Pisa and Lucca are undoubtedly among the richest cities in the world for their architecture and history: they are unmissable destinations for those who want to go deep inside Tuscany and its artistic background. Once in Pisa, you will be met by your personal guide: the tour starts in the incredible Piazza dei Miracoli, where you can admire the Baptistery and the famous Leaning Tower, together with a guided visit of the majestic Cathedral.
After you will have some free time to do shopping or have a cappuccino before the departure for Lucca. In Lucca, famous for its still-intact walls with huge gates and ramparts, our local guide will lead you to the enchanting old town center walking along a section of the walls and enjoying a breathtaking view over the rooftops.
You will admire the main attractions of the city, such as the Anfiteatro Square, the Guinigi Tower, San Martino Cathedral and a stroll along the picturesque streets of antique shops. The tour ends with a buccellato tasting, a typical Lucchese cake – a famous saying of the Lucchesi (people from Lucca) is: ‘those who come to Lucca without eating the Buccellato is like they have never been there!’
(Please be advised that it is free to enter the Cathedral in Pisa and therefore if it is not possible to visit due to large crowds as an alternative, we will offer you a tour of Piazza Cavalieri. As well, the order of the visits are subject to change)
