Elba Island Tours: Day Trip To Elba

The island of Elba is the largest of the islands of the Tuscan archipelago, and the third largest in Italy (223 km²). Elba, together with the other islands of the archipelago (Pianosa, Capraia, Gorgona, Montecristo, Giglio, and Giannutri) is part of the Tuscan Archipelago National Park.

The Elba Island is one of the most popular summer destinations for Italians. There are 147 kilometers of coastline in a landscape and diverse vegetation. A variety of amazing landscapes and some of the oldest cities line the long stretches of beaches to hilly landscapes, silent villages, and timeless places.

Attractions For Elba Island Tours

Capoliveri

One of the most characteristic places of the Elba island tour is Capoliveri, which attracts more and more tourists every year for its charm. It still retains the typical structure of a medieval village perched on top of a hill with its 4 districts: the Fosso, the Tower, the Fortress, and the Baluardo.

Its pretty historic center boasts a wonderful square, a real terrace overlooking the sea; picturesque alleys made of arches better known as “chiassi”, tall and narrow houses, hidden views, and flowered balconies. The narrow streets offer numerous artisan shops, delicious restaurants, wine bars, and bistros where you can enjoy a good traditional dish with excellent wine, not to mention trendy boutiques and delicious markets for the delight of all shoppers.

Porto Azzurro

Another place to visit when on an Elba island tour is Porto Azzurro, a pretty fishing village with a small marina that lies in the waters of the Gulf of Mola.

Piazza Matteotti is arguably the most beautiful on the island of Elba. A meeting spot for locals and a place to be for events and festivals.

Don’t miss the Sanctuary of the Madonna di Monserrato built by the Spanish governor José Pons y León, to remember the famous sanctuary of the same name existing in Catalonia.

Marciana

The oldest of all the towns on the island of Elba is Marciana. This small village still retains its medieval structure made up of narrow streets paved with the famous Elban stone, narrow houses between alleys always in bloom, the granite of the portals of its houses, and the tiny squares adorned with fountains.

Be sure to check out the Pisan Fortress, a structure built by the Republic of Pisa in the 12th century and continued by the Appiani family.

The Archaeological Museum of Marciana is also worth a visit; here are preserved all the finds brought to light during excavation campaigns, including finds belonging to the Stone Age and the Etruscan period.

In March we went to Rome to watch Italy v Wales, Six Nations fixture. We had a wonderful time in Rome and everything worked perfectly with flights, hotel, rugby match and transfers. We would definitely recommend Bellarome Travel to anyone planning to watch rugby in Rome. Also very impressed with the service before our trip, quick responses to any queries as well as all the information we needed. Thank you very much ! Jessica and travel party

Mario and company made our adventure effortless, from accommodations to tours to transportation from place to place. The tour guides; Will, Dino, I apologize for forgetting the names of the others From Milan to Rome to Satorini to Mykonos to Athens. Their knowledge of the particular area was unparalleled. Would I tour with Bellarome again hell yes I'm looking forward to touring with them in 2024

We just returned from a vacation planned by Daniel and the Bellarome team, and it was truly the trip of a lifetime! We have three sons, aged 21, 18 and 16, and we are all futbol/soccer fans, and a few of us enjoy history. Daniel understood this and planned an incredible ten-day adventure based in two cities, Manchester and London which included three soccer matches, four days of well-planned tours, reliable, on time transportations, and a special NYE dinner. We still had freedom to do some of our own sightseeing and plan our own restaurants. All in all such a fantastic experience for our entire family!

Bellarome Travel was recommended when our regular travel agent closed shop. So happy that we took the recommendation! We made our travel arrangements just before Covid hit and had to postpone our trip many times. Daniel, in particular, was a huge support to us as we dealt with all the cancellations and rescheduling, while he had to deal with the uncertainty of the effect of Covid on his own industry. Through it all he was kind, understanding, reassuring and supportive. We finally made a flawless trip in May 2022 thanks to Daniel. Highly recommend this company.

Thankyou to Alex at Bellaroma Travel for fantastic organisational skills of our Italian trip. The hotels have all been lovely, with friendly staff and great service. Ideally thought out for location to the train stations, and for all tourist attractions and amenities. There were no issues with any of the train transfers, and all trips we booked happened as planned. We have had the most wonderful time, and will not hesitate to call on you again if we decide to do another trip in the future. So appreciative of all the time put in to make this such a memorable holiday...Thank you so much Donna and Michelle ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
