About this experience
Though Florence is a city that could easily occupy the curious traveller for a lifetime, its rich culture can be spectacularly brought to life over the course of a single day. A car and driver will be waiting for you at the port when you disembark to take you to Florence where you will meet our guide and begin the visit. With this tour we will embark on a journey from the Middle Ages to the end of the Renaissance. We understand that time is of the essence for those travelling on a cruise ship and we guarantee that you will make the most of your day and take you to all the must see places in Florence. Our guide will take you the Uffizi Gallery with works from Giotto to Da Vinci, the Accademia with Michelangelo’s David and also to soak up the glory of the Cathedral of Florence with Brunelleschi’s Dome. We will finish up the tour with a Romantic view of the Arno river before being taken back to the port to your ship.

What you'll see and do
Le Gallerie Degli Uffizi
Explore the world's greatest collection of Renaissance art at the Uffizi The Uffizi gallery is of course one of the highlights of our tour, and here we will encounter many of the artists who made the city famous. The masterpieces of Giotto, Botticelli, Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo and Caravaggio dramatically thrust us into the world of the Renaissance, and in their forms we will come to understand the era's radically evolving relationship between man and God. We will explore the development of three-dimensional perspective and the rediscovery of the classical world, and meet the artists and patrons who gave the world around them such extraordinary visual expression.

Ponte Vecchio
Ponte Vecchio, perhaps the city's most iconic landmark. A bridge has crossed the river Arno here at its narrowest point since at least the 10th century, and the current version dates from 1345. Long renowned for its picturesque charm, it was the only bridge to survive the Nazi retreat from Florence unscathed. For centuries butchers and fishmongers sold their goods here, and were only replaced by the current goldsmiths and jewellers in the 16th century at the command of Medici nobles. It is a place where the many histories of Florence collide, where merchants, tradesmen, artists and aristocrats all rub shoulders together. Join us as we tread in their footsteps through the streets of one of the world's most magical cities.

Galleria dell'Accademia
In the museum of the Accademia we will come face-to-face some of Michelangelo's finest sculptures. Most famous of all is of course his magisterial David, who towers above us with a haughty grandeur. It is perhaps the greatest expression of idealized classical beauty ever carved, and was taken by his contemporaries as proof that his chisel was guided by the hand of God himself. We will also admire his series of unfinished Slaves, disquieting figures locked in an eternal torment as they try to free themselves from their marble prisons.
120 minutes here · Admission included
Basilica of Santa Croce
The 14th century basilica of Santa Croce is one of the most impressive medieval monuments in the city. Inside we will admire the frescoes of Giotto recounting the life of St. Francis, a wooden crucifix by Donatello, and Brunelleschi's marvellous Pazzi chapel, a masterpiece of Renaissance proportion. We will pause to pay homage at the tombs of some of Italy's most famous sons including Dante, Machiavelli, and above all Michelangelo. Though the great sculptor died in Rome, he was spirited back to the city of his birth in the dead of night so that he could be mourned by the entire populace.

Piazza della Signoria
Piazza della Signoria was the political heart of the Renaissance city, and here the fluctuating fortunes of the Florentine Republic is writ large in the shadow of the imposing Palazzo Vecchio. This great building was the seat of the city magistrates, safeguards of Florence's democratic autonomy. We will explore the powerful Medici family's ever increasing influence in their affairs, until they eventually became de-facto rulers of the city. This piazza was also the site of the apocalyptic sermons of the preacher Savonarola, who was burned at the stake here in 1498.

Private Cruise Excursion from Livorno or La Spezia To Florence By Car: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Spezia.
How much does Private Cruise Excursion from Livorno or La Spezia To Florence By Car cost?
+
Prices start at $460 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 Private Cruise Excursion from Livorno or La Spezia To Florence By Car take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 La Spezia is not rushed.
Is Private Cruise Excursion from Livorno or La Spezia To Florence By Car worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 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 Private Cruise Excursion from Livorno or La Spezia To Florence By Car?
+
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 Private Cruise Excursion from Livorno or La Spezia To Florence By Car suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Cruise Excursion from Livorno or La Spezia To Florence By Car?
+
Around 0 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Cruise Excursion from Livorno or La Spezia To Florence By Car 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.
