Great half day trip to Pisa
This tour is a great way to see Pisa. The cathedral, baptistery, and leaning tower are the key elements of this tour. When you arrive, you’re greeted by a local guide who thoughtfully tells the history of Pisa and the buildings housed in the Miracle Square. The square is in full sun, but our guide made a point to take us to shaded areas while she gave her history lessons. This was an enjoyable experience and more spectacular to see in person. Pictures don’t do it justice. If you’re not afraid of heights, I recommend you climb the tower. Not too difficult and worth the experience.
Response from the operator: Good Morning from Caf Tour & Travel, Dear Johanna, Thank you so much for your detailed and enthusiastic review! We’re delighted that you enjoyed discovering Pisa and that our local guide made the history of the Cathedral, Baptistery and Leaning Tower come alive while thoughtfully finding shaded areas during the explanations. Piazza dei Miracoli is truly spectacular in person, and we’re thrilled that the experience exceeded what photographs can capture. And we love hearing that you took the opportunity to climb the Leaning Tower, definitely a memorable way to experience this iconic landmark! We hope to welcome you back to Tuscany soon for another wonderful Italian adventure. With warm Tuscan regards, Caf Tour & Travel

GREAT but a bit rough getting there.
The tour itself was great. The tour guide at Pisa was very engaging and charismatic. We saw everything we wanted to see and more while there. GETTING THERE was not the best experience. The location for pick up was a bit confusing. And the guide on the bus did not really engage much with the guests. He gave the announcements etc and a few facts but that’s it. The walk from the bus to the Tower area was VERY LONG and not clearly stated that it would be so long. You will be walking at least a mile through a city with as many as 30 other people. Our guide went very fast and didn’t seem to do much “look back” for those that were struggling to keep up, not just with the pace, but the 100 degree F temp mid day. So be prepared to do a lot of walking just to get there. The walk up the tower was not that bad - the stair well is mostly wide and many places to stop and breathe along the way. It’s actually cooler inside because of the stone. It’s only disorienting because of the “lean” feeling as if you are going downhill for a time then uphill so be sure to grab the walls and find your balance. The view from the top is beautiful and definitely an accomplishment. The cathedral and baptistery were absolutely stunning. So glad we saw it!
Response from the operator: Dear Robert, Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed the tour in Pisa, especially the local guide, the monuments, and the experience of climbing the Leaning Tower. We are sorry that the journey to Pisa did not fully meet your expectations. The Florence meeting point can also be reached directly through Google Maps using the directions provided on the voucher, although we understand that finding a meeting point in an unfamiliar city can sometimes be confusing. Regarding the walk in Pisa, the coach must stop at the authorized tourist bus parking area, as this is the closest parking permitted by local regulations to Piazza dei Miracoli. The walking route is approximately a couple of kilometres overall and normally takes around 10–15 minutes. We appreciate, however, that in the exceptionally high summer temperatures this can feel considerably more demanding. We are also sorry to hear your comments regarding the tour escort’s pace and level of engagement. We will certainly look into this, as this escort has been collaborating with us for a long time and we do not normally receive this type of feedback. Thank you again for your comments, which are valuable in helping us monitor and improve the overall experience. Kind regards,

Pisa from Florence w/tower access
Every l tour should have a big sign saying what tour they are guiding. Sometimes the tour are easy to find and other times not so much. Signs would make it easier.

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
From Florence: Pisa Afternoon Tour & Leaning Tower Access: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does From Florence: Pisa Afternoon Tour & Leaning Tower Access cost?
+
Prices start at $93 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does From Florence: Pisa Afternoon Tour & Leaning Tower Access take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Florence is not rushed.
Is From Florence: Pisa Afternoon Tour & Leaning Tower Access worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 851 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule From Florence: Pisa Afternoon Tour & Leaning Tower Access?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is From Florence: Pisa Afternoon Tour & Leaning Tower Access suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 8. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 6-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book From Florence: Pisa Afternoon Tour & Leaning Tower Access?
+
Around 298 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Florence can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does From Florence: Pisa Afternoon Tour & Leaning Tower Access start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Florence within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Florence?
+
On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici Tales - guided by a STORYTELLER, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class & Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Florence?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Florence?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
