Itinerario
Godetevi le meraviglie all'interno della Piazza dei Miracoli, 4 monumenti: Il Battistero (famoso per la sua eco), la Cattedrale, la Torre Pendente, il Cimitero. Scatta una foto ricordo con lo sfondo del Toore pendente che hai in mano.
Il Battistero di San Giovanni di Pisa (in Italiano: Battistero di San Giovanni) è un edificio ecclesiastico cattolico di Pisa. La costruzione iniziò nel 1152 in sostituzione di un più antico battistero, e quando fu completato nel 1363, divenne il secondo edificio, in ordine cronologico, della Piazza dei Miracoli. La forma dell’edificio, il materiale utilizzato, la distribuzione degli spazi interni data dalle colonne e lo spazio tra le due cupole fanno sì che il Battistero crei un incredibile effetto di risonanza acustica, meglio conosciuto come Eco. Godetevi il suono che si diffonde in tutto lo spazio, come un’onda continua, salendo di tonalità al punto da suggerire la presenza di un coro angelico. Ogni mezz'ora il personale del Battistero esegue una piccola dimostrazione per i turisti: l'effetto è da non perdere.
La cattedrale di Pisa è una cattedrale medievale cattolica dedicata all'Assunzione della Vergine Maria, in Piazza dei Miracoli a Pisa. Si tratta di un notevole esempio di architettura romanica, in particolare lo stile noto come romanico pisano
Ammira il campanile più famoso del mondo, la Torre Pendente di Pisa (visita all'esterno), conosciuta in tutto il mondo per la sua magra di quasi quattro gradi, frutto di una fondazione instabile. La torre si trova alle spalle della Cattedrale ed è la terza struttura più antica della "Piazza dei Miracoli", dopo la cattedrale e il Battistero.
La visita comprende la Galleria dell'Accademia dove all'interno si trova il David, la famosa scultura di Michelangelo. Il David di Michelangelo all’Accademia oltre all’opera del David, ci sono anche altre sculture e una vasta collezione di dipinti di artisti fiorentini.
La cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore (visita all'esterno), con la sua bella cupola progettata dal Brunelleschi, è il duomo di Firenze. La costruzione iniziò nel 1296, in stile gotico su progetto di Arnolfo di Cambio e fu strutturalmente completata entro il 1436, con la cupola progettata da Filippo Brunelleschi. L'esterno della basilica è rivestito da pannelli di marmo policromo in varie tonalità di verde e rosa, bordati di bianco, e presenta un'elaborata facciata ottocentesca in stile gotico di Emilio De Fabris.
Adiacente alla cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore si trova il Campanile progettato da Giotto (visita all'esterno). Il Campanile di Giotto è il maestoso campanile della Cattedrale e uno dei capolavori del gotico Italiano. Il Campanile ha una base quadrata di circa 15 metri per lato con rinforzi angolari che si innalzano fino al coronamento orizzontale a sbalzo posto ad un’altezza di 84,7 metri.
Il Battistero di San Giovanni (visita esterna) si trova in Piazza Duomo, di fronte alla Cattedrale di S. Maria del Fiore, è uno dei monumenti più importanti di Firenze. Le origini del monumento non sono certe. Si pensa sia stato costruito sui resti di un antico tempio romano dedicato al dio Marte intorno al IV-V secolo d.C. La prima menzione risale all'897 quando venne denominata basilica. Nel 1128 divenne ufficialmente il battistero della città, dove si svolgeva il rito del battesimo. Il battistero, intitolato al santo patrono della città, è caratterizzato da una pianta ottagonale, coperta da una cupola ad otto spicchi coperta all'esterno da un tetto piramidale. L'esterno dell'edificio è decorato con marmo bianco di Carrara e marmo verde di Prato, caratteristici dell'architettura romanica fiorentina.
Piazza della Signoria è stata al centro della vita politica di Firenze fin dal XIV secolo. La Piazza ha visto importanti eventi storici e grandi trionfi hanno avuto luogo, come il ritorno dei Medici nel 1530. Le famose sculture situate in Piazza della Signoria hanno riferimenti alle vicende politiche di Firenze. Il David (l’originale si trova nella Galleria dell’Accademia) fu creato da Michelangelo e posizionato di fronte a Palazzo Vecchio per simboleggiare il potere della Repubblica Fiorentina in contrasto con la tirannia dei Medici. Ercole e Caco (1534) del Bandinelli simboleggia invece la potenza fisica della famiglia.
Costruito nei pressi di un attraversamento di epoca romana, il Ponte Vecchio fu fino al 1218 l'unico ponte che attraversava l'Arno a Firenze. Sopra Ponte Vecchio si può vedere una parte del bellissimo Corridoio Vasariano. Questo corridoio, costruito nel 1565 da Giorgio Vasari, passa proprio sopra le botteghe orafe che attualmente si trovano ai lati del ponte. Commissionato dai Medici, permise loro di spostarsi da Palazzo Vecchio a Palazzo Pitti senza dover attraversare le strade di Firenze, in tutta sicurezza. Al momento della costruzione del Corridoio, le macellerie erano riunite sul Ponte Vecchio, la cui attività probabilmente disturbava il passaggio dei Medici, che nel 1593 le fecero spostare, sostituendole con le più "decorose" botteghe orafe.
Piazzale Michelangelo è il punto più suggestivo di Firenze. Da qui si può ammirare tutta la città con i suoi splendidi monumenti. Questa piazza è stata dedicata al grande artista rinascimentale Michelangelo e la copia del David si trova al centro della piazza accanto alle quattro allegorie delle Cappelle Medicee di San Lorenzo.

Tour was excellent. Agnese gave an excellent tour. She provided lots of information about Pisa and Florence. Also, she took great care of our family all day with our shopping choices and lunch.
This is a fun trip to Pisa and Florence. It is not a huge bus with tons of people. It is more of a small group. We had 6 people in our van which was a nice amount. Agnese and Pinot were great guides. They fit a lot of sightseeing in for one day. They are also very nice and accommodating. My only wish is that there was time to explore Florence a little on your own. Other than that we really enjoyed this trip. It is a long day but well worth it. You also get to see a bit of the Tuscany countryside during the drive. If you have not seen Pisa or Florence then you can't go wrong with this trip!
This is a walking tour through and through and travelers should be prepared to walk for 2 hours through the wonderful city of Florence. The positives: The Statue of David!, our knowledgeable guide, the beautiful sites and history of Venice. The negative: 102 degree weather (Fahrenheit) with what felt like 85% humidity was quite unbearable. Also, even though I know there is a lot to cover in little time (Pisa, Florence and all the driving in between) I felt extremely rushed by our guide (not the city tour guide mind you but the Viator experience tour guide) who walked extremely fast and didn't seem to wait for people who fell behind. Outside of that he was a wonderful person but he needed to be more aware of how fast (on a hot day) we had to walk to keep up with him. This is the reason I can only give the tour 4 stars and not 5
We booked a private tour for 6 family members, unfortunately we shared our guide with another group of 4. the guide would switch cars throughout the day. we paid for a private tour. We would like to be compensated for not receiving what we purchased. Our tour guide Rish and driver Artur were very good and the driver was very conscientious to stop for rest if needed. It was a nice ride beautiful scenery, the trip was good other than paying for private not receiving.
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the tour overall, appreciated the beautiful scenery, and found both Rishi and Artur professional and attentive throughout the day. We would, however, like to clarify an important point regarding the booking. While the reservation was made through the tour page that also features the private option, the service selected and confirmed through Viator was the Small Group Tour option, which is offered at a different price than the private experience. For this reason, the tour was operated exactly as booked, with a tour leader assisting more than one vehicle during the day. We completely understand how this may have caused confusion, as both options are available on the same product page, but according to the reservation details received, a private tour was not purchased. We are glad that despite this misunderstanding, you enjoyed the experience and that Rishi and Artur helped make the day comfortable and enjoyable. Thank you again for your comments, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you on another tour in the future.
An amazing day trip to both Piza and Venice. Our guide was knowledgeable and delighted us with information throughout the drive and the sites. A new guide joined us in Florence who was an expert on art and Florence. A wonderful lunch in Florence (self pay). The tour felt rushed from the start. It wasn’t clear what time we had to be at certain locations and asking for a bathroom break seemed to cause timing issues. It’s a full day and I did need several bathroom breaks which I think caused more stress for the guide.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed visiting Pisa and Florence and that you appreciated the knowledge and professionalism of both your tour leader and the local guide in Florence. We are especially pleased that you enjoyed learning about the history, culture, and art of these remarkable destinations. At the same time, we would like to clarify that tours covering two major cities in a single day require careful time management in order to ensure that all guests can enjoy the planned visits, scheduled entrances, and return to Rome at the expected time. Our tour leaders always do their best to accommodate individual needs, including additional comfort stops whenever possible, while also balancing the needs of the entire group and the tour schedule. We are sorry if the pace of the day felt rushed at times, but this is often a natural consequence of trying to maximize the experience and include as many highlights as possible within a full-day itinerary. We would also like to recognize our staff, who work hard throughout the day to assist guests, adapt to unforeseen circumstances, and ensure that everyone enjoys a smooth and memorable experience. We appreciate your comments and are pleased that, despite these challenges, you were able to enjoy the beauty of Pisa and Florence and had an overall positive experience. Thank you for traveling with us, and we hope to welcome you again on a future tour in Italy.
Great communication from the moment I booked the tour. Prompt on time pickup at a convenient location. Drive to Pisa and Florence from Rome was very comfortable in a spacious van with AC. Traveled with my senior parents, husband and two kids under 18. Stopped there and back at to use restrooms and get drinks and snacks. Once in Pisa guide walked us straight into Baptistry and Cathedral with tickets and we were able to see and explore as well as see the tower and take pictures. From there we went to Florence and we went to a leather store to see and purchase leather goods. So many beautiful colors and items to pick from. Guide recommended a place to eat, Trattoria Vecchio Mercato and reserved a table for us. Our meal was delicious and we had some time to walk the market afterwards before our walking tour started. Our guide was very informative and we were able to get in fairly quickly to the Galleria to see David. From there we went to see the Cathedral and Baptistry then to the Piazza della Signoria and walked to Ponte Vecchio. The Tour was easy to follow and definitely would recommend. Before we left our driver stopped at Vista Panoramica di Firenze Punto Panoramico and the views of the city are amazing. We all enjoyed our day trip and had a wonderful time. Thank you.

It is especially rewarding to know that everything ran smoothly from the moment of booking through to the end of the tour, and that the transportation was comfortable for all members of your group, including your senior parents and children. We are pleased that you enjoyed the visits to Pisa’s magnificent Cathedral and Baptistery, the opportunity to explore Florence, and the chance to admire Michelangelo’s David at the Accademia Gallery. It is also wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the leather shopping experience, your lunch in Florence, and the time spent exploring the local market. We are delighted that our team’s recommendations and assistance helped make the day even more enjoyable.

Thank you for your recommendation and for choosing to travel with us. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you and your family back for another unforgettable experience in Italy.
The headline said Private Tour. My fault for failing to read the fine print on the click but I didn’t realize it was a shared tour. Our new friends were fine. The van was a POS. The suspension was horrible and riding in the back seat while our driver drove like he was Mario Andreaddi was the worst experience I have ever had. 4 hours of pure hell felling every bump turn and hard stop. It’s was so bad we took a train back from Florence to Rome rather than ride in it any more. I would not recommend this tour period.

We appreciate your feedback, but we also stand by the professionalism of our staff and the quality standards of our vehicles and services. We wish you the very best for the remainder of your travels in Italy.
We booked through Viator to visit Pisa and Florence. Our driver Antonio and guide Agnese were so polite and friendly . They helped us with our plans and needs. They were taking care if we are comfortable and checking the whole day schedule of ours for what works and what doesn’t since I had a little kid. Agnese was very patient with explaining history of Tuscan and Florence. She also gave us more suggestions on Rome and other historical and beautiful places in Italy. She also helped us sneak in our leather shopping in Florence which we were much interested in. Thanks to her for getting us in the right stores. Overall we had wonderful experiences within this tour with good food, shopping and visiting to these cities.
