This was a great tour. Definitely buy your timed access tickets in advance as the tour operator recommends. We bought 9:15 am tickets for Pisa and 12:30 for the Galleria dell’Accademia (Michelangelo’s David) those times worked out great. The driver was great and very knowledgeable. The city traffic and narrow roads can be challenging but he whisked us around like a pro. This climb up the leaning tower was not a difficult as we expected as the pace of the climb was slow and there were areas to stop of need on the way up. The stairs are however heavily worn and uneven.

My family of five had the most amazing day with Walter as our tour guide. He picked us up promptly at the port, took us to Leaning Tower of Pisa, Accademia , lunch and even booked us a wine tasting. It was the high light of our trip! Thank you Walter! Grazi!
