Our tour guide was knowledgeable and very pleasant. Keep things moving in a nice way. Gave great insight about Lucca and it’s history. Both architectural and food and wine.

Susan_N

A great way to travel thru the streets of Lucca. Our guide Antoinelle was wonderful with so many stories about Lucca through the centuries, its history and its people. Took the train from Florence and we’ll worth the effort.

Marci_P

This is probably my favorite things that I did in Tuscany! It was so fun getting to stop and buy different local food from the area, as opposed to other tours that just go over the history.

Rick_M

We were the only people on this walking tour. Our guide Chiara was prompt and kept us moving at a comfortable pace, allowing for stops to take photos or answer our questions. She was very knowledgeable about the history and architecture of Lucca. Great way to start your visit to Lucca.

Leonard_S

Nadia was extremely knowledgeable and informative. It's easy to tell how much she loves Lucca. We highly recommend her.

This tour is a great way to see the town and get a good overview. If you are just arriving Luca,, this is a great way to get orientated. Our tour guide was articulate, informative, and funny. It was a very enjoyable time.

to avoid the stress that we had, do it like this: tripadvisor says to come at 01:30 to the tourist information at Piazza Ricasoli, but beware that there is a sign that points to a small old closed building saying 'tourist information', but don't wait there, it is the wrong one! go to the one that is on the right side when you face the railway station (Stazione). There you only get the tickets (and you have to get them even though you have the booking confirmation...) and afterwards you have to go to Piazza Verdi to another tourist information (in a historical building) where the tour starts at 02:00 p. m. The tour itself was really good and the local guide showed us historical as well as culinaric highlights and gave us good tips for not classic restaurants with moderate prices.

Fortement déçu par Pise nous avons cherché à ne pas repartir et on nous a conseillé Lucques (ou Lucca) sa zone piétonne fortifiée et simplement magnifique. Les monuments, ou simplement les rues sont étonnantes et atypiques, même certains magasin sont tt aussi étonnant (c la seule fois un j ai pu manger une glace dans un magasin en faisant de la balançoire!!😆), la place centrale est très agréable, bref...a faire sans hésiter.
