A splendid excursion through the fertile and picturesque Tuscan countryside to the historic university city of Pisa, famous for its architectural beauty.
Upon arrival, you will have free time to discover Piazza dei Miracoli and its monuments, which are called “miracles” because of their incredible beauty and uniqueness.
The square is dominated by the Cathedral, a model of the distinctive Pisa Romanesque architecture, the celebrated Leaning Tower and the round-shaped Baptistery, surrounded by its suggestive columned arcades and “Camposanto”, an extraordinary quadrangular cloister (originally a cemetery), delimiting with its marble façade the North part of the square.
You will have also time for memorable pictures and to discover on your own the historical quarter where you can admire the Church of San Sisto, one of the oldest churches in Pisa and Piazza dei Cavalieri, which was the political centre in the middle age and where the Scuola Normale (one of the most famous universities in the world) is located.
