UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE WITH ALOISA & EMAN & EMAN - It is amazing to discover a lot of Pisa history. Other than the tower and vicinity. Aloisa is an expert on history. She is extremely passionate about the history of the city. Eman is a very safe, polite and charming driver. I will recommend this tour 100 %. WORTH EVERY PENNY!

Excellent tour, worth doing on arrival in Pisa - We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Our tour guide, Alouise I think her name was, was excellent. Her English is very good and she gave us a history of some of the nearby buildings in the area, linking up buildings, historical changes , families and pointing out currently owned state buildings. The vehicle was comfortable, we felt safe in it and the duration of the tour was sufficient to give us enough information to better understand and appreciate Pisa. There is far more to Pisa than the leaning tower.

Perfect Fit - This was a small group of just 6 people and within one hour got to see a lot of Pisa and its beautiful surroundings. If you don’t have a lot of time, this tour for us was a perfect fit.

A nice way to get to see Pisas historic buildings and attractions - A nice tour around the city of Pisa., where we were guided through the history of buildings and squares by the driver and prerecorded stories. We had time to stop to take photos, look around and ask questions along the way.
