    Such a wonderful trip. Our tour guide Sara was very nice and taught us so much about Pisa, the cathedral, baptistery, and leaning tower. It is a must do tour if you are staying in the area. Even the bus ride was beautiful and scenic with a wonderful tour escort and driver.

    This trip to Pisa was really amazing. The trip starts at 1:30 and you get back by 7:30 which is a decent time to visit leaning tower of pisa. The bus was very comfortable. The guide on the bus Gabrielle clearly communicated the expectations from this trip, the meeting points, the timings etc which was really helpful. The guide who explained us about the cathedral and leaning tower was also very nice. We really enjoyed this activity from get your guide.

    Our guide Sara at Pisa was superb. We learned a lot about the building of the tower and Etruscian culture, I had wished that we had visited Pisa for longer than 1/2 day from Florence. My husband had wanted to go but I was reluctant as I wanted to stay in Florence but I am very glad I took this tour.
