Description
Discover the heart of Pisa on a guided walking tour. Explore medieval arcades, local markets, and iconic marble monuments, and savor local flavors with food tastings.
This two-hour tour reveals that Pisa is much more than just its famous leaning landmark, offering a beautiful route rich in history and local flavor. Your journey begins along the scenic Arno River at the striking Gothic jewel Chiesa di Santa Maria della Spina, before crossing the historic Ponte Solferino bridge to admire the colorful palaces reflecting in the water. From the riverbanks, you will dive into the lively university atmosphere of Piazza Dante and conclude at Piazza dei Cavalieri, the city's grand former political center redesigned by Giorgio Vasari, which showcases the stunning sgraffito facade of the Palazzo della Carovana and the haunting Torre della Muda from Dante’s Inferno.
As you walk this historic route, you will experience the authentic taste of Pisan cuisine through its most beloved street foods and treats. Along the riverbanks, you can pause to sample Cecina, a savory, golden chickpea pancake that is crispy on the outside and creamy in the center. Moving toward the university quarter, the tour stops for a taste of rich Pecorino Pisano cheese and aromatic Finocchiona salami. Finally, your journey wraps up with Pisa's traditional sweets: a slice of Torta coi Bischeri, a spiced chocolate and rice tart, and a refreshing artisanal gelato flavored with local pine nuts from the nearby San Rossore forest.
At the end of the tour, ask your guide to accompany you to Piazza dei Miracoli, where you will have all the time in the world to admire the stunning UNESCO buildings.
