This 2-hour walking tour with a local guide takes you through the center of Pisa to enjoy both its sights and its street food. Explore Piazza dei Cavalieri, once the political heart of Pisa, Piazza delle Vettovaglie surrounded by arcades, and Borgo Stretto, a medieval street lined with shops. Along the way, taste Pisan street food such as cecina, a chickpea pancake, and Pecorino Pisano, and finish with artisanal gelato. It is ideal for those who want to discover the lively old town where locals live, beyond the Leaning Tower.
Meet your guide in front of Caffè della Spina to start the tour. At Piazza dei Cavalieri, once the political heart of Pisa, see the square redesigned by Giorgio Vasari, the Palazzo della Carovana with its striking sgraffito facade, and the Torre della Muda mentioned in Dante's Inferno. Piazza delle Vettovaglie, known as Pisa's "living room", is surrounded by elegant porticoes and lets you experience local daily life up close.
Walk along Borgo Stretto, a narrow medieval street lined with stone arches and small shops. Your guide shares the history and stories of the old town along the way.
Take breaks during the tour to taste local food such as cecina, a savory chickpea pancake and the city's most popular street food, and Pecorino Pisano. There are also tastings for those with a sweet tooth, for example Torta coi Bischeri, a chocolate and rice tart with candied fruit, pine nuts and spices, or artisanal gelato with local flavors. The tour ends at Piazza dei Cavalieri.
