We had a wonderful guide which added historical context to what we saw. Really enjoyed the Cathedral and Cemetary history. The weather was great and we had a good time exploring.

Our guide should be in Italian, it was the only one available when I booked. However, our guide also speeks English and this change that she did in the last minute was awesome (my husband and I we are Brazilian, we don't speek Italian but we speek English). It saved our tour. Besides that, she had great sense of humour and gave us a lot of information about Pisa and all the monuments. We rlhqd a great tome with her!!!
