Why come to Lucca?
Because Lucca is a fascinating city located in Tuscany, close to other famous cities that you may have already visited.
Because Lucca is surrounded by beautiful Renaissance Walls that will allow you to see the city from a different point of view.
And again I could tell you that Lucca has had a long and rich history that we see in the construction of beautiful Romanesque churches and the sumptuous palaces of Renaissance lords.
And finally because Lucca has the famous Guinigi Tower with beautiful trees on top and Piazza Anfiteatro known throughout Italy for its particular shape.
These are just some of the reasons to book this tour...yes! I was forgetting that this is also the city of Giacomo Puccini, the great master who wrote operas sung by Andrea Bocelli.
So as you can see the tour will be full of surprises!
This is my city and it will be a joy for me to introduce it to those who want to discover it with me!
