• Lucca - Lucca’s subtle allure unfolds gradually as one meanders through its historic, narrow streets and pauses to admire the grand white marble churches from centuries past. Lucca’s most captivating secrets lie within the private confines of austere patrician palazzos, in the shadowy corners of Romanesque churches, behind the walls of hidden gardens, and in the enigmatic underground. Many hidden treasures of Lucca’s art and history will be revealed. The tour commences at the statue of Burlamacchi in Piazza San Michele, the site of the ancient Roman forum. It’s the perfect moment to capture the breathtaking 12th-century facade. Along the journey, you will encounter Lucca’s most renowned figure: Giacomo Puccini, and view the exterior of his birthplace. His operas continue to enchant audiences worldwide! The tour is conducted in both English and Italian.
• Via Fillungo - Continue your stroll to Via Fillungo, the town’s main and bustling shopping street, home to both traditional shops and medieval tower houses. Marvel at Lucca’s two tallest civic towers: Torre delle Ore and the distinctive Torre Guinigi, topped with seven holm oak trees.
• Basilica of San Frediano - More wonders await, such as the magnificent Byzantine-style mosaic on the facade of one of Lucca’s most cherished churches: San Frediano.
• Palazzo Pfanner - The Walls of Lucca are a unique feature in European city planning and architecture. Constructed during the Renaissance, they stand as a prime example of Italian fortification.
• Piazza Anfiteatro - Just a short distance from the San Frediano church lies one of Lucca’s most beautiful squares, Piazza Anfiteatro. The elliptical shape of this distinctive piazza results from the construction of buildings over the foundations of the ancient Roman amphitheater.
• Lucca’s Duomo (Cattedrale di San Martino) - A brief walk through more medieval streets leads to the Cathedral of San Martino, with its unique and impressive Pisa-Lucca Romanesque facade. This is where the tour concludes.
