This one just has a couple vending machines, bus tickets & train ticket kiosks to purchase tickets from. Very close to the Leaning Tower of Pisa. About a 20 minute walk or if you take the bus, it is only a 8-10 min ride. There is also a closer train station to the Tower of Pisa that is only a 5 min walk. This station is a bit dated and older. It still does its job though. I was able to get on and off the train here just fine. When leaving to go back to Florence, originally it was supposed to be Platform 4, however, last minute got changed to Platform 10. We didn't know what was going on but lots of people who we waiting on the same platform with us starting running down the stairs and going to Platform 10. I feel like a screen stating the changes made in platforms for example would be great to have. Because, if we hadn't paid attention to where everyone went off to, we most likely would've missed this train to go back to Florence.

It serves as a grand gateway to the heart of Florence bustling with locals and tourists, strategically positioned in the northwest corner of the historical center. Opened in 1935, it features a spacious entrance hall with a glass and steel roof. The station's main entrance leads directly to a large hall where tickets are purchased and information on several digital boards displaying train schedules prominently. There are 19 clearly marked platforms, and directional signs in multiple languages help guide passengers to their trains. The station houses several eateries, from quick snacks and coffee bars to sit-down restaurants. My partner, our friends, family member, and I waited here last Wednesday for our high-speed Italo train on our last leg to Rome. Andiamo!

Turns out this train station is actually a little farther out of the way from Tirrenia than Pisa and once the train leaves, the first stop is in Pisa - So, if you need to go towards Firenze do yourself a favor and use Pisa's train station instead. As for this station, it looked decent, even though we got there at 4:30AM and there were homeless people sleeping all over inside it on the floor. It was a little scary being the only non-homeless people in there in the early morning darkness, something I probably wouldn't do again.

There we boarded a train to Florence (about a 1 hour train ride) so we could spend a day in Florence! The train was really nice, clean, and comfortable. We were able to find a seat right away and were actually seated near one of the restrooms. We noticed a "cleaning gal" checked the restroom multiple times to make sure it was clean and stocked. We spent our day in Florence and then were able to take the train back to Stazione di Livorno. (There are several trains that go back and forth throughout the day.) We then had to take the public bus again back to downtown to board our shuttle back to the ship. Overall, it's a lot of moving pieces to get you to the train station, but not difficult! Well worth it!
