About this tour
This 10-hour port transfer from Livorno combines two of Liguria's standout destinations. You'll drive through Pisa to see the Leaning Tower at Piazza dei Miracoli, then head to Cinque Terre's five clifftop villages perched above the Ligurian Sea. The driver handles transport; you handle exploration via local ferries or trains (booked separately). Expect winding coastal roads, narrow village streets, and sweeping views across Mediterranean water.
Highlights
- Leaning Tower and Piazza dei Miracoli in Pisa
- Five ancient fishing villages clinging to rocky cliffs
- Ferry or train access between Cinque Terre settlements
- Ligurian Sea panoramas from the Italian Riviera
- Centuries-old stone architecture and tight village laneways
- Private vehicle with air-con and onboard WiFi
What to expect
You'll be picked up at Livorno port and driven inland to Pisa first, where you explore the famous tower and cathedral square at your own pace. Then it's a scenic drive north toward the coast and Cinque Terre's five villages—Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore. These settlements sit stacked on steep slopes with no road access between them; you'll need to catch the local train or ferry to move between villages. Expect steep cobbled paths, tight staircases, colourful houses, and views that reward the effort. Your driver waits while you explore; you control the pace.
Good to know
Train and ferry tickets are your responsibility and booked locally. The driver provides transport only, not guided commentary. Wear proper walking shoes for uneven village terrain. Many spots involve stairs and hills. Allow flexibility—weather can affect ferry schedules. Breakfast and lunch aren't included.
