The Tower of Pisa, known worldwide for its characteristic inclination, is one of the most iconic monuments in Italy. Located in the Piazza dei Miracoli in Pisa, the tower is the bell tower of the Cathedral of Pisa. Construction began in 1173, but due to the soft terrain, the tower began to tilt already during the work. About 56 meters high, the Tower of Pisa is a masterpiece of medieval architecture. Today you can climb its 294 steps to enjoy a breathtaking view of the city and the square below. The tower is a symbol of resilience and a must-see attraction for those visiting Tuscany.

Pisa and Florence
We enjoyed the day trip. There was just my husband and I and another two people so very private. They picked us up right at our hotel so we didn’t have to worry about getting to a meeting point. It was great to see Pisa and Florence. I only give it 3 stars because we were unable to get into the museum to see the statue David. That was disappointing. There was a “miscommunication” between this tour company and the museum. We waited and in the end had to leave. I would like to note that our tour guide Ara and driver Max were great. They attempted everything to get us into the museum. I give them both 5 stars. I would like to note that we were offered a refund because we didn’t get into the museum to see David.
Response from the operator: Dear Mrs Beth, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are very sorry for what happened with the visit to the museum and, in particular, that you were unable to see Michelangelo’s David. As you can see from our previous reviews, this is an unusual situation that had never happened to us before. Unfortunately, despite our team’s best efforts, on this occasion we were unable to resolve the issue in time. We are nevertheless very pleased to hear that Ara and Max did everything they could to assist you and that you enjoyed the rest of your day visiting Pisa and Florence. We will certainly share your kind words with them. As mentioned, we were also happy to offer you a refund for the missed museum visit, as we believe this was the fairest solution under the circumstances. We sincerely hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and to accompany you on another tour, giving you the wonderful experience we always strive to provide our guests. Warm regards, Mamma Mia Italia

Antonella and Max did a great job of looking after us yesterday. I was recovering from food poisoning and they took great care of me.

Shambles of a tour. There are better options.
We decided to book this tour as we wanted to tour Florence and the see the Tower of Pisa in one day due to the short stay that we had in Rome. The positives of this tour was that Florence is amazing (we had a walking tour of Florence with Christian who was great. At times it was difficult to hear him due to the large crowds) and visiting Pisa was great. However, this tour was poor and did not deliver what was advertised. We were picked up from the hotel by Max (who was the driver) but once we sat in it was evident that there was no tour assistant other than Max the driver. When booking this tour it states there will be a tour assistant with you for the entire trip. In the description of this tour it states the following: 'Depart from your hotel in Rome for a private and exclusive tour accompanied by your driver and tour assistant'. Reading other reviews it was clear that along with Max there was a tour assistant in the mini van who provided expert talks about what we should expect. For this tour there was nothing apart from Max. If we wanted to sit in silence for the 6 hour round trip to Pisa and Florence then we would have caught the train. The lack of tour assistant was evident when we arrived in Pisa and we were left to walk around on our own. This was frustrating and not what we expected. There was no communication with us as to why there was no tour assistant. It felt as though because the mini van was full there was no space for a tour assistant. But if this was the case then we should have been informed. The whole tour seemed as though the people in charge of this tour felt Max can double up as a driver and a tour assistant in one. Luckily the tour group were great and we managed to pass the time chatting away for a bit if you are going to advertise that there is going to be a tour assistant then you should honour this. The other issue we encountered was having lunch in Florence. We finished our lunch and were considering ordering dessert but our menus were taken away as we were about to start our walking tour in Florence. We were not informed how long we had for lunch and what time the walking tour was going to start. This was a shambles. We would advise not to book this tour. It is better just to catch the train and organise a local tour guide when you reach your destination.

Highly recommend for family with kids!
Our driver Nikola and our guide Giuseppe met us at our hotel in Rome in a comfortable vehicle (van) for my family of 4. The drive to Pisa was about 4 hours but we stopped a couple of times to take breaks for meals and bathroom. Upon arrival our guide took us through Florence and Pisa, took us to a nice comfortable lunch spot along with souvenir shops at our request. He guided us through the museums and cathedrals and was very knowledgeable about the history. Even though this private tour was bit pricier than the others I would highly recommend as I didn’t have to stress over traveling to a location with children to meet the tour. This was stress free and we moved at our own personal pace especially on this warm day. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for recommending us so highly! We’re truly happy that our private tour made your day more comfortable and stress-free, especially while traveling with your children. Nikola and Giuseppe will certainly be delighted to know that you appreciated their professionalism, helpfulness, and knowledge. It was a pleasure to accompany you to Pisa and Florence and to adapt the tour to your pace and needs. Thank you again for choosing Mama Mia! We hope to see you again soon in Italy for another wonderful experience.

Private Tour from Rome to Pisa and Florence with Tower of Pisa: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.
How much does Private Tour from Rome to Pisa and Florence with Tower of Pisa cost?
+
Prices start at $307 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rome usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour from Rome to Pisa and Florence with Tower of Pisa take?
+
Plan for about 14 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 Rome is not rushed.
Is Private Tour from Rome to Pisa and Florence with Tower of Pisa worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 52 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Rome, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour from Rome to Pisa and Florence with Tower of Pisa?
+
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 Private Tour from Rome to Pisa and Florence with Tower of Pisa suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 14-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour from Rome to Pisa and Florence with Tower of Pisa?
+
Around 18 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 Rome 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 Rome and add a light layer if any part of the 14-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour from Rome to Pisa and Florence with Tower of Pisa 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 Rome 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 Rome?
+
Rome runs on skip-the-line access. The Colosseum underground, the Vatican before opening, and the catacombs south of the walls all require a licensed operator, and the price gap between the good ones and the rest is smaller than you would expect. We rank by guide credentials, group size and how reliably the promised access actually materialises. On Outty we rank every Rome experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rome Pizza & Gelato Class with Wine by Cooking Italy, Rome [4in1] Pasta Making_Tiramisù_Wine Tasting_Secret Cellar, Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & Fine Wine 5*. 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 Rome?
+
April, May, September and October. August is hot and half the city is shut. 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 Rome?
+
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.
