Pleasant visit to Pisa

4.00The information was interesting and our tour guide Amanda was knowledgeable but the tour itself could have been scheduled for longer to allow time for questions and a little more information. Unfortunately, due to incorrect meeting point address given to half the group we were slow in getting started (tour guide did contact us and waited as error was in the directions) so that cut 15 minutes from our tour. In summary, Amanda was pleasant and knew a lot, but the event as a whole seemed a little rushed.

5.00Carolina was an excellent guide! She shared pertinent historical facts in such a way that the adults and kids in our group of 8 were all engaged. She made a point to keep us on time and shared unique details about the town and history outside of just the sites we saw on our tour. She even recommended an area of town outside of the tourist spots for us to grab a bite and it was exactly what we wanted. I highly recommend this tour and especially our lovely local guide, Carolina, who made our day trip to Pisa memorable!
The tour was wonderful!...

5.00We signed up for the small group and were lucky enough to be the only two on the tour that day! Our tour guide, Roberto, was so super friendly and very knowledgeable about Pisa and the tower, church, etc., since he is a local Pisan. I would highly recommend this tour with Roberto if you want to learn about everything you are seeing and have an unforgettable experience. He also knew exactly where and when to take the obligatory photo of pushing the tower with our hands.
Great Experience
