Find a Travel Companion
in Florence
The birthplace of the Renaissance, where every church holds a masterpiece and every trattoria serves a meal you will remember forever.
Travel better in Florence with the right person
Split costs
A solo traveller in Florence spends about ~$65–105 USD a day. Accommodation, transport, guided tours and day trips all cost less split two ways.
Stay safer
A travel companion means someone knows your plans, can help navigate emergencies, and makes you less of a target in unfamiliar areas of Florence.
Go deeper
The best experiences in Florence (the off-menu restaurant, the dawn hike, the local's favourite spot) are found with a curious companion, not a guidebook.
Matched by style
Roammate filters by travel pace, budget range, and interests, so you connect with someone genuinely compatible, not just whoever's in the same hostel dorm.

Worth agreeing on before you meet
Coffee at the Bar
Stand at the bar for €1–1.50 espresso. Sitting at a table can cost €3–5 for the same coffee. Order "un caffè" for espresso. Cappuccino is a morning-only drink, and ordering one after 11am reveals you as a tourist.
Bistecca Rules
Bistecca alla fiorentina is always Chianina beef, always at least 3cm thick, always served rare (al sangue). It is priced by weight (€45–60/kg) and shared between two. Do not ask for it well-done, as the waiter may refuse.
Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Florence travel guide.
