Wonderful, delicious Lucca food tour - Our guide, Dasha, was fantastic! She found us right on time and warmly welcomed us. She os a warm and friendly person, able and willing to answer any questions. All the food stops were excellent and the foos delicious. Although it was too cool for gelato, the Italian hot chocolate was a delectable substitute. This was a great value in my opinion.

Amazing Tour with Alessandra - This food tour with Alessandra was the highlight of our time in Lucca. She is fun and friendly! She has so much historical knowledge around Lucca and also the history of the food. We ate some of the best food so far since being in Italy!

Eating and wandering through Lucca - a tasty experience - Alessandra led our small group through a tasting experience that was both delicious and informative. It was a fabulous experience, starting with generous charcuterie and then a stop in a family-style place we would never have found on our own where we sampled generous portions of tordellli, a local speciality of meat-filled pasta. Afterwards, it was on to sampling of Ceci, garbanzo flat bread, buccellato, a sweet raisin bread and finally, portions of the best gelato ever. All along, we learned bits about the city’s history and culture. What a delight! This was a wonderful experience and I’d recommend it highly.

Best Lucca food tour !!! - Alessandra was the perfect tour guide! We laughed, learned, ate & drank our way around old town Lucca. Light history, overview of town, and plenty of stops led by a delightful local resident. She indulged all questions and requests of our group of 5. No worries, beautiful day. Thank you!

Excellent way to see and taste the city! - Excellent mix of city information and food and how the two meld together to create Luca’s rich history. Sacha was an awesome guide who put the whole group at ease, asked thoughtful questions and was very flexible for the group to move at its own pace (3 babies and one 5 year old in the group). All of the food stops were excellent and she did a great job in ensuring both parties in the group were comfortable with one another. Thanks for a great experience, Sasha!

Amazing Lucca Tour - This was one of the most enjoyable and informative tours I’ve ever been on. Nicoletta, our tour guide, was wonderful. She was very informative and the food & wine at each stop was amazing. We never would have been able to find the hidden gems Nicoletta took us to on our own. If you find yourself in Luccca, don’t hesitate to schedule this tour. If you’re a foodie on any level you will love it!!
