About this tour
A nine-hour private drive from La Spezia taking you through two of Tuscany's most significant cities. You'll spend time exploring Florence's streets at your own pace, with the option to visit either the Uffizi or Accademia gallery (tickets separate), then cross to Pisa to see its famous tilted tower. An air-conditioned minivan with English-speaking driver handles all transport and port logistics, leaving you free to soak in the Renaissance architecture and art on your own terms.

What to expect
Your driver collects you from La Spezia and delivers you into Florence's heart. You've got freedom to wander the streets, duck into churches, browse shops—whatever appeals. If you've secured museum tickets beforehand, you can spend 1–2 hours inside the Uffizi's Renaissance masterworks or the Accademia's sculptures. Then it's back to the minivan for the drive to Pisa, where you'll have time to walk around the cathedral complex and photograph the Leaning Tower from various angles. The driver deposits you back at port by day's end.
Good to know
Museum tickets must be booked in advance and aren't guaranteed for last-minute bookings; check availability when you reserve. The tour doesn't run Mondays as Florence's museums close then. Budget separately for lunch and any gratuities. A local guide isn't included, so consider downloading a map app beforehand.
