Highlights

Florence & Pisa Shore Excursion

Renaissance morning, leaning afternoon — Florence and Pisa sequenced for your ship.

Duration: 9–10 hoursPace: ActiveBest for: Active travellers wanting both Florence and Pisa on one call

Florence & Pisa balances a focused Florence morning — Duomo, David or Signoria walk — with an afternoon at the Field of Miracles. More walking than Tuscany Highlights but similar geography with slightly different pacing.

Morning in Florence allows 4–5 hours: exterior Duomo, Accademia David or a fast historic-centre walk depending on ticket availability. Lunch on the coach or quick panini.

Afternoon at Pisa: 2 hours at Piazza dei Miracoli with optional tower climb if pre-booked. Return via A12 with explicit motorway buffer.

Not suitable for limited mobility or calls under 9 usable hours — choose Pisa & Lucca or Renaissance Florence instead.

Getting there from the cruise port

Ships dock at Livorno cruise terminal. Allow 15–20 minutes taxi to Livorno Centrale for trains, or meet your coach at the terminal exit. Confirm all-aboard and keep a 60–90 minute buffer — summer motorway traffic from Florence and Pisa can delay returns by 20–40 minutes.
