Our guide was very relaxed, and we enjoyed being able to explore Pisa from the comfort of the multi seat golf cart. We would have appreciated much more commentary -rather than just pointing out various historical buildings and sharing a few facts, it would have been good to hear much more about the history, culture and traditions of Pisa (rather than just directing us to the city hall exhibition.
There was a lot of stopping and hopping around between changing carts after tour started and last-minute people getting on and off. It was a bit disruptive to flow of tour. Tour guide, Stephan(?), seemed very knowledgeable. The information shared was very interesting. Architecture was stunning. Appreciate the cart option.
Very professional tour guide. Very knowledgeable about the city. Great communication. Really enjoyed.
Our driver was very friendly and knowledgeable. It was great way to see the city and all of the subtle features in architecture.
A quick way to see everything in the area of Pisa. We were late due to flight issues but they still waited for us to do the tour.
This was a fabulous tour to show Pisa. Our driver, Anna, was fabulous. It is worth the time to see more of Pisa than just the iconic leaning Tower. She stopped at a plaza for us to get drinks and gelato for the ride. They went the extra mile for our family.
Aloisa was a fantastic tour guide, you can tell in her voice that she loves Pisa every much. We stopped at different stops to take pictures, learn the history and the stories about the building. It was great!
Excellent overview of parts of Pisa most tourists never see since they only focus on the Leaning Tower. A great chance to see so much more of this beautiful and historical city.
It’s a fantastic way to see a city without putting in too much walking. Our tour guide shared so much about the city, and if we hadn’t taken this tour, I’m not sure we would’ve explored that area. .
The tour is a very good way to see other parts of Pisa and to learn more about its history and major parts. Our guide was very knowledgeable and explained the historical sites of the city, and why many buildings in Pisa are leaning. It is a good way to get to know Pisa in a short and laidback manner.
