Description

Expand your stay in Florence with an afternoon visit to the Leaning Tower of Pisa, one of Italy's most popular attractions. With your transport and sightseeing taken care of, you can sit back and enjoy your half-day visit to the famous Renaissance city of Pisa.

Introduction

After a panoramic drive through the Tuscan countryside, you'll drive along the embankment lining the River Arno into Pisa. Your visit begins with a guided visit of Piazza dei Miracoli, home to the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa (exterior visit). This masterpiece of Romanesque art is surrounded by the equally beautiful baptistery (exterior visit) and cathedral (visit inside).

You will then have free time to explore Pisa on your own. Or perhaps you would like to take a guided walk to Piazza dei Cavalieri with your tour escort, where you will see Scuola Normale, one of the most famous universities in the world. Founded by Napoleon in 1810, the university has been educating students and carrying out research for nearly two centuries.

We had a wonderful trip and was glad to visit Pisa! The guide pointed out several sights along the way from Florence to Pisa and it was a comfortable bus ride. The walk from the parking area to the Cathedral was short and not a problem. The highlight of the trip was the Cathedral which was beautiful and we took many pictures, including us holding up the tower. Overall it was fun and relaxed! We didn't plan to climb the Tower, but the guide was very accommodating and wanted to make sure we could if we wanted to! I would definitely recommend this trip if you would like to catch the highlights of Pisa with a half day trip from Florence.

This was a very enjoyable trip. The pick-up point was very central and on the coach ride to Pisa we were given lots of facts about the areas we were driving through, which was nice. The group was split into smaller groups for the tour of the church, which made it easier to hear our local guide. Our local guide was Naomi and she was fantastic, she had a great way of telling us the history; very knowledgable but very funny too. A great trip, just the right amount of time to take in Miracle Square and some great photo opportunities.
