More Than Only the Tower - Andrea is a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide. She explained the rivalry between Pisa and Florence while explaining the Medici family influence on Pisa. Walking through the cathedral and then having access to the tower was very interesting. It was wonderful to explore the Square of Miracles and ending with information about the leaning tower. Excellent tour and Andrea is amazing. I highly recommend taking this tour.

Great tour - Great tour, excellent tour guide. She was knowledgeable and easy to listen to. She was informative but made it fun. She checked everyone was OK and answered questions. The climb up the leaning tower was lots of steps, so only do this if you can manage over 300 steps. The steps weren't steep, but in places the marble was a little slippery and worn and uneven. The climb was worth it for fabulous views over the city and the cathedral.

Great Tour from lovely guide - Really lovely guide, who was super knowledgable and informative. Very good value for money - we needed up having a private tour when no one else turned up - so pleased it was not cancelled.

Entertaining and Informative - I lead small group tours all over Europe, and have used many guides. This was one of my best experiences. Our guide was entertaining and provided enough detail that we learned some interesting facts, but brief enough that we didn't get bored. I will use Discovery Pisa again when I return next year!

It is not an excursion for people of any age. There are 297 steps and no elevator.And the company does not warn of this. Publi - Not everyone can go up 7 floors. You have to warn him! I can not upload them, therefore I felt conned. Very good guide.

Beautiful city! - The guide was extremely knowledgeable about Pisa and if history in general. The site is beautiful and we enjoyed access to the Cathedral and the Tower. There’s additional monuments for additional money to visit. Be prepared to leave your belongings in a locker before getting on line for the tower. Also, be prepared to take that hike up! It’s a great workout!
