Pisa Tour
Campo del Miracoli
Does this tour include climbing the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
No, it doesn't. If you would like to set up a visit to the Tower following the tour, you can set up reservations using this link to the OPA website. We recommend doing this at least two weeks in advance as tickets can sell out.
How long is the train journey from Florence to Pisa?
It depends on the train, however, it usually takes 45min to 1hr20. For a 9 am tour, you may need to leave around 7:30 am. We recommend checking the train timetables on the Trenitalia site. It takes around the same length to drive.
We normally use a local Pisa guide, which reduces the cost of guide coming from Florence.
