“Half day tour was well worth it!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 17, 2013 NEW

We did a half day tour of Pisa, with Albatravel Group Firenze (Gartours), which was booked by our travel agent. We left the bus and walked the distance to the walled area where the Tower, the Piazza del Duomo (and Cathedral), Baptistery and Cemetery were located. We opted to have the entry to the Tower included in our tour price.... More

“Its Just a Tower that Leans Folks!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed May 16, 2013 NEW

I went to see this leaning tower in May 2013. People, its worth a quick look for photos to say that you saw it but beside that this is not impressive. My recommendation is not to stay in Pisa. At the train station they have lockers where you can store your baggage while you go take your photos. I got... More

“A MUST SEE/ BE AWARE OF THIEVES”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed May 15, 2013 NEW

The leaning Tower of Pisa is something to see in one's lifetime. The artistry is amazing. In pictures of Pisa, you only get to see the Leaning Tower, but when you are on the ground of the tower, you will see other beautiful building, shops and cafes. This tour was worth the price of the ticket but I must warn... More

“You really mustn't miss it”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 15, 2013 NEW

We were surprised how easy it was to get a timed slot to visit the tower (albeit in May) but book as soon as you can. Make sure you get rid of your backpacks before you queue! There's a good view but it's the "doing it" that's a real 'must'.

“underrated”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 15, 2013 NEW

Having read some review's which suggested this was average as a destination, we were pleasantly surprised, its a great spectacle, and Pisa is clean and pleasant. Theres a lot to see, though it was around 15 euros to go up the tower, which we thought was pricey, there were no queues so possibly not many takers.we combined it with a... More

“Beautiful park with many things to see”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 14, 2013 NEW

The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of the many sites to see in Italy, and is one of the must-sees. Although I have never been into the tower, seeing it is enough! While you're there, go into the cathedral and have a small lunch in one of the restaurants nearby

“Better close up”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 14, 2013 NEW

We all know about the Leaning Tower of Pisa, but close up - it was really a spectacle. Quite long queues so did not go up the Tower but well worth a vists

“The tower is indeed leaning!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 14, 2013 NEW

It is an interesting leaning piece in well set square. There is a separate ticket needed to enter the Leaning Pisa. So wither you reserve it in advance or try to take tickets as soon soon as you land at Pisa

“A stunning tower- even more so in real life.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 14, 2013 NEW

Myself and my partner visited Pisa on a day trip from Florence; it was just under an hour on the train so not too bad at all. The main attraction for us was, of course, the Leaning Tower, and as we walked through Pisa to get there we became glad that we were just on a day trip as there... More
