"We had a fantastic private tour of Pisa with Petra on the Highlights & Hidden Gems of Pisa experience. Petra was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel at ease straight away. Her knowledge of the city’s history, culture, and lesser-known stories brought Pisa to life in such an engaging way. The balance of famous sights and hidden corners was perfect, and the pace of the tour felt just right, relaxed but full of fascinating insights. (… and the cakes were delicious)
We came away with a much deeper appreciation of Pisa than we ever could have on our own. Highly recommended for anyone wanting more than just the Leaning Tower!"
"We had a great food tour of Pisa with Emma who adapted it to suit a gluten free participant in our group and small children. We learned some interesting history and explored the lesser beaten streets of Pisa which is more than just the leaning tower. It also enabled us to go to places and taste food we wouldn’t normally have chosen had we been on our own, a real bit of Pisa. Highly recommend and we have great memories. Grazie Emma !"
"Please, book a tour with Sara. She is kind, speaks English very well and was focused on our five children. She really let them feel comfortable. One of our youngest daughters (9) misses her already. "
"We spent a couple hours with Sara yesterday getting an overview of Pisa, spending more time focused on the areas outside the Field of Miracles. While that tourist Mecca is gorgeous and interesting, we also enjoyed learning about everyday life of locals in Pisa. Sara is a great spokesperson for her city and her love for it shines through all of her stories. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Sara a bit and spending time in her lovely city. "

Outstanding Sights! Exceptional Guide!
"While some sights were new to us others we already knew about such as the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Davide with his knowledge and travel experience made the entire time rich and alive for us. We’ve had many guides and private tours over time. Davide is among the very best. "
"We very much enjoyed the 3 hour walking tour through Pisa with Petra. She blended her knowledge about history, art, architecture, culture, traditions and modern living in the city in a very entertaining and stimulating way. Her tour found the right balance between the top sights, the more hidden spots and the beauty of the wider city. She was very flexible to adjust the tour to our interests and was happy to address all our questions. We left her tour inspired to read more about the city.
Happy to recommend her guide service. "

It made oir trip to Pisa really special!
"We LOVE Sara! What do you do with teenagers in Pisa besides eating lots of pizza? You ask Sara to explain all about her city! The history, the drama, the secrets that can be found on and in the old buildings and our favourite 🤩 the food. Local biscuits, cecina, gelato. We’re sold on all of them and no complaints from the teenagers either 😉"
"Maria was awesome. Very knowledgable and friendly. We really enjoyed our time in Lisa and we are glad we had her. We would have missed a lot without her "
"We loved Sarah! She helped us learn about Pisa in a fun, humorous, and engaging way. We enjoyed her tour so much, we joined another the following day. She gave us excellent recommendations for the area and answered all our questions with ease. Highly recommend!"
"Nous avons eu une petite visite de Pise avec Davide qui était un guide extraordinaire : sa connaissance de l’histoire, culture et sa gentillesse on ne peut pas rêver mieux! Merci beaucoup Davide!"
