Livorno Cruises
Situated on the western coast of Tuscany, Livorno is generally seen as the gateway to Pisa and its iconic leaning tower, synonymous with Italy. However, Livorno itself has much to offer – particularly the Venice Quarter, a unique 17th century system of canals, earning the area the nickname of Little Venice. These canals were used by merchants to move products between homes, and many residents still keep boats moored outside their houses.
