Quick but memorable - The stop at the tower was a bit rushed, but we were able to climb to top and take some pics. We also walked the grounds and got a couple souvenirs and gelato on the way out. Definitely worth it!

Fabulous experience - We had a fabulous experience. The Florence excursion was perfect. We got lost going back to the bus and almost
stayed behind, but our guide was understanding and very sweet about it We had enough opportunity for potty breaks throughout the excursion. Pisa was stunning and we had enough time to see everything without hurry. It was a long walk to the bus and it rained but we were prepared with umbrellas. Overall a great experience.

Great shore day in Florence and Pisa - Excellent trip from cruise port to Florence and Pisa. Very well organised with stress free travel and comfort that we would be back in time to the port. Our host for the day was Kiko who kept us well informed and explained well our timings and meet up points.

Fred was a fantastic guide - The trip was very well organised and the team were easy to find at the cruise terminal. We were on a bus very quickly and left within the predicted time. The bus was comfortable with water available. Our guide Fred was very professional and provided a lot of information on the places we were driving past. Fred really made this trip fun and very enjoyable, he created a brilliant atmosphere on the bus with everyone. The meeting points and times were clearly explained and we were back in the cruise terminal on time.

Amazing - This trip was amazing! Do not worry about getting back in time for the ship - they are amazing and stick to a strict time schedule to ensure you are back! The ship excursion would have cost us £200 per person and this was a fraction of the price for the exact same tour. The guide was fantastic and funny too - Would definitely recommend! 🙂

No complaints but be mindful of the time if you plan to go up the tower! - Marina and the vendor did a great job coordinating and executing this tour. She was very knowledgeable and informative. I have no complaints with the experience other than it being hot in the bus. It was a rainy day so it was humid and there was no air in the bus. A few of us had asked for air to Marina which she relayed to the driver but did not feel any change in the temperature at all. Then apparently someone complained they were cold. Maybe only their vent was working? lol.
Other than that I highly recommend this company. However pls note we only had about an hour and a half at Pisa so if you’re planning to go up the tower, you would not have enough time. Depending on the time you arrive, the line will be very very long so I’d say you need at least 2 hours so you’re not rushing.

Just enough time to see a little of Florence and Pisa! - Federico is Ana amazing tour guide! He is energetic and informative and kind. It is quite a lot to get a big group to both Florence and Pisa within a single cruise port day, but they pulled it off. That being said, it does get rushed, especially in Pisa. And we were sweating just a bit when we got to the cruise terminal since we arrived ten minutes after the last shuttle taking guests from the terminal to the ship was supposed to have left. However, it seems they were in communication with the port and/or ship staff and we all made it back to the ship on time. Definitely a great value for the money!

Very disorganize - The places we visited were memorable, but I think they should be more organize in getting people on the buses starting off the day. I would not recomend this tour for a small group.
