Fantastic Tour Experience We had an incredible time with Ciao Florence. The guide, Cecil, was knowledgeable and engaging, making the whole experience both informative and fun. The itinerary was well-organized, and we got to see three cities in one day. The group size was perfect, allowing for personal attention without feeling overcrowded. Overall, it was a great way to explore the area, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a memorable adventure!

Elisa is such an amazing tour guide. She was very passionate and knowledgeable about the attractions. Props to our driver Joseph/Jose for bringing us safely to all the attractions, and back to Rome. It was a long day, and spent many hours on the bus, but the tour is so worth it.

I could easily find the guide at Piazza Lungo. I arrived in Pisa on a double-decker bus and was able to reach my destination following the guide. They kindly wrote down the meeting time in writing and clearly informed me of it. When everyone gathered, they called my name and checked on each tour participant so that I could return safely. After the guided tour, I had enough time to look around and take pictures until the meeting time.

The itinerary was fulfilling. Tuscany was far away but it was very convenient to take the bus. The tour guide was also very enthusiastic to greet everyone. The lunch was delicious. I recommend this activity

Alessia was our guide on this adventure and we loved how she explained everything to us. The places are beautiful, very medieval and the lunch with the wine tasting was good. They give you the necessary time to be able to visit each place since they are very small towns that are easy to explore. I recommend this tour of Tuscany to do something different :)

The idyllic scenery of Tuscany is great, and it gives people a refreshing feeling even on rainy days. It is great to taste the world champion gelato in San Gimignano.

I had an incredible experience on the local tour I joined last week! Despite the long travel time between Rome, the Pisa Tower, and Florence (almost 4 hours), the journey was truly enjoyable. The tour guide was fantastic, and the local travel agent was proactive in keeping in touch before the trip. My time in Italy was unforgettable, and I will cherish every moment spent exploring these beautiful destinations.

What to know before visiting Leaning Tower

Remarkable Landmarks and Must-Visit Sights

Leaning Tower of Pisa

The main attraction, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, stands at 55.86 meters on the low side and 56.67 meters on the high side. Visitors can climb its 296 steps to enjoy panoramic views of Pisa from the top.

Pisa Cathedral

Adjacent to the tower, the Pisa Cathedral is a stunning example of Romanesque architecture. Its intricate design and historical significance make it a must-see.

Pisa Baptistry

The Pisa Baptistry, another architectural gem in the Piazza del Duomo, is known for its impressive acoustics and beautiful design.

Culture and History

The Leaning Tower of Pisa is part of the Piazza del Duomo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Construction began in 1173 and was completed in 1372. The tower's lean started during construction due to soft ground. It has survived numerous earthquakes and was stabilized between 1993 and 2001.

Local Cuisine

Pisa offers a delightful culinary experience. Must-try dishes include 'pappa al pomodoro' (tomato and bread soup), 'ribollita' (a hearty vegetable soup), and 'cacciucco' (a traditional fish stew). Enjoy these dishes at local trattorias for an authentic taste of Tuscany.

Architectural Marvel

Built in the 12th century with an inadequate foundation, the Leaning Tower of Pisa has surprisingly stood the test of time. Recent restorations have reduced its tilt, but the lean is still noticeable and fascinating.

Cultural Significance

The Leaning Tower is not just a tourist attraction; it's a symbol of architectural resilience and historical significance. The Piazza dei Miracoli is a UNESCO World Heritage site, adding to its cultural importance.

Photo Opportunities

The Leaning Tower offers endless creative photo opportunities. Whether you're pretending to hold it up or pushing it down, it's a fun and iconic photo spot.

Cultural and Historical Significance

The Leaning Tower of Niles was built between 1931 and 1934 by Robert Ilg to conceal a water tower for his park. It has since become a symbol of architectural ingenuity and cultural heritage. In 2019, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places, recognizing its importance in American history and architecture.
