Saved to wishlist!
One of the most recognizable structures on the planet, the Leaning Tower of Pisa is an iconic wonder that everyone should experience. And there's no better way to do that than to walk up the stairs and get an amazing view from the top of the tilting tower. The Renaissance-era bell tower, which took 200 years to construct and is 183 feet (56 meters) high, began leaning during construction. Nobody knows for sure why this is! Some say it was the result of an architectural miscalculation, whereas others believe the soft clay ground was the cause. It was only in the late 20th century and early 21st century that the tilt was fully stabilized.
After giving your voucher to the ticket-taker, skip the long lines with your priority ticket and make your way up the 294 stairs to the top. You'll have 30 minutes to enjoy the view from the top, as you take in the grassy Piazza del Duomo. Then carefully go back down the stairs and you're sure to have a great tale to tell the friends and family back home.

Itinerary
Recognized worldwide, the gravity-defying Leaning Tower of Pisa has captivated crowds for centuries with its distinctive tilt. The tower, which took nearly 200 years to construct, started leaning even before it was finished and still nobody knows for sure why this is! Some say it was the result of an architectural miscalculation, whereas others believe the soft clay ground was the cause. Decide for yourself by exploring this must-see UNESCO World Heritage Site!
You’ll have a strict 30 minutes to climb to the top, take in the views and head back down, so be sure to make every second of your time in the tower count! The 294-step staircase can be disconcerting; with steps slanting different ways, but you’ll be rewarded with fantastic panoramic views over Pisa from the top! Walk around the tower’s balcony and take photos of the busy square below, littered with incredible monuments like Pisa Cathedral and the Campo Santo cemetery.
