Soak in the beauty of the verdant and picturesque Tuscan countryside on your way to the charming city of Pisa, known for its architectural splendor. Once in Pisa, embark on a guided tour of Piazza dei Miracoli and admire its monuments that are known as ‘miracles’ because of their timeless beauty.
Visit the Cathedral which dominates the square, the iconic Leaning Tower, and the round- shaped Baptistery surrounded by its suggestive columned arcades and its “Camposanto”, originally a cemetery. Your knowledgeable guide will regale you with facts about the Leaning Tower, one of the wonders of the world. Immerse yourself in the fascinating history of the Tower that continues to stir the imagination of all visitors.
The guided tour ends by the tower after which you can explore the interior of the Leaning Tower with skip-the-line access. Climb to the top by navigating hundreds of stairs – a daunting task but well worth the effort! The tower is 55.86 m tall (183.27 ft) from the ground on the low side and 56.70 m tall (186.02 ft) on the high side, because of the unstable subsoil, contributing to its being one of the wonders of 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.
