The best shopping in Pisa isn't in the malls — it's on the streets. From vintage stores to artisan workshops, spots like Piazza dei Cavalieri and Borgo Stretto arcade are scattered through neighborhoods that reward the curious walker. Wander further and you'll stumble on Keith Haring's Tuttomondo mural — the kind of find you can't replicate online.
Pisa is far more than its famous Leaning Tower — a historic university city with a stunning cathedral complex, a lively student atmosphere, and a riverside setting that rewards exploration beyond the tourist hotspot.
Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided shopping tour route in Pisa. The audio walking tour can include stops such as Piazza dei Cavalieri — the Renaissance square designed by Vasari as headquarters of the Knights of St. Stephen, with the Palazzo della Carovana now housing the elite Scuola Normale Superiore, Borgo Stretto arcade — a medieval arcaded shopping street with elegant porticoes, independent boutiques, and traditional cafés, forming the main artery of Pisa's historic center beyond the tourist zone, plus hidden gems like Keith Haring's Tuttomondo mural — the American artist's last public work, painted on the back of the convent of Sant'Antonio in 1989 and Santa Maria della Spina — a tiny Gothic church on the Arno riverbank, one of Pisa's most exquisite buildings.
Use this page as a starting point for a Pisa walking tour, a free self-guided route, or the Roamee app for Pisa. Roamee Pro keeps the route flexible so you can follow the stops, skip ahead, or explore nearby streets at your own pace.
Visitors explore Pisa for history and architecture, but every walking route ends up passing through Piazza dei Cavalieri and Borgo Stretto arcade and neighborhood markets that tell their own story about the city. Don't overlook Keith Haring's Tuttomondo mural — it reflects what the people of Pisa actually buy, make, and value.
Walk from the Leaning Tower south to the Arno River — this twenty-minute stroll takes you from the tourist zone into the real Pisa.
April through June and September through October offer pleasant Tuscan weather, while summer can be hot and the Piazza extremely crowded.
