The Tower of Pisa, known worldwide for its characteristic inclination, is one of the most iconic monuments in Italy. Located in the Piazza dei Miracoli in Pisa, the tower is the bell tower of the Cathedral of Pisa. Construction began in 1173, but due to the soft terrain, the tower began to tilt already during the work. About 56 meters high, the Tower of Pisa is a masterpiece of medieval architecture. Today you can climb its 294 steps to enjoy a breathtaking view of the city and the square below. The tower is a symbol of resilience and a must-see attraction for those visiting Tuscany.

Wonderful tour day

Right of start the driver Max and tour guide Ara introduced themselves very politely giving a full rundown of what the day would entail. I have never been to Italy before, but in the short time I've seen some pretty crazy driving. Max however kept a nice relaxing atmosphere within the vehicle, keeping the A/C pumping and navigating his way through the hectic traffic with ease. We stopped twice on the 4 hour drive up, once to pick up coffee and breakfast and another for a quick pit stop before heading on each, time both Ara and Max made sure I was comfortable and assisting me with any questions I had. As we continued to our first destination Ara kept light conversation pointing out land marks, historical information and other interesting facts. Max also chimed in with, "do you know why that city over there is so important?" "Because thats where I live." haha. Great guy I like his sense of humor. First stop on the tour was Pisa where Ara didnt miss a beat and continued rattling off facts about the cathedral, baptistery and of course the leaning tower all while walking around the area. Being that it was just myself on the tour it didnt take long to walk through everything take a couple snap shots and selfies assisted by Ara before moving on. Next we made our way to Florence stopping off at Ristorante Di Pinocchio for a bite to eat where being that I couldn't decide I went with the recommendations of the waitress and wasn't disappointed because the food was excellent. Also I do want to point out the waitstaff were kind and courteous as well, I don't want to leave them without props. After leaving the restaurant the rest of the day we walking around the city going from place to place, I was met with mind blowing facts and historical event information brought to you by Ara. She is truly an intelligent, kind and all around good person and a great tour guide without her I would have had no idea what I was looking at lol. Even with the tour pretty much complete, on the way back she was still pointing out cities and land marks, as I took notes for future travels. I will definitely be back to Italy at some point, maybe this time with friends and I highly suggest using this tour agency on any future vacation around Italy, I know I will. Thank you again Ara and Max I had a wonderful time.

Pisa and Florence in one day.

Ara, our guide, and Max, our driver, both did an excellent job on getting us there and explaining everything we were seeing. Seeing things we never thought we would ever see and giving us the time to truly understand them. It was the best way to see this much in such a little time. We would definitely recommend this tour and Momma Mia Tours.

Not the tour for us! ...

Not the tour for us! Too much time in the car. It was @ a 15 hour tour with 10 of it being spent in the car. The coastal route that was taken to get to Pisa was the most turbulent car ride I’ve ever experienced. The road is poor, and the speed at which we traveled caused those of us in the back of the mini van to be jarred on many occasions. The tour guide seemed relatively new as they used their phone to lead us around Florence. Their focus was on time adherence rather than tour experience. Maybe fewer stops on the walking tour to be able to spend more quality time with the attractions?

Amazing trip with Pro Guide and Driver

This is tour to pick if you want a lifetime experience visiting Florence and Pisa in one day. The guide, Giuseppe and the driver, Max, were very professional and knowledgeable. They ensured to inform us about points of interest along the way to Pisa and Florence. And the guided tour at both the locations were very informative. I would recommend anyone going there for the first time to use Mama Mia Tours.

Great experience!

Great experience! Max was a great driver. We came back safely. Ara, our tour guide, was friendly and kind. It was her first day. Pisa was the best part of the tour. Wished we could have taken more time at Pisa to take more photos. This tour is ideal if you want to see both Florence and Pisa and don’t want to deal with planning public transportation! Worth the price!

Beautiful Experience with Antonella, Emilio, and the Team!❤️

What a wonderful private trip to Pisa and Florence! Antonella was such a lovely lady and truly made the day special. She was attentive, caring, and always on top of everything. She guided us with kindness, made sure we were comfortable, and did everything possible to please everyone in our group. Our driver and his Apprentice (Sorry I can’t find his name) were excellent as well — very knowledgeable, professional, funny, and quick. Most importantly, they made us feel safe throughout the entire trip. In Florence, Emilio was outstanding. He was extremely knowledgeable and made our visit to the Accademia Gallery and Michelangelo’s David very informative and meaningful. He speaks both English and Spanish very well, and his attention to detail made the experience even better. Overall, this was a beautiful, well-organized, and unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this private tour!

Great trip!!

The day started out great being picked up from our hotel. This was a bonus from the start. Our guide was Antonella and driver was Nicola, both were very nice and interactive throughout the drive. We stopped for short breaks to get snacks/coffee. When we arrive in Florence we had time to take pictures and do a little shopping. We then met with our guide, Christian to take us though the museum. He was very knowledgeable. We then had lunch and was soooo good. We left for Pisa and was able to see the leaning tower, which was fun. Finished off with yummy gelato. Was dropped back off at the hotel. Overall excellent tour. Would definitely recommend and book with them again.
