A morning in Florence begins under the glass-and-stone façade of Santa Maria Novella; travelers gather with backpacks and cameras, the city’s rhythm folding into the promise of two very different days. By dawn the group departs for Pisa’s Campo dei Miracoli — marble domes and the famously leaning bell tower — then continues by train to the Ligurian coast where cliffs and fishing ports alternate in rapid succession.
