Our trip to Florence and Pisa were great. Our tour guide, Lumi, was fun and informative. She provided good feedback for visiting the tourist areas. Remember to take euros with you for the bathrooms.

Pick up from the port was easy. Staff were easily identified with their green shirts on and were soon on the correct bus. Travel down to Florence was good and quick. Guide was efficient and friendly and got everybody’s details. In Florence we had a walking tour which was good but could have been better if the guide had given more information about the places we were seeing. We then went to Pisa again with a tour to the leaning tower. We then returned to the bus to take us back to the boat in good time. All in all a good experience

The guide went over her way to make our experience very memorable and special. They brought us to a wine window, during the break even if that wasn’t part of the tour. Gracie Mille

Poor AC on the bus.
Too little time to see the sights; too short to enjoy the ancient sights.
Heavy Romanian accent was difficult to understand.

This is a great tour. Our tour guide Lumi was knowledgeable and fun.

We had enough time in Florence to see what we wanted without going into any depth that would require more than one day. The Pisa visit was short and quick. Enough time to get to the top of the tower and take a quick break.

The tour does have 4+ hours on a bus to travel to locations. The ride was comfortable and scenic.

Overall, we enjoyed the day.

Very easy to find the guide after we got out the cruise terminal. Returned to terminal on time. Much cheaper than the excursion from the ship.

I was very disappointed with this tour. There was not enough time allocated for each site. I felt very rushed at each stop. I also did not like the it when our tour guide would drop us off and tour on our own but suggested a 5 euro if we wanted him to take us around and would show us short cuts back to the bus and a nice place to buy leather goods. Of course I paid the 5 euros but didn’t even have time to shop at the leather places. Also there were 2 people that was on MSC cruise line and had an earlier departure time that our group of 14 had. Our ship was to leave 2 hours after and I feel because of them we had to rush. That is a big mistake on the tours part because of bad planning they should not have been with our group. We were rushing from stop to stop and even had to rush back to the bus because it was pretty far from our last drop off point which was the tower of Pisa. I couldn’t even enjoy the are of Pisa because by the time I went up and down I had to run for the bus. I also had an entry ticket for the church next to the tower but couldn’t use it because there was absolutely not even a minute to spare before the bus was to leave and the tour guide made it a point to tell us if we’re even 1 minute late he would have to leave and we would need to find our own way back.

Was a great tour, very fast paced, but the guide made sure everyone kept up and got to see everything. The air-conditioning on the bus was honestly a bit inadequate for the heat and some people were a bit sick from the heat, but at the same time it's summer in Italy, so to be expected. Would book again. Also, the guide directed us to a great gelato spot, yuuuuum .

We completed this as a day trip during our port day while cruising. Unfortunately, a major accident delayed our journey to Florence by about 1 hour. However, our tour guide Lumi and driver were exceptional! They made sure we got to see both Florence and Pisa and still return to our ship on time. We didn't have much time in each place which would be the only con, had to rush and walk through places and take pictures. Thank you Lumi for communicating with our ship to ensure we returned on time!
