This is my complete guide to Livorno Cruise Port, including Florence and Pisa, with 10 things you need to know before your cruise.
If you’re visiting Livorno on a Mediterranean cruise, this video explains where your ship docks, how the shuttle works, how far Florence and Pisa really are, and whether it makes sense to go independently or book a shore excursion.
Livorno is often seen as just a transport hub, but understanding how the port works, where the shuttle drops you off, and how long everything actually takes can completely change your day. I also share when it makes sense to stay in Livorno, where to eat, and what I’d do differently next time.
This guide is based on my own cruise experience and is designed to help you plan realistically, avoid common mistakes, and enjoy your port day without the stress.
