Pisa Airport to Livorno port: train, taxi, transfer
Livorno is only 22 km from Pisa airport, but there is no direct bus, so the cheap route is PisaMover, a regional train and a city bus. It costs 11.50 euros and takes about 95 minutes with two changes. A taxi has no fixed fare, but it should cost about 40 to 60 euros for the car in 40 minutes, which is the better choice on cruise day with cases.

- → Livorno Centrale, then a city bus towards the port
The PisaMover reaches Pisa Centrale in under three minutes for 6.50 euros, from 06:00 to midnight in October. The regional train to Livorno Centrale takes about 15 to 20 minutes and costs 3.00 euros in second class under the Toscana tariff valid from 1 August 2026. From Livorno Centrale take a city bus towards the port, 2.00 euros on the urban ticket, and walk or take the port shuttle to your berth, which adds about 7 euros if you pay for it. Buy a rail ticket in advance and validate it before boarding.
TrainPisaMover, train and taxi
- €29 (estimate)
- 70 min
- → Livorno Centrale, then a taxi to the cruise terminal
The same PisaMover and regional train as the first route, but the last leg is a taxi from the rank outside Livorno Centrale. That is a short ride to the port and runs on the meter at about 15 to 25 euros, which is an estimate, because no fixed fare exists. The total is about 29 euros for one person, and the taxi cost is shared if you travel together. It saves the bus wait and gets you to the terminal door, with one fewer change with luggage.
TaxiTaxi from the airport

- → Cruise terminal gate
Pisa airport taxis are run by the cooperative CO.TA.PI. and must use the meter, with fixed fares only for Pisa Centrale (10.80 euros) and the Duomo area (14.50 euros). A ride to Livorno port is about 22 km and takes 25 to 40 minutes. At metered rates it comes to about 40 to 60 euros including luggage and airport supplements, which is an estimate. Ask for the likely total before you set off, and check that the meter is running.

- → The cruise terminal
A pre-booked sedan from Pisa airport to the Livorno cruise port starts at about 85 euros for up to three passengers, and some quotes run well above that. The price is fixed when you book, and the driver tracks your flight. It is the only option that does not depend on a train timetable, and it usually costs more than the metered taxi.
The same trip in a different situation
Arriving late at night
At 00:30 the PisaMover has stopped, because it runs from 06:00 to midnight in October, and regional trains are running out. The taxi rank at the airport is staffed through the night, so that is the way to go, with a night supplement on top of the 40 to 60 euro estimate. A pre-booked car fixes the price and the pickup before you land. If the ship sails early, a hotel near the airport or Livorno Centrale and a morning transfer is the safer plan.
See the comparison →4 people, 4 suitcasesTravelling as a group of four
Four people on PisaMover, train and bus pay 46 euros in total. The same route with a taxi for the last leg is about 38 euros in tickets plus a shared taxi of 15 to 25 euros. A direct taxi at 40 to 60 euros for the whole car is 10 to 15 euros each for four, close to the public fare and much easier with cases. A private sedan seats three, so a group of four needs the taxi or a larger vehicle. From three people up the taxi is the sensible choice on cruise day.
See the comparison →Practical tips
- Work back from the all-aboard time on your cruise app. By taxi or car, plan to land at least three hours before it, and four and a half hours by train and bus.
- The train and PisaMover are sold as one Trenitalia ticket online, but the city bus ticket must be bought separately at a tobacconist or the AT app.
- Livorno Centrale is the railway station for the city. It is a few kilometres from the cruise terminals, so a bus, a taxi or the port shuttle is needed.
- Validate a paper train ticket before boarding. On-board regularisation costs a 5 euro surcharge.
- A taxi from the airport has no fixed fare to Livorno, so ask the driver for the likely total before leaving the rank.
- Ask your cruise line which berth you use. The distance to the city bus stop and the shuttle varies between quays.
