    Excellent Pisas Overview Tour
    Jana_T, Jul 2023
    We had a lovely half day in Pisa - Pisa is more than just the tower. Thanks to our guide, we received an excellent brief history of Pisa, the highlights, the 4 neighborhoods, and then the tour through the Duomo and tower. It was everything I was looking forward to for the day.

    Kimberly_F, Apr 2023
    David, our tour guide, did an excellent job of sharing his love and history of his city. He answered all of our questions and gave us an excellent recommendation for lunch and other things to see and do. He spoke to the children on our tour and made it all relatable. Pisa is special and David made it alive for us.

    Longer than the tour...
    Jeffrey_P, Sep 2022
    Longer than the tour needed to be, could have been cut in half. Not much to honestly see other than the leaning tower.
    Response from Host, Sep 2022
    Thank you very much for your feedback. Pisa is a 3 thousand old Tuscan Medieval university city, birth place of Galileo and Fibonacci among others. The idea that "not much to honestly see other than the leaning tower" is clearly a bizzarre personal opinion that have nothing to do with reality. And yes, the tour is long. Long enough for those who want to know more about the City. It lasts 2.5 hours + half hour for climbing the Tower. Everything is clearly stated and described step by step in the section "What to expect".

    Skip this tour. Guide was great, tour was not.
    mark, Aug 2022
    I do not fault the guide. He was good. The tour on the other-hand was not. I mean, we are in Pisa and we wandered through the town for 2 hours before getting to the tower. This tour includes going into an H&M store to see the architecture. In fact, there were 2 tours in the group. One was the City tour and the other included the church and tower. This left us with no time for pictures at the tower. We ended up leaving the tour so we could rush through the church, get our pictures and climb the tower. We had to RUN for our train. You have to realize that the tower climb is a timed ticket. You aren't skipping a line. The climb is schedule after the 3 hour tour and is not included in your timing. Much less time in the city, and more time at the tower, church and old city wall, which you can walk on. In the city, it would have been better if, for example, you took us to a great gelateria, or best Pizza in Pisa, etc. Again, I don't fault the guide. This is a problem with the tour. It's stretched out way to much to make it a longer tour, but it doesn't have to be that way.
    Response from Host, Aug 2022
    Hi Mark, thanks for taking time to write a review. Costumers feedbacks are always useful in order to give a better service. But probably in this case there was certainly little attention in reading the tour details which are clearly stated in the "What to expect" section. This section clearly describes the tour program in detail step by step and its duration. It is specified that the waking tour lasts 2 and a half hours plus thirty minutes to climb the Leaning Tower. Total 3 hours. Tour start it's at 9:45am, end of services at around 12:45pm plus the time needed to collect bags at the cloackroom when used. Concerning the Tower climb, you left the tour in advance and got to the entrance of the building on your own with no assistance of the accredited tour guide, needed in this specific case. Clearly this is not a suitable tour for travellers on a tight schedule. Best regards. David - Pisa Explorer
