Shore Excursion - Leaning Tower of Pisa
Booked this excursion with Princess cruises while on the Sun Princess. Took an hour to get to Pisa then the coach drops you off then a 15 minute walk to the leaning tower in 33 degree heat were you get 15/20 mins to see everything and everything is an extra charge including the toilet ( €1 and they only take card ) then 15 mins back to the coach and onto a cameo making factory were you send longer then you do at Pisa then 1 hour back to the ship. A better option would be a half day trip to Pisa 2 hours to and from and 2 hours in Pisa to see everything and go into all the buildings and skip the factory visit.
Response from the operator: Dear, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We believe there has been a mix-up, however: your review describes an excursion booked on board with Princess Cruises, not one of our tours. We are a small private operator: we travel exclusively in private vans for up to 8 guests, never in coaches. Our permits allow us to enter the restricted traffic zone and set guests down in Piazza dell'Arcivescovado, just steps from the Leaning Tower. Our itineraries include no factory or shopping stops, and our programme is a full day covering both Pisa and Florence. We would be grateful if you could move your comment to the correct listing, so that it reaches the operator who actually accompanied you. We are sorry the day did not meet your expectations, and we hope to welcome you back to Tuscany one day. Kind regards, Maurizio – Tuscany Taste Tour

Great choice for a private tour!
We booked this private excursion during one of our cruise stops in La Spezia. It is easily customizable in a way that gives you time to explore, include a lunch and enjoy the famous spots of Pisa and Florence. Our guide, Marta, was our friend by the end of the trip. Informative along the way, gave great suggestions and tips to avoid “tourist traps”, as she called them. Thoroughly enjoyed the trip and made it back to the ship with plenty time.
Response from the operator: Grazie 😊

Book it!
Francesco was incredible! He had bottled waters available for our rides to Florence and Pisa. He also accommodated our wish list to make sure everything was checked off! He took us to a legit leather factory (Michelangelo) where the staff was amazing, accommodating, and not pushy at all. He worked with our schedule, gave us historical information about Florence, and made sure we were comfortable at all times. He nailed the estimated times we would want to spend at each location and said if we wanted to spend longer, just let him know! He made sure we were back at our ship in time and was so professional! Wish we had booked him for the second day in Florence! I can’t say enough incredible things about this trip.
Response from the operator: Grazie 😊

Had a fantastic tour with...
Had a fantastic tour with Marta. She picked us up promptly from the cruise terminal and had waters waiting for us in a comfortable van. She gave the perfect amount of context while we were driving and gave us enough time to explore on our own, a great mix of letting us choose where we would like to go and suggestions of places to see. All around a great tour!
Response from the operator: Grazie😊

Pisa and Florence Shore Excursion from La Spezia: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Spezia.
How much does Pisa and Florence Shore Excursion from La Spezia cost?
+
Prices start at $1317 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in La Spezia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Pisa and Florence Shore Excursion from La Spezia take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour 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 La Spezia is not rushed.
Is Pisa and Florence Shore Excursion from La Spezia worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 29 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in La Spezia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Pisa and Florence Shore Excursion from La Spezia?
+
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 Pisa and Florence Shore Excursion from La Spezia suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Pisa and Florence Shore Excursion from La Spezia?
+
Around 10 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 La Spezia 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 La Spezia and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Pisa and Florence Shore Excursion from La Spezia 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 La Spezia 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 La Spezia?
+
On Outty we rank every La Spezia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include La Spezia: Taste Cinque Terre on a Food Tour by Do Eat Better, Portovenere & Three Islands Small Group Boat Tour from La Spezia, 5 Islands from La Spezia: full day boat trip with swimming stops. 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 La Spezia?
+
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 La Spezia?
+
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.
