Florence - Taxis from Santa Maria Novella Station - by Jill

I was in Florence today to inspect some new properties and am now definitely convinced that there are no signs directing you to the taxi stand. On my previous visits I have only ever discovered it by walking around the outskirts of the station until I found it, always arriving at the end of the very long queue -- so for anybody arriving by train in Florence in need of a taxi -- don't go to the exit to the left of the right, but go directly ahead through the ticket selling area and make a left at the road -- it appears that everybody getting off the train takes a taxi, so don't waste time!
