With my Pisa and Vinci private tour I’ll show you the city of famous “Leaning Tower” and Vinci, birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci.

I’ll pick you up from your hotel in Florence, or in another town in Tuscany, and drive you to Pisa (83 km/51 miles West of Florence)! I will start giving you a historical presentation from the foundation of Pisa as an Etruscan city, to its growth as a Roman colony, until the heyday of Pisa in the Middle Ages as one of the most powerful maritime republics. Although Pisa is known worldwide for its leaning tower, the city contains more than 20 historic churches, several medieval palaces and various bridges across the Arno. Visit to the monumental complex of Piazza Duomo: Cathedral, Leaning Bell Tower, Baptistery, and Cemetery.
We’ll then drive to Vinci where I’ll tell you about the most emblematic man of Italian Renaissance: Leonardo!
Vinci still preserves the same urban and countryside landscape it had when the young genius started his investigation of the natural phenomena, and made his first hydraulic experiments in the small river of the town. We’ll visit the local museums and the birthplace of Leonardo.
I am not going to give you a lecture – unless you want to – I’ll be informative but I won’t overdo with too many dates and names, I will make your visit fun with anecdotes and legends, you will have time to enjoy a typical local meal, a coffee, or a gelato: I know you are here on holiday and your holiday is meant to be enjoyable and fun!
