Pisa, famous for its Leaning Tower, is a historic picturesque town in the heart of Tuscany. Whilst a visit to the Tower and the stunning Piazza dei Miracoli is a must, but there is much more to discover in this vibrant, university town, and by bike is the best way to enjoy. Plenty of sights, stroll to narrow streets discovering all churches, San Gallo Fortress (Giardino Scotto) and a breathtaking ride along the wall with its cycling path, follow the river Arno kissed by the wind and sun discovering history and nature.
Inclusions: Use of bicycle

We hired some bikes through this company for our cycle tour around tuscany. We emailed elena several times before our trip and communications were excellent. The bikes were set up when we arrived and were high spec carbon road bikes. We also were able to leave some bags at the shop for a few euros a day. The cycling was fabulous.
