The Music and History of Lucca! - This tour was fantastic, especially if you want to learn the combined history and music to give you a deeper understanding of this beautiful city. Vittoria is a wonderful guide and it’s obvious how much she loves Lucca. She played music that was connected to each place we visited. I highly recommend this outing! Another plus is free entry to the Puccini museum!

Exceptional, educational and most entertaining tour. - This tour is excellent. Vittoria is not only knowledgeable but engaging, and entertaining. She gives a superb history of Lucca and combines this with its music history. And to make it even better she plays the music of the centuries to give you a more in depth experience. I was lucky to have chosen this tour

Wonderful music centered tour - We were the only ones in our tour. Our guide Vittorio was gracious and knowledgeable. We learned some history of Lucca and famous musicians who were born or performed in the city. She played clips of music as examples. It was a festival day in a local church so we got to experience that. Highly recommend this tour.

Music then and now - Lucia had extensive knowledge of Lucca as well as classical and current music. Her tour was a wonderful way to focus on an aspect of Lucca’s culture amidst all the hubbub of tourists. Thank you so much.
