Experience the magic of Pisa on this shore excursion from Livorno. Beyond visiting the renowned Piazza dei Miracoli with its iconic monuments, you'll have the opportunity to uncover hidden gems in its historic centre.
Upon disembarking at Livorno, catch one of the shuttle buses departing from the harbour. Your tour leader, easily identifiable in a green shirt, will meet you at the shuttle bus stop. Once aboard, your independent exploration of Pisa begins.
Start your self-guided visit to Pisa by crossing the ancient city walls into the religious centre of Piazza dei Miracoli. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is recognised as a significant hub of medieval art globally. Fall in love with Piazza dei Miracoli, with its incredible contrasts between the green of the meadows and the white of the precious marbles. Then let yourself be fascinated by the famous Tower of the city, the ancient Cathedral and the Baptistery.
You can continue the tour on your own along Via Santa Maria, an ancient road linking the religious centre with Piazza dei Cavalieri. Here you'll find a church, the prestigious La Normale University founded by Napoleon Bonaparte, and the Gualandi Tower. This tower is infamous as the place where Count Ugolino, a character from Dante's Divine Comedy, starved to death.
