Worry-free Shore Excursion:
We will ensure your timely return to the Livorno Cruise Port for this activity.

Arriving in Pisa you will have time to take photos of the city’s UNESCO-listed Leaning Tower (from outside), and take in the sights around the Piazza dei Miracoli, the square that surrounds it.

Strolling around the square!

Arriving in Florence, beautiful Renaissance city, after a roughly 1-hour drive. Once here first stop will be Piazzale Michelangelo for stunning views over the city’s skyline. Breath – Taking view and pictures of Florence!

The Ponte Vecchio (“Old Bridge”) is a medieval stone closed-spandrel segmental arch bridge over the Arno River noted for still having shops built along it with jewelers, art dealers and souvenir sellers.

Florence’s Duomo is the city’s most iconic landmark. Capped by Filippo Brunelleschi’s red-tiled cupola, it’s a staggering construction whose breathtaking pink, white and green marble facade and graceful campanile dominate the Renaissance cityscape. Sienese architect Arnolfo di Cambio began work on it in 1296, but construction took almost 150 years and it wasn’t consecrated until 1436.
Admission Not Included.

*** Entrance and SkipTheLine Tickets Included*** The Academy Gallery (Galleria dell’Accademia) in Florence today retains some of the most beautiful works of Michelangelo.
First of all the statue of David (1501), symbol of Florence in the world and masterpiece of the Renaissance, carried in these areas in 1873 to protect it from the weather.

With its beauty and strength the David symbolizes the power and freedom of the Florentine Republic, embodied by the Palazzo Vecchio, in front of which the statue was originally placed.

Break for lunch (own expense) at a restaurant of your choice or our suggestion. Afterward, take a walk around the Florence’s bustling Central Market (better known in Florence as the “Mercato Centrale”) a fascinating place to visit, especially for foodies.

Piazza della Signoria is located halfway between the Duomo and the River Arno and represents, together with the Palace of the same name, the heart of Florence political life; the Square is L-shaped and is the result of different architectural interventions as well as the place where every day, thousands of tourists meet to visit the Fountain of Neptune, the Loggia della Signoria and that centuries-old Palace of course with in front the copy of David of Michelangelo.

The Campanile is a splendid example of Florentine Gothic architecture from the 1300’s (from outside).

The Basilica shelters the tombs of Michelangelo, Machiavelli, and Galileo and it is also known for its frescoes by masters such as Giotto. Piazza Santa Croce is one of the main squares located in the central neighborhood of Florence with the famous Leather Market. It is located near Piazza della Signoria and the National Central Library.

• In Florence Vans are better than Buses: Van = up to 8 seats, Bus = from 9 to 50 seats. Note that Buses are not allow in the historical areas of Florence (official ship excursions from Cruise Companies are operated with Buses). This mean that the Bus will drop you off and you will walk for the entire duration of the tour (6/7 hours) to the other side of town at the end of the tour to be picked up. Best Viator’s Florence excursions are with private Vans. Bus in Florence has only a small number of authorized spaces dedicated to pickup/dropoff travellers so, usually, during the city tour you had to walk for about several miles. In a big group chance are that you’ll have to wait much longer for people lingering at the sights and stand in line longer for the toilets or at the snack counter. You will also have much less one on one time with your driver and guide or time to ask questions, because you’ll have to share them with a lot more people.
