“Memorable Pisa, David, and Giovanni - Grateful for a tour that could bring us from to Pisa because we didn’t have time to research how to get there and appreciate the sights in Pisa. I’m not going to lie: It’s quite expensive considering it doesn’t include lunch (which the tour to Pietrelcina had). But for us, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience and we got to see the Leaning Tower of Pisa and more!” - Reviewed on 2025-01-04
