More than the Leaning Tower. Discover a medieval city of marble, riverside promenades and hidden squares — on your way to wherever you are headed next.
Most visitors to Pisa spend an hour at the Piazza dei Miracoli, take the obligatory photograph and leave. That is a shame — because the rest of the city is quietly remarkable. Behind the tourist crowds lies a medieval university town with elegant riverfront promenades, Romanesque churches and a pace of life that feels completely authentic.
The Piazza dei Miracoli itself is genuinely extraordinary. The Cathedral, the Baptistery and the famous Leaning Tower form one of the most harmonious architectural ensembles in the world — built entirely in white Carrara marble and best appreciated in the early morning or late afternoon light.
Adding Pisa to your private transfer requires no extra planning. Whether you are heading to or from the airport, travelling along the coast, or making your way to Rome, our driver will arrange the timing so you have time to explore without any pressure.
To visit the Leaning Tower, the Cathedral and the Baptistery, tickets must be purchased in advance — entry to the tower in particular sells out quickly in high season. Buy tickets for the Piazza dei Miracoli monuments →
