A splendid excursion through the fertile and picturesque Tuscan countryside to the historic university city of Pisa, famous for its architectural beauty. Upon arrival in Pisa, your informative guide will take you on a thorough guided walking tour of Piazza dei Miracoli and its monuments, where you will admire the wonderful architecture of the unique buildings surrounding you, called in the past "Miracles" because of their incredible beauty and uniqueness. You will be dazzled by this marvelous square which is dominated by the wonderful Cathedral (*) where you will visit the indoor part, a model of the distinctive Pisan Romanesque architecture, the celebrated Leaning Tower, the round- shaped Baptistery surrounded by its suggestive columned arcades and its "Camposanto", originally a cemetery, an extraordinary quadrangular cloister delimiting with its marble façade the Square to the North. The commentary of our guide will be particularly focused on the Leaning Tower one of the wonders of the world. After the guided visit you will have some free time for memorable pictures or to discover on your own the historical quarter where you can admire the Church of San Sisto, one of the oldest churches in Pisa and Piazza dei Cavalieri, which was the political centre in the middle age and where the Scuola Normale is located, one of the most famous universities in the world.

(*) In case of long queue, if you cannot visit the interior of the Cathedral, you will be offered a guided visit of Piazza dei Cavalieri.

  • Pisa, ITALY

    Pisa, ITALY
    This Tuscan town on the Tyrrhenian Sea in northern Italy is most famous for its Leaning Tower. However, there are many more works of art and architecture to see, and time spent in Pisa will not be easily forgotten!

    Leaning Tower of Pisa

    The world-famous tower built during the Middle Ages is a testament to both human ingenuity and fallibility. The tower tilted because the soil on one side was softer than on the other, and it could not support the tower's weight.

    Duration: 7-11 Hours

    Piazza dei Miracoli

    Piazza dei Miracoli
    Also called the Piazza del Duomo, this huge, walled-off area contains some of the most famous architectural feats in the world: the Pisa Cathedral, the Pisa Baptistry, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the Camposanto Monumentale.

    Pisa Baptistry

    The largest building of its kind in Italy, the Pisa Baptistry was begun in the Romanesque style and completed in the Gothic. Despite lacking excessive and ornate decoration, the interior of the baptistry is breathtaking, perhaps due to its simplicity.

    Pisa Cathedral

    The centerpiece of Pisa's Piazza dei Miracoli, it is adjacent to the city's famous Leaning Tower, the Pisa Cathedral was erected in the Romanesque style. The interior possesses one of the finest collections of religious art in the world.

    Knights' Square

    Once the medieval political center of Pisa, Knights' Square, now features many of the buildings of the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa, one of the local universities. The statue in the square's center is of Cosimi I de' Medici.

    Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa

    The Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa is regarded as one of the finest higher learning institutes in the world. A very small public university, it nonetheless boasts the largest open-shelf in the country, comprising over 800,000 volumes across three buildings.
