About this tour
This guided transfer whisks you from Livorno port to Florence and Pisa, giving you breathing room to explore both cities on your own schedule. You'll spend roughly three and a half hours wandering Florence's Renaissance core—think the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, and Piazza della Signoria—before heading south to Pisa for 75 minutes at the Piazza dei Miracoli. The whole experience runs eight hours, timed to sync with your cruise ship departure.

What to expect
You'll board a coach at the agreed meeting point (allow 10–15 minutes buffer before departure) and settle in for the drive to Florence. Once there, you've got a solid block of unsupervised time to cover the essentials—the cathedral complex, the old bridge, the main square—at your own pace, with the option to browse the Central Market or grab a coffee. In the afternoon you'll drive to Pisa, where the famous piazza awaits. You'll have just over an hour to photograph the Tower, wander the grounds and take in the Baptistery and Cathedral before the coach collects you for the return to port. Expect a lot of ground covered on foot.
Good to know
Bring comfortable walking shoes; this tour demands considerable legwork. The schedule flexes to match your ship's timetable, so contact the team if your cruise itinerary changes. Hotel pickups aren't included, nor is food—plan accordingly. Guests with mobility issues should reconsider; unsuitable for those with walking difficulties.
