How many days do you need in Florence?
4 days is the right length for a first trip to Florence. That covers the Duomo and its climb, the Uffizi and the Accademia, the Oltrarno and a sunset at Piazzale Michelangelo. With fewer days you see the highlights at a brisk pace; with more, add a day trip to Siena, Pisa or the Chianti hills.
