Full-Day Private Tour from Florence
Private Pisa and Lucca Tour from Florence
Two of Western Tuscany's most captivating cities, explored entirely on your own terms.
This private Pisa and Lucca day tour from Florence puts you in complete control of your itinerary, with a dedicated chauffeur at your disposal for eight full hours across Western Tuscany.
Your day begins with a door-to-door pickup from your Florence accommodation, followed by an approximately one-hour drive to Pisa. You will be dropped at the iconic Piazza dei Miracoli, where you can explore at your own pace before being collected wherever and whenever you choose.
The tour continues to Lucca, a remarkably well-preserved medieval city whose 16th-century ramparts remain entirely intact. Unlike Pisa, Lucca tends to attract fewer visitors, making it a quieter and often more rewarding destination to explore on foot.
Throughout the day, your private chauffeur remains on call, ensuring a relaxed return journey to your Florence accommodation once you are ready to head back.
Tour Highlights
Stand before Pisa's legendary Leaning Tower and the surrounding white marble monuments of Piazza dei Miracoli.
Walk atop Lucca's fully intact 16th-century city walls, shaded by trees and offering panoramic views over the rooftops.
Discover Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, whose oval shape traces the outline of a Roman amphitheatre from ancient times.
Climb the Guinigi Tower to find a roof garden growing atop a medieval brick tower, one of Lucca's most unusual sights.
Stroll along Via Fillungo, Lucca's most vibrant cobbled street lined with boutiques, cafes, and local residents going about their day.
Enjoy complete flexibility with a private chauffeur who adapts entirely to your schedule throughout the day.
Explore two distinct cities in a single day, each offering a different character and pace within Western Tuscany.

Piazza dei Miracoli, Pisa

Beyond the main square, Pisa rewards those who wander its lesser-known streets, riverside promenade, and local market areas. Shopping and dining options are available throughout the city centre.

Lucca: Walls, Towers, and Piazzas

This tour operates out of Florence, the capital of Tuscany in central Italy, and covers two key destinations in the western part of the region. Pisa, located in the Metropolitan City of Pisa on the Arno River, is approximately 80 kilometres west of Florence and is internationally recognised for the Piazza dei Miracoli and its Leaning Tower, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Lucca, situated roughly 20 kilometres northeast of Pisa in the Province of Lucca, is known for its exceptionally well-preserved Renaissance-era city walls, its Roman urban grid, and its low-tourism atmosphere relative to other Tuscan cities. Both cities are easily accessible from Florence by private vehicle via the A11 motorway. The tour is well-suited to visitors based in Florence who wish to explore Western Tuscany without relying on public transport.
