Itinerary

  • N/A

    Our foodie experience starts at the train station and in a few steps, we’ll reach the outstanding walls: here your guide will introduce you to Lucca, its history and its people. We will rise till the top of the fortification and we will enjoy a short stroll on the popular pedestrian promenade: You can admire gorgeous urban vistas of the historic centre and the surrounding landscapes, listening to interesting stories and funny anecdotes under the shade of ancient trees.

    30 minutes

  • Lucca

    After a pleasant walk we’ll need to relax and taste the first Lucca-style breakfast in a glamorous pastry shop! You will discover the delicious taste of our cakes, biscuits and sweets paired with an Italian espresso or cappuccino (in certain times of the year, breakfast can be replaced by gelato as a final stop). You will learn about Italian breakfast or gelato traditions and the importance we give to this ritual moment of the day.

    15 minutes

  • Duomo Di San Martino

    With the caffeine and sugar fuelling us we will head towards the main religious square to admire the majestic Cathedral dedicated to San Martino that is a masterpiece of Romanesque architecture you can't miss.

    15 minutes

  • San Michele in Foro

    The walk will lead us towards the most popular location: San Michele square where locals usually meet for a coffee and a chat. Here you’ll have the chance to discover famous sights as well as hidden corners and to learn about food traditions inside local shops with friendly vendors always available for a word. We’ll also pass by the birthplace of our most famous historic figure Giacomo Puccini, the great opera composer well-known worldwide.

    45 minutes

  • Via Fillungo

    Your stroll continues along the main shopping street in Lucca, characterised by medieval palaces and artisan stores: you can admire old shop signs that are very elegant and represent the trade tradition of the city. In the middle of the itinerary, we’ll stop to have a view of the basilica of San Frediano: the locals’ beloved church.

    15 minutes

  • Piazza Anfiteatro

    Our next and last stop will be in the most curious place in the city: the bustling Piazza dell'Anfiteatro where we’ll finally sit down and delight ourselves with a delicious light lunch that includes typical salami and pecorino from Garfagnana, and of course, we will toast with a local wine against the backdrop of this ancient and fascinating place.

Great Intro to Lucca

Published on Oct, 2024

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.
