Pisa Live Virtual Tour
Joined 2021
Who hasn't wished to see the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa? As we walk through the beautiful city centre, just like the locals do on a daily basis, we learn a little about the city’s millennial history, its past glory and later transformation into a modern university town, before we reach the famous Campo dei Miracoli (Field of Miracles) with its famed Cathedral, the Baptistery, the Monumental Cemetery and, of course, the most famous belltower in the world.

Timezone
Europe/Rome (UTC +1hs)
Ponte di Mezzo (Middle Bridge)
Straddling the river Arno (the very same that flows through Florence) we get an introduction into the history of Pisa, an ancient Maritime Republic as far back as the Early Middle Ages.
Borgo Stretto
The charming narrow street by the name of Borgo Stretto takes us through some of the most ancient part of town, going back as far as the ancient Roman settlement, traces of which we can still see along the way.
Piazza dei Cavalieri
Named after the Knights of the Order of Saint Stephen, a military-religious order created by the Medici Grand Dukes to defend the maritime trade routes, the square has some masterpieces of late Renaissance architecture, among them the Palazzo della Carovana, which today is the seat of a famous centre of post-graduate studies, the Scuola Normale Superiore.
Campo dei Miracoli
The culmination is obviously the Field of Miracles which we will see from a variety of perspectives, in order to capture the almost unbelievable sight of the leaning tower in all its glory. Lastly, a few minutes for Q & A before wrap-up.

“Professional and excellent guide”
We met Mr Manolis directly at Firenze SMN station (we arrived there by ourselves). He was very punctual and was waiting for us and gave me a call to remind us of the meeting point. We discussed the program per email before our arrival and he was always open to offer additional ideas or to adjust the program along the day when needed. He was very organized and was good at avoiding crowded spots and yet show some of the most interesting places which was not leaning towards the rudimentary itineraries. He knew perfectly on how to plan the visits in order to optimize our time. His knowledge of history is very rich. His witty intellect and openness to discuss about any topic kept the tour engaging throughout. To conclude, we had a very pleasant and well spent time. We would highly recommend him.

“Extremely knowledgable and flexible specialist in Florence and Tuscany”
I would recommend Manolis to any American desiring to get the most out of a trip to Florence and Tuscany. He is a native English speaker, so no accent, but has lived and studied in Florence for many years. We wanted to get out of Florence for a few days, and Manolis not only designed a tour, but found us a driver who was almost as wonderful as he. He was a wonderful leader to our family group, which included young adults visiting for the first time. Prior to our visit, he worked extra hard to recommend hotels and thought about how the tours would go. Our 3 days included a half-day tour of the Uffizi which he personally guided and made the museum reservations for us. We spent an additional two days visiting cities outside Florence, including Siena, Pisa and San Gimignano. He recommended a few additions which turned out to be the highlight of our tour. I would work with him again in a minute.

Whether it’s your first visit to Florence or you’re coming back to see old friends (Michelangelo, Leonardo, etc..) this is a great opportunity to see the main historical and architectural sites of Medieval and Renaissance Florence. Together we can make our way through the side streets of the city center where we come across true masterpieces of art and architecture literally hiding in plain view of the visitor.
