Pisa Travel and Pisa Transportation
(Pisa, Tuscany, Italy, IT)
Pisa is not a difficult city to travel around and the centre is fairly compact. Public transport is available, in the form of buses, although the majority of attractions in central Pisa and around the Field of Miracles (Campo dei Miracoli) are really only just a short walk away from each other, 30 minutes at the most.
If you have chosen to rent a car in Pisa, then the whole of Tuscany is at your doorstep.
Alternatively, rail transport runs to top cities such as Florence, which is a major tourist destination and steeped in Tuscan history. For short journeys around the city, taxis are on hand, but are not cheap.

Pisa Galileo Galilei Airport is extremely close to the city centre and lies just 2 km / 1.5 miles to the south, and is also within reach of Florence and other prominent Tuscan cities and towns. Therefore, its extreme proximity means that it is easy to travel to and from the airport by using either taxis or bus transport. Buses (line no. 3) tends to run into the city centre every 15 minutes and this is the cheapest way to travel to your hotel, although there is dedicated coach transport available, solely for the use of Ryanair passengers. Other notable airlines flying into Pisa include Air France, Alitalia, British Airways, Delta Air Lines, easyJet, Jet2.com, Thomsonfly and TUIfly.
