Lucca and Pisa Day Trip Itinerary
Your day begins with a bus pickup at the designated meeting point, followed by a journey to Pisa, one of Italy's iconic destinations. Upon arrival, you'll embark on a guided tour of the historic centre.
Walk through the renowned Piazza dei Miracoli and admire its significant monuments, including St. John's Baptistry, the cemetery, the Cathedral, and, of course, the famous leaning tower.

During your stay, a guided tour will include highlights such as the Amphitheatre Square, the Giunigi Tower, and the San Martino Cathedral.
