[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again - yes, I agree with everyone saying train is way better. I agree. I have gone over the price difference, time difference, mentioned business/first class on train. He still insists on a private car. He thinks lugging his luggage around on the trains will “be a hassle”. I’ve given up and not going to try and argue anymore. He said he’d pay for the car![/quote]

I have done private cars in Italy. The drivers are f’ing crazy. 175 kph 10’ off the bumper of the car in front of you. It’s a white knuckle ride and you will see 2-3 trains passing you while on the highway.

Most of the private cars are smaller vs what you have in US. So not much room for luggage or passengers. No stops 3 and 1/2 hours. With stops and lunch the drive will be 5-8 hours. It is expensive and the bigger car cost more.

Go by train! Get Bagaglio Facile (Easy Luggage) is Trenitalia's service with partner Zyppy for door-to-door luggage delivery in Italy, picking up from/delivering to your hotel. Great for Frecce train travelers. Have to booking via Zyppy with your PNR. No carrying bags on crowded trains.

You can also use Moveolux. They offer greeters who meet you at the platform or curbside in Florence (SMN) and arrange for porters to handle your luggage to your car or seat.

You have to talk sense in to the man. Why waste your limited time on a highway?
