We typically stop in Pisa first, when the Field of Miracles is empty. Going to Pisa at the beginning of the day also serves to avoid rush hour traffic entering Florence. On Pisa’s “Campo dei Miracoli” you will find not only the world’s most famous bell tower but also the cathedral, baptistery and cemetery, which are all remarkable monuments. We usually budget about 45 minutes in Pisa. There is time to climb the Leaning Tower; it only takes 15 minutes. We can pre-book tickets for you. Prizes will be given for the most creative shots of your group “holding up” the Leaning Tower!

Our kid-friendly itinerary covers the history of Florence and its most important monuments. Children will learn about architecture from Medieval towers to Renaissance Palaces in a fun, hands-on way. The itinerary covers: - Palazzo Davanzati (entry fee to be paid on the spot, approx. 10 Euro pp) - Medieval Towers - Ponte Vecchio - Piazza della Signoria - Dante's District - the cathedral - Palazzo Medici-Riccardi (from the exterior) We know hungry kids (also parents) can be grumpy tourists, so we'll stop for a slice of pizza and a drink, and then later for gelato (ice cream) to keep everybody going. (This is an out-of-pocket expense.) After the walking tour, you'll have a little free time before we head back to port.
