Source: Our analysis of the creator's lived experience, based on what they said in this video.
Creator's Key Takeaways
I've cruised the Mediterranean several times and visited Florence and Pisa.
Florence and Pisa together is a mistake for most cruise calls.
Staying in Lavo suits repeat cruisers and anyone who values food, atmosphere, and a slower pace.
Luka offers something very different. A beautiful walled old town, completely walkable, far calmer than Florence.

If you’re visiting Livorno on a Mediterranean cruise, this video explains where your ship docks, how the shuttle works, how far Florence and Pisa really are, and whether it makes sense to go independently or book a shore excursion. Livorno is often seen as just a transport hub, but understanding how the port works, where the shuttle drops you off, and how long everything actually takes can completely change your day.
