      Grab your keys and drive just over an hour to reach Pisa from Florence. You'll get a chance to see the Leaning Tower of Pisa up close, take some hilarious snaps and even climb the tower. You'll also explore some of the lesser-known but equally stunning buildings and cathedrals in Pisa.
      In between adventuring around town, stop in at a local favourite pizzeria that mixes a range of toppings on mouth-watering crusts. After lunch, you can take a long walk absorbing the town and its mix of beautiful buildings, lively atmosphere and calming river. You'll also squeeze in some gelato before grabbing a drink before an authentic dinner and heading back to Florence after a nourishing and enriching day or adventure.

      A Picturesque Day of Pisa and Pizza

      A little over an hour away from Florence lies a little Italian town, known for a quirky building that I'm sure you've heard of before - the leaning tower of Pisa. While this beautiful building really has to be seen to be believed, Pisa also offers a great day out for its amazing food and sights you'll get to experience on this trip.

      A walk around the Diocese of San Miniato is nothing short of awe-inspiring. Set in the rolling hills of Tuscany, the town and its surroundings are a unique blend of past and present, tradition and modernity. Take a stroll through the narrow cobblestone streets, and you’ll be surrounded by stunning historic architecture that provides a glimpse into Italy’s past.
