The experience

Your driver waits at Livorno port when you disembark and takes you straight to Florence. Once in the old town, you walk at a leisurely pace through the streets, taking in the Duomo, Giotto's Bell Tower and the dome: architectural masterpieces the driver points out as you go. You pass through Piazza della Signoria and reach the Ponte Vecchio, where you can walk among the historic goldsmith workshops that line the bridge.

After lunch on your own, you head to Pisa and Piazza dei Miracoli, entering through the Porta Santa Maria gate in the city walls. The piazza opens up with its marble architecture and manicured lawns, and you have the chance to climb the Leaning Tower itself. The baptistry and cathedral stand as examples of Pisan Romanesque architecture, and the whole complex is built around that single tilted structure everyone comes to see.

The vehicle is air-conditioned throughout, and the driver keeps WiFi available on board. Because this is a private tour, you choose the language (English, French or Spanish), when you book. The shore excursion guarantee means you'll return to your ship on time, no matter what.
