About this tour
Depart Livorno and spend nine hours exploring two of Italy's greatest art cities. Your private group travels by air-conditioned coach to Pisa, where you'll see the Leaning Tower and the cathedral complex, then heads to Florence for a guided tour of Renaissance landmarks. Skip-the-line entry to the Accademia Gallery lets you stand before Michelangelo's David without the queue. A local expert guide walks you through the city's main piazzas and churches, with time to find lunch at a spot your driver knows.

What to expect
Your driver collects you from the ship and drives you to Pisa, where you'll have time to photograph the tilted tower and walk the cathedral piazza. You'll then travel to Florence, where a licensed local guide takes over. Expect a structured but unhurried walk through the city centre—you'll visit Piazzale Michelangelo for views, cross Ponte Vecchio, explore Piazza della Signoria, and enter the Basilica of Santa Croce. The Accademia Gallery visit (weather and availability permitting) is the tour's centrepiece; if it's closed, your guide will spend extra time at other Florence sites and refund the gallery ticket cost. Lunch is your own choice, with driver recommendations available.
Good to know
The Accademia Gallery closes Mondays and may have limited daily admissions; high-season skip-the-line slots sell out in advance. Bring comfortable shoes for city walking. The air-conditioned coach and stroller-friendly itinerary suit families with infants. Your group travels alone—no other tourists mixed in. Tipping is appreciated but not required.
