Itinerary

1. 1

   Florence

   50min

   Prepare to embark on a journey to one of Italy’s most iconic and historic cities: Pisa awaits! Your private driver will pick you up directly from your accommodation in Florence, and you’ll travel in total comfort aboard a luxury Mercedes vehicle. As you leave behind the lively streets of Florence, you'll be welcomed by the serene beauty of Tuscany’s rolling hills. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenic drive to Pisa, which takes approximately one hour.

2. 2

   Pisa

   1h

   Upon arrival in Pisa, your driver will drop you off at the iconic Square of Miracles, home to the city’s most famous landmarks. You'll have two hours to explore this stunning UNESCO World Heritage Site, where the dazzling white marble monuments, the Leaning Tower, Cathedral, Baptistery, and Camposanto, stand in breathtaking contrast to the green lawns. After taking in the highlights, consider venturing beyond the tourist path. Enjoy a cappuccino at a local café and take a peaceful stroll along the scenic Arno River. Your private driver remains at your full disposal throughout the day, ready to offer recommendations and pick you up at your preferred location when it's time to return to Florence.

3. 3

   Piazza dei Miracoli

   1h

   As you pass through the ancient walls that enclose the Square of Miracles, prepare to be awestruck by the breathtaking sights of Pisa. The brilliant white marble monuments seem to glow against the lush green lawns, creating a picture-perfect setting. Take your time to explore the stunning Cathedral, the acoustically unique Baptistery, the historic Camposanto Cemetery, and of course: the world-famous Leaning Tower. Don’t forget to have your camera ready for fun and memorable photos in front of this iconic symbol of Italy!

4. 4

   Duomo di Pisa

   20min

   At the heart of the Square of Miracles stands the sacred Cathedral of Pisa: an often-overlooked gem that radiates elegance and grandeur. While most visitors rush to the Leaning Tower, this architectural masterpiece offers a quieter yet deeply moving experience. The Cathedral is a rare and striking example of “Pisan Romanesque” architecture, a unique style found only in Pisa and nearby towns like Lucca. As you approach the ornate façade, you’ll be captivated by the intricate stone carvings: so precise, it’s hard to believe they were crafted nearly a thousand years ago. If time allows, step through the grand bronze doors and into a space of spiritual harmony, where masterpieces await: Cimabue’s haunting frescoes, Giovanni Pisano’s intricate pulpit, and stunning gilded ceilings.

5. 5

   Leaning Tower of Pisa

   20min

   With the iconic Leaning Tower right before your eyes, visiting the inside becomes a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: but only for those who select the tour option that includes Tower access. If you’ve chosen this upgrade, get ready to climb the famous spiral staircase to the top. From there, take in a breathtaking panoramic view of Pisa and its surroundings. Feel the breeze, enjoy the surreal tilt beneath your feet, and capture unforgettable photos from one of Italy’s most legendary landmarks.

6. 6

   Florence

   1h

   After grabbing some last minute souvenirs, your driver will be ready to pick you up at any location in Pisa. Enjoy the comfort of a luxury, private Mercedes vehicle for your journey back. The drive will take about one hour, and you will be dropped off at your accommodation in Florence.
