What's included in the EUR 600 price?

The price includes round-trip transportation from Rome, guided tours of Florence and Pisa, and lunch. Entrance fees to monuments and personal expenses are typically not included; confirm exact inclusions when booking.

How much time do we spend in each city?

Roughly 5–6 hours in Florence (including lunch and market time) and about 2 hours in Pisa. Departure from Florence is around 2:30pm, with an evening return to Rome.

Is the Leaning Tower of Pisa included, or do we just see it from outside?

The tour shows you the famous tower and Piazza dei Miracoli area. Climbing the tower typically requires a separate paid ticket; check with your tour operator if this is available as an add-on.

What's the group size for a semi-private tour?

Semi-private tours typically accommodate 4–8 people, offering a more intimate experience than large coach tours while still being more affordable than fully private options.

About this activity

Experience two Renaissance masterpieces in a single day with this guided journey from Rome through the Tuscan countryside. Travel by comfortable vehicle to Florence for a comprehensive walking tour of iconic landmarks, enjoy a leisurely lunch, and explore Pisa's medieval Piazza dei Miracoli before returning to Rome.

Depart from Rome and admire the beautiful Tuscan countryside from your confortable car. Once you arrive in Florence, the city tour will start from Piazzale Michelangelo where you can enjoy the amazing view over all of central Florence. Then you will reach the Ponte Vecchio for some of the best views in Florence. You will walk through the lovely streets of the city and visit the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, with its beautiful Brunelleschi's Dome. Before reaching Piazza della Signoria, you can also admire the Baptistery and Giotto's Bell Tower. After lunch (included), you can relax and have a walk in the San Lorenzo outdoor market, where you can find very high-quality leather jackets and other leather goods at very reasonable prices. You will leave Florence around 2:30pm and head to Pisa, where your guide will show you the famous Leaning Tower, Piazza dei Miracoli, the Cathedral, and the Baptistery. After exploring the area, you'll depart from Pisa at 5pm and head back to Rome.

our host Leila had so many stories and a fish taco from a tiny street stall was the highlight ... First thing in the morning so it wasnt too busy. Fine even with my dodgy knee, and we hit 6 tastings, and we hit 6 tastings. Would book again no question.
