Great 2.5 hour tour walking of Lucca - A great way to get to know Lucca in a few short hours. The food stops make it enjoyable for teens as well. Our guide spoke great English and was very knowledgeable of the history and culture of Lucca. She also allowed us to make a few stops that were not on the original tour. My only regret is we didn’t stay the night!

Great day in Lucca ! - We had a great tour around the city center with Chiara ! Due to a light train we decided to walk instead of bike which was perfect because we could stop often and easily hear the history being offered by a very knowledgeable Chiara ! We stopped along the way for included snacks & wine and saw many historical places with the stories that originated them all. Very informative and fun !

Great Intro to Lucca - We had a wonderful time on our Food and Walking Tour of Lucca. Sara was an amazing guide who gave us the history of Lucca and shared the cities highlights with us. She picked up on every family members interest and included them in the tour. Sara and this tour gave us the base we needed to navigate the city and enjoy the most that Lucca had to offer.

Fantastic Tour - Sara was an amazing host/guide and so knowledgeable about the Lucca area, its history, and its wonderful food! We absolutely loved the food as we’d hoped, but the real surprise was being able to learn so much about Lucca and the history of the downtown area. There is so much charm to this Tuscan town - a visit to Lucca and the “Flavors of Lucca” tour should be on everyone’s list for a Tuscan trip!
