The entire trip was very...
The entire trip was very good, we were picked by a nice charming driver and met by a good tour guide who took us in a very nice informative walking tour in the center of Florence. The city itself is a great place to be at. The trip included couple of hours to explore the city / have a lunch on your own before heading back. I couldn’t ask for more in this trip and next time may dedicate some extra time for museums exploration; seems very interesting museums are there. Don’t miss them out!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your day in Florence and that both your driver and guide made the trip memorable and informative. Florence is indeed a gem. We'd be delighted to welcome you again for a deeper dive into the city’s art and culture. Until next time! Warm regards, The Tour Travel & More Team

Not worth the money
They were not clear on where to meet in the port. We wasted 30 minutes looking for the driver. The tour was not clear on what was included and it was extremely expensive.
Response from the operator: Hello. Thank you for your message. This is completely not true. Luckily we have proof that from the minute you wrote an email, we responded right away. But please for the future, call when you can't find the driver. The driver was waiting for you and the service began. You were upset during the service because you wanted to add things that weren't included. I am sorry that we can't have extra hours and extra time for free. That is not how it works. We understand that you didn't enjoy the service as you wanted to ADD Pisa and we mentioned to you that you had to pay extra because the tour didn't include Pisa. Please read what you have booked before acting in bad faith. We explained to you that we can add Pisa if you wanted to, but there was an extra cost as the duration would be longer. But you got extremely upset because you wanted it included. Regarding the price, there is no secret there. The price is online and you can see it when you book and you can see what is included. You cannot book something and then expect to receive something else because you decide you want to add something for free. You can always contact us directly to speak this over. Thanks

Great day, best ice cream in Florence!
Very happy with the tour! We were a large family group and our guide was very practical and adapted to our needs and interest.
Response from the operator: Thank you Virginia! We are so glad you enjoyed your customisable tour. We hope see you again soon! Please let us know if you need anything else. We are at your full disposal. Thank you once again. The Tour Travel & More Team

EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE
It was the best decision my family and I made to hire the private tour that Tour Travel & More offers. The punctuality and professionalism of the drivers and guides was decisive to make our trip a success. The whole booking process with Pilar was excellent and very professional. Replies to my emails were very quick. The Mercedes Benz limousines they used on all tours were very comfortable. The tour from the port of Livorno to Florence was perfect. The guide Emilio was spectacular. I arrived early to queue at the Academy Gallery so we could get in to see the original sculpture of David. Because it was Sunday tickets were free and the queue was endless. Thanks to our guide we did not have to queue. Arriving by cruise to visit Florence, the best decision is to take a private tour as time is made the most of.
Response from the operator: ¡gracias por tus palabras! Esto es muy importante para nosotros y también para los futuros viajeros. Transmitiremos su mensaje a todo nuestro equipo en Tour Travel & More. Háganos saber si necesita algo más. Estamos a su entera disposición. Gracias otra vez. El equipo de Tour Travel & More

Florence and Pisa Private 8 hours Tour from Livorno cruise port: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Livorno.
How much does Florence and Pisa Private 8 hours Tour from Livorno cruise port cost?
+
Prices start at $1,150 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Livorno usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Florence and Pisa Private 8 hours Tour from Livorno cruise port take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Livorno is not rushed.
Is Florence and Pisa Private 8 hours Tour from Livorno cruise port worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Livorno, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Florence and Pisa Private 8 hours Tour from Livorno cruise port?
+
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 Florence and Pisa Private 8 hours Tour from Livorno cruise port suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Florence and Pisa Private 8 hours Tour from Livorno cruise port?
+
Around 2 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 Livorno 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 Livorno and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Florence and Pisa Private 8 hours Tour from Livorno cruise port 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 Livorno 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 Livorno?
+
On Outty we rank every Livorno experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full day Shore Excursion to Florence from Livorno with tasting, Full day shore excursion to Florence and Pisa from Livorno with tasting, Bolgheri: Classic Wine Tasting with Winery Tour. 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 Livorno?
+
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 Livorno?
+
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.
