Highlights
This 2.5-hour guided walking tour through the historic center of Pisa combines the history and flavors of medieval Pisa. Taste handmade biscotti at a historic local bakery, then walk past the Church of San Frediano, Piazza dei Cavalieri and the Church of San Sisto all the way to Piazza dei Miracoli. The tour ends with Pisa's traditional chickpea tart '5e5 (cinque e cinque)' and Pisa's amber soda 'Spuma Bionda'.
Program
Start with handmade biscotti
at an old bakery in the university district
The tour begins in the lively university district, full of students. Stop at a historic 'forno' (bakery) that has welcomed locals for generations, and taste handmade biscotti made from a recipe dating back to the Middle Ages.
Explore the Church of San Frediano and Piazza dei Cavalieri
Walk through narrow lanes and pause in front of the Church of San Frediano with its beautiful Romanesque façade. For centuries it was the spiritual center for students of the 'Sapienza', the historic seat of the University of Pisa, and you will hear how, since the 11th century, Pisa's intellectual life intertwined with religious and commercial power to shape the city.
Next, spend about 20 minutes in Piazza dei Cavalieri, once the political center of the Maritime Republic and later the headquarters of the Order of the Knights of St. Stephen. View the façades of Palazzo della Carovana (Scuola Normale Superiore), the Church of Santo Stefano dei Cavalieri and the Hunger Tower (Muda Tower).
Pass the Church of San Sisto on the way to Piazza dei Miracoli
Stop by the Church of San Sisto in Cortevecchia, built to celebrate the naval victories of the Republic of Pisa. Its Pisan Romanesque façade is decorated with Islamic ceramic bowls brought back by Pisan ships from across the Mediterranean.
At Piazza dei Miracoli, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, spend about 45 minutes admiring the white marble exteriors of the Cathedral (Duomo), the Baptistery, the Camposanto monumental cemetery and the Leaning Tower. You will also hear about the symbols hidden in the sculptures and the engineering challenges that have kept these monuments standing for centuries.
Finish with the traditional chickpea tart '5e5'
Taste the traditional chickpea tart '5e5 (cinque e cinque)', made from a recipe dating back to the Middle Ages and served in warm, crispy bread. Enjoy it with a glass of 'Spuma Bionda', Pisa's vintage amber soda. The tour ends back at the meeting point.
