After the breakfast, you'll leave by private minivan to Florence and visit two jewels of Tuscany: Pisa and Lucca. After the breakfast it's time to transfer to Pisa, by private van, the next exciting destination on your trip. Once you arrive the English speaking guide will let you discover the famous Torre di Pisa (leaning tower) and the Piazza dei Miracoli. Pisa is a legendary city and one of the most famous in this region of Italy and offers a great deal more sites than just it’s legendary leaning tower. The Leaning Tower has made Pisa famous all over the world, and in addition to the tower, the city offers many other interesting things to see. When you first arrive at the beautiful Square of Miracles (Piazza dei Miracoli), your sight will be captivated by the magnificent Tower. Don’t just admire it from below: the climb up the tower is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that we highly encourage you to experience. You will enjoy both the incredible climb as well as the amazing views from the top. Once you have admired the Tower of Pisa from all angles, continue the visit to the other monuments in the Piazza: the Cathedral and the Baptistery. Along the perimeter of the square, there is also the Cemetery, the Cathedral Museum and the Museum of the Synopses.
Lunch by your own that you can enjoy in one of the charming nearby restaurants.
Continue on to Lucca where, upon arrival, you'll visit one of the cities most loved all of Tuscany, that will make you feel like you’re taken back in time. Its city center, with red bricked walls and paved roads literally oozes history. Most of the attractions in Lucca today show its ancient history: from the trace of the Roman amphiteater that can be seen in the shape of the Piazza dell'Anfiteatro to the archeological remains under the 12th century church of Saints Giovanni and Reparata (the first city cathedral, located just around the corner from the present-day cathedral of San Martino), to the various towers and villas from the 12th to 16th centuries. Other top attractions include the Piazza of San Michele with its beautiful Church of San Michele in Foro, the Basilica of San Frediano as well as the Clock Tower and Guinigi Tower, to name just a few. As you lose yourself in its cobblestone streets, you can’t help but admire its colourful buildings and its stunning architecture. Warm, bold colours such as yellows, oranges, rich turquoise and emerald dominate, making Lucca totally photogenic. You’ll spend more time taking photos than doing anything else.
