How to go from Mantua to Florence, IT
I have looked at some train sites, but am unable to figure out if there is a direct train from Mantua to Florence.
Is there a train? Does it have to go through Verona? Is there a bus? We don't want to drive. Thanks

A quick glance at trenitalia.com had many choices between Mantua (Mantova) and Florence (Firenze), all requiring at least one change of train, usually at Bologna or Modena. The shortest trip was 2 hrs 30 mins, most a bit longer.

Use www.bahn.de or www.trenitalia.com to get connections from Mantova to Firenze. You have to change at Modena and/or Bologna.
Mantova is a beautiful old town, but few foreign tourists go there, for some reason.
