Lucca and Pisa are two of the most important historical towns in Tuscany and are not-to-be-missed sights for tourists visiting the region. In this tour you will immerse yourself in 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 authorised 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 marvellous noble palazzos.
Then the tour continues with the visit to Piazza Anfiteatro, Guinigi Tower, St. Martin’s Cathedral and the typical Street of Antiques shops in the old town centre. After that you will be driven to Pisa, where you will have free time for lunch on arrival. Our guide will show you the most important squares and monuments in 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 you will taste a sampling of local wines.
