Pisa & Siena Shore Excursion with Discovery Guided Tours

The Amalfi Coast, a rugged stretch of Italy’s Campania region, is famed for its dramatic cliffs and turquoise waters, but just a ferry ride away from Livorno lies a chance to immerse in Tuscany’s iconic art and history. Discovery Guided Tours offers a 9-hour private shore excursion from Livorno that delivers a full-day immersion into the medieval heart of Pisa and Siena, two cities where historic landmarks rise from winding streets and centuries-old plazas. Your journey begins in Pisa, where the unforgettable Leaning Tower stands as a portrait of architectural whimsy and engineering challenge. Beyond this famous tilt, the Piazza dei Miracoli unfolds with its Romanesque cathedral and baptistery, all crafted from gleaming white marble that catches the Tuscan sun. From Pisa, the route shifts inland to Siena, a hilltop city that exudes Gothic charm through its terracotta rooftops and narrow alleys. The Gothic Siena Cathedral, with its striped marble façade and intricate stained glass, reveals centuries of art and religious devotion. A stroll through Piazza del Campo brings the city’s vibrant past to life—hosting the legendary Palio horse race and buzzing with local cafés. This shore excursion isn’t just about landmarks; it’s complemented by a lunch at a traditional trattoria, giving a taste of Tuscany’s rich culinary heritage. Discovery Guided Tours expertly combines comfortable travel logistics with intimate local knowledge, making the day feel both seamless and deeply authentic.
