Pisa and Lucca Tour

Highlights / General details

In this tour you will be enveloped by the history and traditions of the two Tuscan cities that are close in proximity, yet very different in personality. A charming Tuscan landscape will be the frame to your day, spent relaxingly in company of our authorized guides. Lucca is to be found along the road that leads to the coast from Florence. It is a distinctive city of art and Renaissance style surrounded by walls interrupted by beautiful gates and ramparts. The day starts with a pleasant free walk along a section of the town walls to enjoy a beautiful view over the roofs, alleys, house-towers, churches and marvelous noble palazzos, then moving to the old town centre to see Piazza Anfteatro, Guinigi tower, St. Martin’s Cathedral and the typical Street of Antiques shops. Then the tour continues to Pisa, where you will have free time for lunch on arrival. Our guide will show you the most important squares and monuments of Pisa: the famous Piazza dei Miracoli with the Leaning Tower, the Cemetery and the Cathedral (visit to the interior). Free time available. The tour continues with a visit to a typical local winery, where we will taste the wines of the area.
