Port day questions

Is 7 hours enough in Livorno?

7 nominal hours leave about 7h on the ground once disembark and the return margin come out. That is enough for a real day if you take it in the right order.

What can you see in 7 hours?

Terrazza Mascagni, Venezia Nuova and Leaning Tower of Pisa fit comfortably. That maths counts the round trip from the ship, not just the visit.

What should you leave out?

With 7h usable, Ponte Vecchio, Florence Duomo and Uffizi Gallery does not fit without risking the return. Save it for a longer call.

What time should I head back to the ship?

Turn back by 3:15 PM at the latest. That already includes an hour of margin before all aboard.
