Florence and Pisa Day Trip from La Spezia by Bus

This Florence and Pisa day trip from La Spezia puts two of Tuscany's great art cities into a single long day, with a coach ride from the cruise terminal and back, and a return to the ship that is guaranteed on time. Commentary in several languages plays on board, and Wi-Fi, city maps and a free walking-tour app come with the seat.

In Florence you can add a walking tour with a local through the historic centre, visiting Ponte Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria and the Duomo with its campanile, before the walk ends at the Central Market, where you can try local dishes. Afterwards the hours are yours to spend as you like. Another option adds entry to the Accademia Gallery, home to Michelangelo's original David, together with his unfinished sculptures, paintings and old musical instruments. A glass of wine in Florence is included.

The day ends in Pisa, at its Piazza dei Miracoli, where there is time for the Cathedral, the Baptistery and the Leaning Tower, which you can climb if you pick the tower ticket.

• Florence: Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria
