And took us to an amazing restaurant for lunch nch… He and Georgio make a great team Do not hesitate to book your next tour with Shore Experience and request Fredricko. You won’t be sorry

Lucca and Pisa excursion - Federico was fantastic! Engaging, knowledgeable and kept things moving. He made sure to help us find San Leonardo Church which is where my grandmother was baptized and modeled for the sculpture of the Madonna! So thankful!

LaSpezia to Pisa - Excellent excursion from LaSpezia port to Pisa. We were transported in an air conditioned tour bus to the location . It was approximately an hour to Pisa. George was our guide and he gave concise instructions on where to meet up in Pisa for the return to port. We were able to explore on our own and take photos. There was time to shop after exploring or grab something to eat. The meet up location was easy to find as it was on the way back to the bus. All in all an enjoyable/affordable excursion from the port/cruise ship.

Great trip for anyone looking to know Pisa's Tower and beyond - Great experience! My guide, Giada, she was the best. Explained everything very well and made the trip even better. Liked specially because we got to know a part of Pisa that tourists don't usually go to, such as the Garibaldi Piazza, Pisa's university, Galileo's house and the bridge over the Arno river. 10/10!

Super well organised tour - great commentary on the journey - A well organised and efficient trip. Comfortable A/C bus and the commentary on the one hour journey from port was very interesting. Appreciated how organised and direct the guide was (for example, leaving exactly on time, repeating where to meet, what to do etc). We'd recommend going up the tower (must be 8 years old or older) during your visit. My review is based off the tour we booked rather than the location itself but here are a few more tips - It's a little hard to fill the full time allowed once you take your photos and climb to the top so perhaps stop at a cafe for lunch or get a few postcards for the children to write and send home. Also there are toilets on site and you can use them with your valid ticket but it says you can only use the toilets once during your time there for free which is a little weird. If you have children or are disabled I think they make an exception. Pisa a location that once we've visited we don't feel the need to return so do make the most of your time there. Google fun Pisa photos in advance to get some ideas!

This was our 5th Viator... - This was our 5th Viator excursion on this Mediterranean holiday.(8 adults) Four of them were 5++ but this was really just air conditioned transport to Pisa with a pre booked tower entrance ticket. Been very spoilt with the previous tours and hopefully for the ones to follow.However we loved Pisa and enjoyed our day immensely
