Hello! My name is Armando, I am an expert of Italian art, history, archeology and culture, and I have been working as an official tour guide for over twenty-five years. I am originally from Rome, I moved to Vinci, Tuscany a few years ago - birth place of the famous Leonardo da Vinci, 25 miles West of Florence -, and I am specialized in private tours of Florence, Siena, Pisa, Lucca, Vinci and all of Tuscany. I provide my guests a great summary of some twenty centuries of history most cities boasts, telling them about art and archaeology, past and present, local culture and every day life, and how all is inextricably combined. I am not going to give you a lecture - unless you want to - I will be informative but I won't overdo with too many dates and names, I will make your visit fun with anecdotes and legends: I know you are here on holiday and your holiday is meant to be enjoyable and fun! Whether it is your first visit, second or third time in Florence and Tuscany, I will be happy to create a customized itinerary based upon your interests to make you experience a unique, relaxing vacation. Ciao! No restrictions at all!

I will start giving you a historical presentation from the foundation of Pisa as an Etruscan city, to its growth as a Roman colony, until the heyday of Pisa in the Middle Ages as one of the most powerful maritime republics. Although Pisa is known worldwide for its Leaning Tower, the city contains more than 20 other historic churches, several medieval palaces and various bridges across the Arno. I will show you the monumental complex of Piazza dei Miracoli: Cathedral, Bell Tower, Baptistery, and Cemetery. I am not going to give you a lecture -unless you want to!- I will be informative but I won't overdo with too many dates and names, I will make your visit fun with anecdotes and legends, you will have time to enjoy a coffee or an ice cream: I know you are here on holiday and your holiday is meant to be enjoyable and fun!
I'll meet you at your hotel/accommodation in Pisa, or in Piazza Duomo, or in another agreed spot in Pisa. Visit to: - Cathedral (inside; masterpiece of Medieval architecture, with decorations made by the famous artists of the Middle Ages and Renaissance) - Baptistery (inside; largest in the world with a great acoustics) - Leaning Bell Tower (outside; most famous monument of Pisa) - Cemetery (inside; with beautiful medieval frescoes) - Museum Opera del Duomo (inside: original artworks of the Cathedral, Baptistery, Cemetery, and Bell Tower) With me as your guide it will be easier for you to listen and follow the tour despite the everyday crowd, and I'll be happy to accommodate your requests by going faster through sites that don't interest you or stopping longer to see what's more relevant to you.
