-)......but Venice? - Oh man, that is outrageously expensive......is it price-cut during low season?

    • @samuelandaudrey
      @samuelandaudrey  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was pricey even in the off-season and we had the beast from the east to contend with. Basically, snow apocalypse ;)

      For a traveler, It's a great information. And this is the only channel which does it. Over the year they have provided some cool tidbits on when to book, how to get great deals on your Airbnb and more.
      If I am going somewhere I need to know how much the food and accommodation are gonna cost. So in a way, you get to see it through them, which can be a great help while planning your next trip.

    • @samuelandaudrey
      @samuelandaudrey  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We're not getting paid by airbnb. We just thought it would be interesting to see what kind of places you can stay in from city to city.

    • @samuelandaudrey
      @samuelandaudrey  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, what is that?

    • @samuelandaudrey

      Thank you! Another reason we've been doing them is that prices, value and quality can really vary from destination to destination.
