Useful Tips

If you have more time, consider visiting Livorno's Fortezza Nuova for a historical tour or taking a boat tour of the nearby islands. If you have less time, you can skip one of the museums or gardens on the itinerary. However, we recommend visiting both since they offer different educational experiences. Don't forget to check the opening and closing times for each location before you go, as they may vary depending on the season or day of the week.
