Experience the charm of Pisa, a jewel in Italy’s Tuscany region, on this private guided tour. Wander through the city’s ancient streets where Romanesque buildings, Gothic churches and Renaissance piazzas tell the story of the city's glorious past. You’ll also get skip-the-line tickets to the Leaning Tower itself. Gabriele, one of our local guides, says, ‘Learn about the history behind the tilt. From its flimsy foundation to methods of straightening it – even Mussolini’s failed attempt. It’s an Italian symbol of beautiful imperfection.’
Soak up the local atmosphere wandering through Pisa like a local. A true gem of the city is the Square of Miracles – the real miracle being the incredible beauty of the monuments that stand here. This grassy area is where you’ll see Pisa Cathedral, its divine grandeur will leave you mesmerised, as well as the largest Baptistery in Europe. ‘The round shape is a beautiful mix of two architectural styles. The base features Romanesque arches and pillars while the upper section has Gothic characteristics’, says guide Gabriele.
Up next is the world-famous Leaning Tower itself. You’ll leave your guide to climb the 294 steps of this architectural delight. Feel the unique tilt as you climb up to the top. See the seven bells – one for each note of the musical scale – and enjoy views of the cathedral complex, red-roofed buildings and greenery. Look out at the mountains in the distance and see the River Armo that peacefully flows through the city. You’ll be amazed by the defying-gravity monument.
