This was a decent tour...

This was a decent tour and we enjoyed our time in Pisa. However, our time in Manarola was not nearly long enough to " relax by bathing in the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea" as the itinerary promises. We wished we had not taken this extension of the Pisa tour. So yes, we recommend this tour, but don't recommend the Manarola extension. It is a pretty town, but there wasn't much to do, especially in our short time there.

Good tour management.

Well organized tour with a guide who is prepared for the tour that had multiple transportation methods. Coordinated tour segments were timely scheduled. Less stress and greater time for sightseeing.

Transport

Calling this a tour is a stretch. It really is transport with a little orientation. Don’t pay for the classic tour as it’s not a walking tour. Our guide was inundated with participants so you mainly heard “Take photos here for 6 minutes”. It was dreadful. For Cinque Terre you must walk up and down a steep hill. If you can’t walk it don’t book this tour either. If you are after transport to two amazing places and would like your tickets up the tower pre arranged - this is for you!

Very good

This activity is definitely a strenuous activity. It was great and informative. Pisa was good. Not much to do in the surrounding area of Pisa so we didn't need to be there for as long as we were. Cinque Terre was just breathtaking and we could've spent more time there. I suggest adjusting the times in the two areas.

This was a great tour but...

This was a great tour but a long day. It was a bit confusing trying to find the correct tour guide but once we found the correct bus it went smoothly. I especially loved the cinque terre town. It's very steep!

Nice tour

Nice tour. We really Enjoyed it. Seeing the Leaning tower of Pisa and Cinque terre after by train was amazing. The train ride to cinque terre was a good surprise. Must see places.

Wouldn't Recommend

The tour felt disorganized, and was not very informative. They spent a lot of time in the beginning dividing us into groups according to the tours that we had chosen. Some people were doing Pisa only, others were going somewhere else after, some were going up the tower. Everyone had different instructions for when and where to meet, so it felt chaotic. The walking tour of Pisa was way too big of a group, with very little information given. They did give us a nice map of the area, though it did not include the bus area. It was fun to go up in the tower and to see everyone taking pictures. At the end, it was very hard to remember how to make our way back to it (no signs or instructions), and we all had to work together to remember how to get back. One older man was upset that he couldn't find it, afraid they would leave without him. We decided to get off the bus with the people going back to the cruise port instead of staying for the Cinque Terre portion because we we didn't trust that they would get us back to the ship on time. It was too much squeezed into one day, and if I did it again, I'd only choose the Pisa portion.

Last minute changes

Our initial tour of Cinque Terre was changed/ canceled the night before and in the morning they said if we still want to do the tour it would be to Florence and Pisa instead. I wasn’t happy about the change however the tour itself was great and the guide was nice and funny and pleasant during the bus ride. We were still happy with the Pisa and Florence excursion.
