A very interesting guided tour of the Miracles Square. - An excellent guided tour, with a very knowledgeable guide. We had an earlier tour of the cathedral, but learned a lot more from our guide! She was helpful in keeping us in the shade when outside on a very hot and humid day. The choice for the wine tasting (Pecorino restaurant) was great, and we returned there for dinner that night.

Responsive Tour Company - We unfortunately missed our 1000 tour time; however, I messaged the tour company an hour before our tour asking for our tickets. She responded quickly and sent me our tickets via WhatsApp. We ended up making our tower tour at 1245.

Great tour - We really enjoyed this guided tour and wine tasting which followed. Our tour guide, Claudia was very knowledgeable and also friendly and helpful, and asked us if we had extra questions and was keen to make sure we got the most out of the tour. The wine tasting with bread and cheese was lovely and finished off the whole experience well. It was plenty enough for us, but please don’t expect masses of food. There were 3 different wines which came with 3 separate boards of cheese and bread with different pastes to try.
The whole experience was well worth it in our opinion and we really enjoyed it.

Tour and Wine - Our tour guide was outstanding. She was knowledgeable, lively and enthusiastic.
The wine tasting at the end was a little disjointed… food to pair with the wine was served after the wine was gone. Staff the restaurant didn’t not appear happy we were there.

Great Tour Of Pisa and Wine Tasting - Learning the history of the Pisa buildings was interesting and really helped to get a better understanding than just visiting them on our own. The tower was of course the highlight, but the wine tasting was absolutely amazing. The location they choose was close and the man who served us our wine and food went into detailed background on the wines chosen and why the particular food accompanied the wine. Great experience for the price.

Piazza dei Miracoli in the sunshine - Anastasia was a lovely guide, telling us pieces of architectural information about the various buildings. The cathedral has a magnificent ceiling. I spotted that the ‘windows’ above the main doors are made of alabaster (thanks to seeing similar in the Cathedral in Valencia). The light shines through them into the church. From the outside, doesn’t look like windows at all.
I feel that we could have been given information about the inside, but the cathedral was very busy so not that easy to stand together to receive details. We booked the climb up the leaning tower (well worth it as the lean itself makes for a strange sensation as you climb up and descend the marble steps. Anastasia waited for us at the bottom and took us to the very close by restaurant where we tasted 3 wines. Wine tasting was OK, but nothing spectacular. I wish the tour had included the baptistery but I paid the €7 and went in afterwards. The acoustics are quite lovely (a member of staff sings some notes to demonstrate just as Anastasia said) and the best view IMO is from the upper gallery.
