Itinerary
Your private driver will pick you up at your accommodation in Florence and will drop you off directly at Piazza dei Miracoli (Miracle Square) in Pisa, where all the most important monuments are located. This is a very comfortable door to door service
Once in the Square, admire one of the most famous monuments in the world, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, known worldwide for its nearly four-degree lean, the result of an unstable foundation. This imposing monument with the height of 55.86 metres (183.27 feet) from the ground on the low side and 56.67 metres (185.93 feet) on the high side, represent for sure the most famous symbol of Pisa and attract millions of visitor from all over the world.
Close to the Tower you can see one of the most beautiful example of Romanesque architecture, the Pisa Cathedral (Duomo di Pisa), a medieval Roman Catholic cathedral dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.
The Baptistery of Pisa (Battistero di San Giovanni) is a Roman Catholic ecclesiastical building in Pisa, Italy. Construction started in 1152 to replace an older baptistery, and when it was completed in 1363, it became the second building, in chronological order, in the Piazza dei Miracoli, near the Duomo di Pisa and the cathedral's free-standing campanile, the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. The baptistery was designed by Diotisalvi, whose signature can be read on two pillars inside the building, with the date 1153.

Traveler reviews
This was only a transfer...
This was only a transfer from Florence to Pisa. Our driver was very nice and the van was almost new. Rides both ways were great.
Mario was awesome!
Definitely recommend! Great to have private car and worth extra $. Mario was fantastic and really took care of us.
I would suggest to buy the tickets ahead of time
This is a transportation service, our driver Francesco was on time to take us to Pisa, it took about an hour to get there. We had enough time to eat and visit the inside of the tower
Pisa Private Tour with Francesco
Francesco was professional, knowledgeable of the history of Italy. He drove safely and accosted all our needs. He was flexible on time of drop off and pick up and took the time to take to extra viewing of the Michelangelo’s David and a perfect view of the city of Florence. He kind enough to take some pictures of us and a very nice gentleman. Please request him, you won’t be disappointed.
Highly Recommended Tour Company
Our trip to Pisa was comfortable and memorable. Our driver, Alessio, was very knowledgeable and provided us with historical nuggets about Pisa and Tuscany on our drive. He answered all of my children’s questions patiently and gave us great tips to optimize our day in Pisa. We enjoyed the day so much that we decided to book another tour the following day to Siena and San Gimignano! Communication with the company and Alessio was great. They were available by WhatsApp prior to and throughout our tour. I recommend this tour company highly!!
