What to expect
Your driver collects you from Florence and heads north, arriving in Pisa mid-morning. You'll have two solid hours to wander Piazza dei Miracoli on your own—climb the Tower if you wish, or simply photograph the Baptistery and Duomo at leisure. The driver waits with the vehicle. You then continue toward the coast, passing quarries and climbing hillsides with progressively better sea views. The final stretch winds down into whichever village you've selected. Expect around five hours of driving total, split by the Pisa break. The route is straightforward but winding in places.
Good to know
Book your Leaning Tower tickets in advance if you want to climb it—the two-hour window is tight otherwise. Pisa is walkable from the car park but involves some hills. Infant seats and prams are available. The journey suits all fitness levels since you're driven the whole way.
