What To Expect
Piazza dei Miracoli
Enjoy the marvels inside the Piazza dei Miracoli, 4 monuments: The Baptistery (famous for its echo), the Cathedral, the Leaning Tower, the Cemetery. Take a souvenir photo with the background of the leaning Toore that you are holding.
Battistero di San Giovanni
The Pisa Baptistery of St. John (Italian: Battistero di San Giovanni) is a Roman Catholic ecclesiastical building in Pisa, Italy. Construction started in 1152 to replace an older baptistery, and when it was completed in 1363, it became the second building, in chronological order, in the Piazza dei Miracoli. The shape of the building, the material used, the distribution of the interior spaces given by the columns and the space between the two domes make the Baptistery create an incredible effect of acoustic resonance, better known as Echo. The sound spreads throughout the space, like a continuous wave, rising in tonality to the point of suggesting the presence of an angelic choir. Every half hour the Baptistery staff performs a small demonstration for tourists: the effect is not to be missed.

5.00We had 5 people booked on this so we got a private car. We were picked up early and had a driver and guide that were with us. It took 3 1/2 hours to get to Pisa with a gas station Cafe stop. Then another hour and a half to Florence. In Florence we ate lunch and had about 2 minutes to shop before meeting another group and local guide. There were 9 of us total. The tour was great. My only regret is that we didn’t have much free time. Afterwards it took about 3 1/2 hours to get back with another stop. I would definitely recommend this tour especially if you have a group of 4-5 people!
Grazie Mille, Maria, Giovanni e Fabio!

5.00We had an absolutely wonderful experience on our day trip to Pisa and Florence from Rome. Our guide, Maria, was exceptional. She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating throughout the entire journey. As someone trying to practice speaking Italian, I especially appreciated how patient and encouraging she was. She even took the time to help teach me some Italian along the way, which made the experience even more memorable. Our driver, Fabio, was equally fantastic. He was friendly, professional, and made us feel completely safe throughout the long drive. On top of that, he had a great sense of humor and brought a lot of personality to the trip. In Pisa, we loved learning about the history of the city and the famous Piazza dei Miracoli. Maria did an excellent job explaining Pisa's contributions to science and mathematics, including fascinating stories about Galileo and Fibonacci, both of whom have strong ties to the area. She was also kind enough to help us capture the perfect "holding up the Leaning Tower" photo, which we will treasure for years to come. In Florence, we visited the Accademia Gallery with Giovanni and had the opportunity to see Michelangelo's original David statue in person. It was truly breathtaking and one of the highlights of our trip. Giovanni was also incredibly knowledgeable about the art history of Florence which enriched our trip to the Accademia. He also spoke some Spanish and Portuguese so I was able to converse with him in other languages; truly special guy. We then enjoyed free time exploring the heart of Florence before meeting back up with Maria at the Ponte Vecchio, where we learned about the powerful Medici family and their lasting influence on the city. The final stop at Piazzale Michelangelo provided a stunning panoramic view of Florence and was the perfect way to end the day before returning to Rome. This tour was the perfect combination of history, culture, education, and fun. Maria, Giovanni, and Fabio made the entire experience special, and we would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to visit Pisa and Florence. Thank you all for helping create such wonderful memories!
Fantastic Tour

5.00This was a great way to fit two cities in without having to block out two plus days to do them. Being picked up and returned to the place we were staying at in Rome was extremely convenient and made the morning easier even with it being an early start. We saw everything with plenty of time that we had wanted to see and do. Plenty of time to shop in Florence and explore. The guide was great and it being a smaller group was amazing.
Fantastic!

5.00Really great tour. We were staying at the Hilton Rome Airport, which wasn't on the hotel pickup list, but the tour operator added it for us, which was wonderful. Picked up right outside our hotel in a spacious, clean minivan with a driver and guide. We were guided around the basilica next to the Pisa tower, then given free time around the tower itself before returning to the van to go to Florence. Once there we had free time to shop (Italian leather!) and have lunch before joining our guide for a walking tour of Florence, including of course viewing the amazing David statue. The return drive to Rome was a little delayed due to a traffic accident, but our driver diverted around this so we lost very little time. All in all a very good day, with pleasant, personable guides and driver.
Wonderful and unforgettable experience

5.00Long and compressed but very worthwhile tour. Our main tour guide Elizabeth was a delight, her and our driver Luigi were incredibly accommodating for the long commute from Rome to Pisa/Florence and back. Plenty of time was alloted for free time (meals) and everything logistical was completely taken care of. Our local guide for Florence, Stefan was also a delight and super knowledgeable about everything as we walked and talked. Was great to learn a snippet of the history of these amazing towns and see some incredible sights such as the Leaning Tower of Pisa and Accademia Gallery in Florence. Highly recommend based on our experience, it was great!

5.00Most everyone knows the "Leaning Tower of Pisa", but there is much to learn to fully understand how and why it was built. I thoroughly enjoyed the education I got from our tour guide, Ricci. Spending just a little extra to have a personalized tour for just the 4 of us, and being able to go at our speed (slow), made for a fun day. Florence is so rich in history and beauty, there is something for everyone to like about it. I dare say you will not be disappointed if you choose to use one of your days to explore this wonderful area of Italy!
