Florence Day Trip from Livorno

This excursion to Florence from Livorno is especially designed for those who arrive by cruise ship and want to take advantage of the stopover to get to know the birthplace of the Renaissance without worrying about timetables and connections. You will travel on a GT Bus (Grand Tourist Bus), with multilingual assistance from the bus stop and on board, and an expert tour leader who will accompany you during the journey and the initial visit.

The journey from the port of Livorno to Florence (Piazzale Montelungo) takes approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. Upon arrival, your escort will take you on a walking tour of the most emblematic monuments: the Duomo and its campanile, the photogenic Ponte Vecchio and the Piazza della Signoria, the real historic heart of the city. It is a perfect first introduction to get your bearings and start enjoying Florence as a real open-air museum.

The tour continues at the Central Market of Florence, where you can discover the local flavours, taste typical products and enjoy a complimentary glass of wine. It is the ideal place to have a bite to eat on your own, take a break and experience the most authentic Florentine atmosphere among food stalls, fresh products and Tuscan specialities.

After this first guided part, you will have about 4.5-5 hours of free time to continue exploring Florence at your leisure: stroll through its streets, enter museums or churches, do some shopping or go to iconic viewpoints such as Piazzale Michelangelo. At the end of the day, the bus will take you directly back to the port of Livorno.
