Itinerary:
• Around 8:00/9.00 am, our English speaking driver will be waiting for you outside the Cruise Terminal in Livorno
• We will move on a private tour to Pisa, where you will have time to admire and photograph the famous Leaning Tower and other monuments in the square including the Baptistery and the Cathedral. The Tower began to tilt during construction in the 12th century, due to the soft ground that could not adequately support the weight of the structure, and worsened with the completion of the works in the 14th century. The structure was stabilized by repair work between 1993 and 2001, which reduced the slope to 3.97 degrees. Climbing to the top of the leaning tower of Pisa is a unique experience and offers a very nice view over the city.
• Then we will head to the Chianti wine region. We will pass through vineyards, olive trees, fields of sunflowers and rows of cypresses where we will stop to take some beautiful photos.
• Once at the farm we will take a tour of the vineyards and visit the cellars.
• After the visit, the experience will begin with lunch and wine tasting. We will eat a typical three-course Tuscan lunch with homemade pasta, cold cuts and pecorino cheese
We will taste 5 types of wines for an experience of unique flavors.
• Return to the ship is scheduled for 5pm
