Honeymoon adventure
Everything was amazing! Ana and stefano made us feel safe. Though we were with a group we had a lot of time to explore independently so we didn’t feel restricted! 10000/10 recommend!

Fabulous way to see beautiful places
Our one day bus and train trip with leader Camille was exactly what was promised. We saw two charming Cinque Terre villages (Vernazza and Monterosso) and Pisa. During our 11-hour adventure, our 50-ish person group rode on a comfortable bus with great air conditioning. The drive through Tuscany and into Ligouria provides good scenery. NOTE: no food or drink is permitted on the bus and there is no bathroom. We took trains to the two seaside towns. They were crowded but comfortable, clean, and fast. We had about 90 minutes in each venue to wander on our own. There's time to take plenty of pictures in each location and grab a coffee or light meal. At Pisa there is a charge to visit the Tower or the Baptistry. The cathedral was free to enter but a timed ticket is required. Check the time on your ticket to make sure you will make it through the line and into the Tower or Baptistry and back to the meeting point. There is one bathroom location and you pay electronically to enter. Things to know: Bathroom breaks are not included so plan accordingly. There is a fair bit of walking from train stations into the towns but the views are fabulous. In Pisa the bus drops you about .5 miles from the walled old town and you walk along busy streets. This is not a guided tour. Basically you get transportation and are expertly shepherded through the process. The meet up point and sorting process is a little hectic and confusing. Probably cause it's at 6:30 am and people haven't had their coffee!

Highly recommend!
What we loved about the tour: ・ Ana was an exceptional guide! She gave us clear, useful information without overwhelming us. She also took great care of the whole group of around 30 people. ・ The itinerary was very well balanced. At each stop, we had enough time to enjoy the scenery, do some sightseeing, have a meal, and shop for souvenirs without feeling rushed. ・ The group was lovely. Everyone was friendly and easy to spend the day with. We also felt safe and relaxed throughout the bus and train rides, which made the whole day much more enjoyable. ・ We got lucky in Pisa. It happened to be a relatively quiet day, so we were able to purchase tickets on the day and climb the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Before joining the tour, we hesitated a little about the price, but it was absolutely worth it and offered far more value than we expected. If you’re visiting Florence, I highly recommend taking a little time to venture beyond the city. The scenery, experience and the wonderful guide made it a truly memorable day. We also really appreciated how warmly the staff welcomed us when we joined at the last minute that morning. Thank you!

Cinque Terre and Pisa Full Day Tour from Florence: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Cinque Terre and Pisa Full Day Tour from Florence cost?
+
Prices start at €38 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cinque Terre and Pisa Full Day Tour from Florence take?
+
Plan for about 12.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Florence is not rushed.
Is Cinque Terre and Pisa Full Day Tour from Florence worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 1,137 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cinque Terre and Pisa Full Day Tour from Florence?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Cinque Terre and Pisa Full Day Tour from Florence suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cinque Terre and Pisa Full Day Tour from Florence?
+
Around 398 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Florence can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 12.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cinque Terre and Pisa Full Day Tour from Florence start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Florence within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Florence?
+
On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici -by a storyteller, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class with Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Florence?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Florence?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
