On this private Pisa tour, you’ll enjoy exclusive, skip-the-line access to the city’s iconic Leaning Tower. Enjoy climbing the beautiful golden staircase inside the swirling Leaning Tower and hear remarkable facts about the construction from your expert guide.
As you ascend this world-famous bell tower, your guide will explain just it came to be leaning. Did you know that it leant almost from the get-go, when it was completed in 1372?

PISA’S CATHEDRAL
On this Pisa tour, you’ll discover Pisa’s Cathedral: one of the finest examples of mediaeval architecture in Italy. The Cathedral is a delightful medley of arches of different sizes – the façade is more a composition of open arches than anything else!
Pisa Cathedral was built when Pisa was one of the biggest naval powers in Italy. The Cathedral was constructed at the same time as St Mark’s Basilica in Venice – the two cities were staking their claim of being the wealthiest, with the most impressive Cathedrals in Italy.
Pisa were so confident in their power that they built their Cathedral outside the city walls – to show they didn’t fear any attacks. On this Square of Miracles & Leaning Tower of Pisa Tour, you’ll see the beautiful Cathedral – one of the most unique in the world – and discover its history.
BAPTISTERY OF ST JOHN
In Pisa’s remarkable Square of Miracles, you’ll see that the Leaning Tower isn’t the only architectural wonder in this small city. Another highlight is the charming Baptistry of St John.
The Baptistry is made of glimmering white marble and is a testament to the ingenuity of Pisa’s mediaeval artisans. Pisa’s Baptistery unites an earlier Romanesque style – with huge, sweeping arches – and an elegant, Northern Gothic.
Both are combined in a charming round – like the dome of a Cathedral placed upon a green lawn. You’ll get to admire all its beauty on your Pisa tour.
PISA’S MONUMENTAL CEMETERY
Pisa’s Monumental Cemetery was the last architecturally marvel to be constructed on The Square of Miracles. In the mediaeval period, Pisa wasn’t only a naval power – but an intellectual one. Pisa had one of the first universities in Italy, and many of its ruling families had members who were also influential academics.
The cemetery was built in 1277 to house Pisa’s dead; both its influential military men and the academic class. Today, a tour of Pisa’s Monumental Cemetery promises a walk through a beautiful mediaeval cloister, adorned with marvelous frescoes. Not only that, but you’ll see some of the most unique sculptural graves in the world.
