Shore Excursions Florence/Livorno

Birthplace of the Renaissance (as well as Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo and Dante), Tuscany is renowned throughout the world for its art, history and beautiful landscapes.  In fact six Tuscan localities are UNESCO protect sites – the historical centres of Florence, Siena, San Gimignano and Pienza, the Piazza dei Miracoli where the Leaning Tower stands in Pisa and the Val d’Orcia.  Virtually every town you choose to discover in Tuscany has ample evidence of its remarkable past – beautiful churches, noble palazzos, bustling piazzas, galleries overflowing with works of art all set in landscapes of rolling hills filled with olive groves and vineyards and overlooked by wild and mountainous areas or touched by rugged coastline. Leading you to quintessential places that highlight the spirit of Tuscany, our Tuscan shore excursions are sure to beckon.

Shore Excursions La Spezia

Liguria, a coastal region of north-western Italy, is a narrow strip of land enclosed between mountains and sea and popular for its beautiful beaches, quaint fishing villages, picturesque little towns and, of course, its food.  The main port is Genova/Genoa with smaller ports at La Spezia and Carrara (in Tuscany).  They are all ideal departure points for visiting many of Liguria’s highlights such as the Cinque Terre, Lerici, Portovenere, Portofino as well as Tuscany’s treasures in Florence, Pisa and Lucca.  Embark on a shore excursion where you can marvel and discover this enchanting part of Italy at your leisure.

The area is filled with an aura of mythology and offers a rich store of galleries and museums, ancient amphitheatres and ruins, churches, monasteries, royal palaces and monuments that no visitor should miss. To vividly step back in time, linger in the streets of Pompeii or Herculaneum or experience the wonders of Capri with its famous Blue Grotto and designer shopping or simply loose yourself and be dazzled by the dramatic and breathtaking villages along the Amalfi coastline. Our Naples shore excursions reveal the region’s ancient history through buried Roman towns and Greek ruins and allow peaceful interludes as you explore the “divine coast”.
