Fabulous Lucca tour with fabulous guide, Sara - Walking Lucca tour with lots of local snacks was wonderful with Sara. She is friendly, informative, fun and native to Lucca! Our family of five thoroughly enjoyed our time and recommend to others. Sara was also very helpful answering all of our questions and anticipating our needs, like lots of shade, as it was a very hot day. Excellent!

Highly recommended if you like good food and a historic walk - What a great experience today in Lucca! Highly recommended if you like good food and culture.
The tour took us through the pleasant streets of the city, while our guide Antonella told us all about the rich history of Lucca in a fun way. In between we stopped at various places to taste local delicacies. From sliced ham to bruchetta and a good glass of wine, each stop had something unique. Everything came from the neighborhood, so you notice that it was made with love and attention.
Finally, we got a gelato at a local favorite, and it was really great. Just what you need after an afternoon of hiking.
A tasteful way to discover Lucca. Grazie mille, Antonella!

Rich Historical Tour (with delicious stops!) - My hubby and I did a private tour of Lucca - it was awesome!!!! While it did have a few food stops (high quality stops - in fact one included the BEST gelato we had on our 1 month Italy holiday) it was very rich in the history of Lucca, our main focus.

Must do Lucca experience! - Chiara was our guide today and she was absolutely lovely to spend the morning with! She shared so much history and the legends of Lucca with us as we walked through the streets and stopped at many local attractions. The food stops were also a highlight of the tour - we enjoyed coffee and pastries then bread and local meats and cheeses and then we veered off the gelato stop at our request and she took us to a pizzeria for a surprise treat! I will not share the secret in case the reader decides to do the tour. This is a must do when visiting Lucca!

Very good quality tour! - The tour was very rich guide to the history of Lucca. Chiara included many very interesting details about the Roman, Medieval and Renaissance architecture and life of the residents of historical Lucca. The food stops were very high quality too, a nice rest. Nice to do a private tour so we could go at our own pace. Highly recommend!
