If you're docking in Livorno with one day to spend, you'll want to book this tour. Your day kicks off right from your ship, with private transport throughout. In Pisa, pre-reserved tickets take you straight to the top of the Leaning Tower, with the Cathedral and Baptistery below. Florence follows with entry to the Accademia, where Michelangelo's David stands 17 feet tall, and the Uffizi Gallery’s Renaissance art.

Itinerary

Your tour begins at Livorno Cruise Port

Your private driver is waiting for you right below the ship, sign in hand. Hop into your premium vehicle and get comfortable as you enjoy air-conditioned luxury transport to your first stop.

Head out toward Pisa through the Tuscan countryside

Head out of Livorno and into the Tuscan countryside for the roughly 30-minute drive to Pisa, where rolling hills and coastal views make for a relaxed and scenic start.

Explore the Square of Miracles in Pisa

Pull into Pisa and step out into the Piazza dei Miracoli, a medieval square so perfectly preserved it still feels unreal. The marble Cathedral, Baptistery, and Camposanto set the stage for what comes next.

Climb the Leaning Tower of Pisa

Use pre-reserved tickets and head straight up the 294 spiral marble steps to the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The lean is even more dramatic than you'd expect, and the views over the Piazza and Tuscan rooftops are worth every step.

Drive through Tuscany toward Florence

After your climb, hop back in your private vehicle to head to your next stop. The drive from Pisa to Florence takes around an hour through the heart of Tuscany, and the views from the window do not disappoint.

Discover Florence's historic center

Meet your private guide in the city center, then follow them through the heart of Florence, from the Duomo's famous terracotta dome to the sweeping Piazza della Signoria. This is where the Renaissance played out, and your guide makes it feel alive.

Visit the Accademia Gallery

Use timed-entry tickets to see Michelangelo's David, a 17-foot marble statue that has stunned visitors since 1504. Up close, it's even more impressive than any photo can prepare you for.

Step inside the Uffizi Gallery

Next up, the Uffizi, one of the greatest art museums in the world, and you're walking in with tickets in hand. Your guide unpacks Botticelli's Birth of Venus and Primavera so you actually understand why they matter.

Take a lunch break in Florence

Take a well-earned break and grab lunch in one of the best food cities in Italy. Your guide knows exactly where to point you to get a quick local bite in the city center.

Cross the Ponte Vecchio

Before heading back, take a stroll across the Ponte Vecchio, Florence's medieval bridge lined with goldsmiths' shops that have been here since the 16th century. It's the kind of place you'll want to slow down and soak in.

Your tour ends at Livorno Cruise Port

Say goodbye to your guide, and return to your private vehicle one final time to journey to the port. Your private driver has you back at the ship right on time after the roughly 1.5-hour drive from Florence.
