★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 617 reviews · 4 hours · from $35Best value

Livorno to Pisa in 4 hours with an expert guide at Miracle Square, plus the option to climb the Leaning Tower for big views.

“Great opportunity to climb Pisa tower. Our guide dealt with a situation of confused travellers on our coach , as a family of four boarded the wrong coach. Be aware that you cannot bring any form of bags into the tower and the guide will get all your bags of the group, choosing the tower option, in 1 locker before you queue up to get inside Pisa tower. The views from the tower of Pisa are so worth the slippery stair ascent.”

“It was a nice excursion, but they informed us half an hour before taking the boat that we wouldn't visit Stromboli because it's risky in this period of the year I would like to get informed earlier and be able to decide if I want to do the excursion or not, because finally we spent 4 hours in Panarea. If you want to move in Panarea you have to take a taxi to go to the beach, It's 30 minutes walking distance and you get there at 2'o clock so it is really hard to go to the beach on foot.
