Full description

Enjoy a splendid excursion through the fertile and picturesque Tuscan countryside to the historic university city of Pisa, famous for its architectural beauty.

Upon arrival in Pisa, your informative guide will take you on a thorough guided walking tour of Piazza dei Miracoli and its monuments, where you will admire the wonderful architecture of the unique buildings surrounding you, called “Miracles” in the past because of their incredible beauty.

Be will be dazzled by this marvelous square which is dominated by the wonderful Cathedral (*) where you will visit the indoor part, a model of the distinctive Pisan Romanesque architecture.

See the celebrated Leaning Tower, the round-shaped Baptistery surrounded by its suggestive columned arcades and its “Camposanto”, originally a cemetery, an extraordinary quadrangular cloister delimiting with its marble façade the Square to the North.

The commentary of our guide will be particularly focused on the Leaning Tower ─ one of the wonders of the world. You will be enthralled by the history and the leaning structure of the Tower which stirs the imagination of all visitors.

A well worth trip to do! The scenery on the drive is absolutely beautiful and the leaning tower is an incredible sight to see. The tour guide was really thoughtful and gave good local knowledge about Florence which was really beneficial to everyone on the bus.

We did have a good trip to Pisa but it was strange that there were several options of the tour, going up the tower, etc. I didn't really see that option when booking and it meant that just seeing Pisa left us with so much free time and really nothing to do! I think you should do separate tours for people only seeing the tower and longer tours for people doing the tour/tower experience. It was cool to see the Pisa Tower but honestly could have saved a load of time just going there and coming back and then doing something else with our day!

It was lovely. Easy to find meet up spot and the tour guide spoke good English and was informative along the way on the bus. We couldn’t go inside the cathedral because we were wearing singlets, having the shoulders exposed. Cathedral respectful rules are to cover up with either a scarf or a short sleeve T-shirt. It was still a nice day overall and worth it.
