About this activity
Livorno is a charming city located on the Western coast of Tuscany, and is considered one of the most important port of Italy. Like every port city, Livorno has always been a crossroads and melting pot of the world's cultures and owes its fascinating charm to this multiethnic aspect. Its origins date back maybe to prehistoric times, while many Etruscan and Roman remains have been found all closeby; during the XVIth century, the Medici Family contributed in the development of the city and its sea port, charging the renowed artist Buontalenti with the construction of a new fortified city with fosses and bastions, that gave Livorno those aspect that we can see today.
What to see and do in Livorno
One of the most enchanting quarters of the city is La Venezia, a Venezia- style quarter with canals (dating back to the Medici era) crossing the all district, small bridges and boats that reminds one of the city in Northern Italy. It is situated in the historical center near the New Fortress.
One of most suggestive places is the Terrazza Mascagni, a great chessboard-style terrace made of many white and black tiles located along Viale Italia, separated from the sea by an elegant parapet with columns. The ideal venue for a romantic break facing the sea!
If you visit Livorno with kids, one of the attractions you should see is the Aquarium, with colorful fishes, turtles and many others: a funny break from the city seightseeings that your kids will surely appreciate.
Dont'miss its great seafood traditions: there are many restaurants both in the historical center as along the seaside where you can taste fresh and delicious fish dishes.
Also, don't forget to try the ponche, the exclusive coffee receipt of Livorno!
*PLEASE TAKE NOTE that all our tours are on a private basis for your party, not in sharing tour with other people*
