It was a great trip however I felt we missed out on a bit because our guide spoke very broken English. It was sometimes difficult to understand therefore we got confused on a few things. Also it was slightly warm on the bus. It was a really hot day and would have been nice to come back to cooler temp on the bus ride.

Sara was great, funny, multilingual. Truly impressive. Allowed for shade and rest when possible. Free time to climb tower and take pics. Tower was 251 steps. I'm asthmatic and have a heart condition so it was more difficult for me then my boyfriend. Both in our 40's and active. But the views were worth it. My parents are in their late 60's and not comfortable trying

The trip to Pisa was well worth it! The meeting place in Florence was easy to find, and the bus was cool and comfortable. The tower was beautiful, and I was glad to hear its history from our guide. I learned some things I didn’t know! Though the tower was spectacular, the church there is incredible! Such beautiful colors and intricate detail. I enjoyed the church tour as much as the tower. A couple of tips if you’re taking this tour-have some change to use the restroom and take a picture of your meeting place for after the tour. It took us a minute to figure it out at the end!

Very beautiful place and Tour Guides (Organizer and Historical) were excellent. Didn’t give 5 stars mainly for the huge crowds and lines but the service was great. Climbing all 294 steps is a must for view at the top. The scalloped out steps reflect the millions of people who have climbed up the tower.
