Very nice experience! - Marika and her horse Mario have given my family and me a wonderful time! The best way to get to know Lucca! Marika has introduced us to Lucca's sights and stories very knowledgeably and in very good English. In addition, it was very special to see how harmoniously, calmly and safely Marika steers her horse through the hustle and bustle of Lucca, very impressive! It was an enriching tour in every way!

Unique experience in Lucca! Has a very special place in my heart - We actually wanted to see the cathedral and then saw the carriage and the beautiful horse that just nibbled on its hay. Mario as it turned out during a very nice conversation with Marika. The two of them drove us through the city. You could feel the beautiful connection between horse and man that Mario and Marika have. Only with voice was the tempo changed or stopped. Impressive! Also impressive was Mario's composure in any situation and the driving skills of the two through the streets of Lucca. Which in some places are really not wide. Mario and Luigi (Marika's 2. Horse) are well known all over the city and the children were already calling from a distance which of the two it is (mega cute). Mario also has his treats stations at various shops in the city, where he then stops and sticks his head in the door 🥰😍 You just notice the two you can only like. On Top, Marika tells you great facts about the city! We even made a little trip to the city walls. Just a beautiful backdrop, just as the magnolias are blooming. By the way, Mario has a rubber fitting in town so that his irons don't slip and his tendons and co are spared. You can just tell the horse welfare is of very high importance to Marika. Overall, we were traveling around the hour. Truly a unique experience that really can't top anything

Slow down and enjoy - What a great way to see Lucca. It was like stepping back in time. The slow pace of the carriage ride and the knowledge of our our driver Marika made the whole experience a pleasure. I highly recommend it. It is a perfect way to get a feel of the beautiful town of Lucca!

Marika and her horse... - Marika and her horse Mario were fantastic! Marika is full of historical knowledge and Mario maneuvers the carriage through narrow streets with skill. He even stops at local businesses for a treat or two. The carriage is very comfortable and well maintained and you are often riding in shade. We have been in Italy for two weeks and this tour was a highlight! I would definitely recommend !
