Amazing Experience

Our group leader Mr. Swan was absolutely amazing. We were on a cruise, so our time was very short. We were very concerned about returning on time, but we arrived back on time and we had a great time!

Way too rushed for 1 day..

Way too much crammed into 1 day. We raced around Florence and saw some things, but no idea what they were. Look for a guided tour with a headset so you can hear more about what you are seeing. We were late arriving at Pisa and had to run to the tower and race up the 250+ stairs if we wanted to actually see it. The guides did a great job of getting us in even though we missed our scheduled time. Definitely needed more time here!

Put on your walking shoes

Overall it was ok. We got to see 2 distant cities from the port. I’ve visited Florence before and didn’t do nearly the amount of walking we did to see the highlights and to get to and from the bus (worst part). I underestimated the sun, bring an umbrella and fan. Pisa was much more relaxing and less walking.

Florence and Pisa shore excursion from a cruise ship

We had a great trip. Saw a great deal of Florence and also managed to do a stop at the leaning tower of Pisa. Alessandro was a great guide! This is a great option if you are part of a cruise ship. Shore excursions cater for you to be dropped off back in time for all aboard.
