Excursion from the Port of La Spezia to Pisa and Lucca

On board the cruise ship, during a stop at the seaport, you will be offered a large selection of group excursions.

It is difficult to talk about comfort and the opportunity to fully see or hear something, since the group will be formed from people with different interests and preferences. The cost of an excursion for one person seems adequate, but if you are traveling as a family or a small group of friends, it is more profitable to book an individual tour. The cost of an individual tour for a small group may be less or comparable to the cost of a large group.
