Day 18 - Pisa Excursion

Tuesday, August 13th

Optional Excursion to Pisa

This afternoon, a group of students embarked on our final optional excursion. We saved a fun one for the end, a tour of the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

After a short drive from Florence to Pisa, we walked through the main square and sat down for a pizza lunch before joining our local guide for an hour and half walking tour.

She explained the history of Pisa and the reason the tower started to lean. She also showed us the decades of work that went into stabilizing the tower and surrounding buildings.

At the end of the tour, we spent a considerable amount of time taking fun pictures of the tower.

Enjoy some of the highlights.
