The experience

Your driver is waiting at the ship with your name on a sign. The route follows the Arno river through Pisa, giving you a short car tour of the city before stopping at Piazza dei Cavalieri, the second-most famous square after Piazza del Duomo. This was the seat of civil power in medieval times and later became the headquarters of the Order of the Knights of Santo Stefano under Grand Duke Cosimo I de' Medici. Today it houses the Scuola Normale Superiore and draws visitors for its cultural significance. You'll pass Piazza dei Miracoli to see the Leaning Tower and Cathedral of Pisa from outside (tickets for interior entry are separate).

The second half of the day is yours in Forte dei Marmi, one of Italy's most exclusive seaside resorts. You can swim in the sea, order lunch at one of the many bathing establishments along the coast, or walk into town to shop at the world-famous boutiques. The driver remains available throughout, ready to collect you and return to the ship whenever you're ready.
