Pisa Half Day Tour with Leaning Tower
Overview
The town’s most prosperous period was undoubtedly the 12th century and this is witnessed by the urban shape of the old town center with many buildings, squares, and alleyways that run along the river Arno, which was for centuries the major communication route.
It has always been an estuary town and was already an important naval base in Roman times intensifying trade in the Mediterranean. Pisa is also famous for one of the most prestigious higher learning institutions in Europe: the Scuola Normale Superiore.
An authorized city guide will accompany you on the visit to the interior of the Cathedral and the exterior of the Leaning Tower and Monumental Cemetery. After the guided tour our guide will give you the tickets to climb the unique and incredible Leaning Tower of Pisa.
