    2. Giardino di Boboli

      Designed by Niccolò Pericoli, known as Tribolo, for Duchess Eleonora of Toledo, the Boboli Gardens are one of the most important examples of an Italian garden. On a hillside behind the Palace, the Gardens are arranged geometrically with a symmetrical, regular positioning of trees and flowerbeds. It was decided to begin the planting of hedges and trees, rare and wild plants and the construction of the fountains immediately. These innovative ideas would make Boboli one of the most significant gardens, worthy of a grand ducal residence.

    I booked this tour as we...

    I booked this tour as we were in Florence for the day. We decided to visit Pisa, we booked this tour, we took taxi straight to meeting point at the designated time but there wasn't anybody there. I contacted support as we waited there. The support centre tried contacting the tour guide/driver several times but they were not answering the call. They left us hanging around with no answer or instructions. Very disappointing. We just had that day to visit Pisa and missed out on the opportunity. I think that it is pretty poor communication on there side as we were 8 of us and they could of called before leaving, but in saying that we were there before the time we needed to meet and were there for at least half an hour. I have booked other experiences through Viator for our trip through Europe, I hope they are better experiences. I am waiting on a refund and expect full refund after the disappointing outcome.

    Tower is well worth a visit

    The Tower of Pisa is amazing, it looks like it will fall over, but it hasn't. The Tower of Pisa is a free-standing bell tower, made of marble. Consruction began in 1173. It's not far from Florence, it's well worth a trip.

    Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.

    How much does Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $145 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 Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 6.5 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 Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour?

    +

    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 Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour?

    +

    Around 1 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 6.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour 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 -by a storyteller, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class with Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm. 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.

    What is included in Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour?

    +

    Included: Timed entry ticket for the Boboli Gardens; Transportation; and Live guide. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour?

    +

    The tour guide will wait outside the Nazionale Garage with a flag "Leaning tower". Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour?

    +

    Is Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Tower of Pisa and Boboli Gardens Half Day Tour if the weather is bad?
