A great and affordable opportunity to explore the famed Pisa on your own. This safe and reliable shuttle service will take you to and from in comfort.
Upon meeting the staff close to your Livorno cruise port, you will board your air-conditioned luxury coach for a short 40-minute drive to Pisa. While on board you will enjoy free wifi, assistance in English, Italian, and Spanish, and receive a free map for your own personal use. With approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes of free time to wander the city, Piazza dei Miracoli is your best bet. Your driver will tell you when and where your ride back will be so you do not miss the bus back.
Once a maritime power to rival Genoa and Venice, Pisa now draws its fame from an architectural project gone terribly wrong. But the world-famous Leaning Tower is just one of many noteworthy sights in this compelling city. Education has fuelled the local economy since the 1400s, and students from across Italy compete for places in its elite university. This endows the center of town with a vibrant cafe and bar scene, balancing an enviable portfolio of well-maintained Romanesque buildings, Gothic churches, and Renaissance piazzas with a lively street life dominated by locals rather than tourists – a charm you will definitely not discover if you restrict your visit to Piazza dei Miracoli.
You can start your visit at the Cathedral of Pisa, with its marble facade, adorned by columns and statues. Next, visit the Baptistery, both indoors and out before climbing to the top of the Leaning Tower. Finish your visit in the Monumental Cemetery, where you can visit a collection of ancient Roman sarcophaguses and frescoes of the Master of the Triumph of Death.
With any remaining time, there are an unlimited number of local markets, restaurants, art galleries, and churches to explore and enjoy before your return trip back to Livorno where you can board your ship or continue to explore at your own expense. The Leaning Tower has made Pisa famous all over the world, and in addition to the tower, the city offers many other interesting things to see.
When times come to an end, you will meet the bus at the appointed spot and time to board your comfortable transportation for the return back to the meeting point where you can continue exploring at your own expense or return to your Livorno cruise terminal.
Please note: A separate voucher will be emailed to you. You must print the voucher and give it to the local operator in order to do the excursion.
