Livorno, Italy Walking Tours

Located in the Tuscany region of Italy, Livorno, on the Estruscan coast, is one of the largest port cities in Italy. An hour by train or car from Florence and Pisa, Livorno was established as a small port in Roman times, but became one of the most important ports in the Mediterranean when it was ruled by the Florentine de Medici family in the 15th century. Walking through Livorno, you'll explore Renaissance churches, see the Venetian influenced canal quarter, and the stroll around the scenic seaside promenade along the Mediterranean. If you travel to Italy via cruise ship, ferry or boat, Livorno is where you will disembark for exploring the Tuscany area and the major tourist cities of Florence and Pisa. Since many of Livorno's historic buildings were destroyed during WW II, many walking tours begin in Livorno, then quickly continue to the more tourist-friendly cities of Florence or Pisa, before returning to Livorno for you to depart the city on your boat.
