VISITING LUCCA

The thousand-year history of Lucca makes it a city of unique charm, just like its Renaissance walls that enclose the historic center with its 100 churches. Equally unique are its enchanting medieval towers and narrow streets. Its Renaissance palaces and squares are filled with history, art, and architecture. A truly unparalleled discovery!

What my guests say

Reviews published on Tripadvisor, Viator and GetYourGuide by guests on the Lucca tours organised by Turislucca: only those naming Vittoria as the guide are included.

Lucca

Vittoria was fantastic — easily one of the highlights of our stay in Lucca. I 100% recommend doing this tour on your first day. […] Vittoria explains everything clearly and engagingly, and creates a very comfortable atmosphere in which everyone feels included.

Lucca

Victoria the guide was a local author and a complete expert on Lucca. She was charming and engaging and we rate her the best walking guide we have ever had. We look forward to returning next year.

Lucca

A wonderful experience with our guide, Mrs Vittoria – excellent: there were 2 Italians out of 16 people, and she explained everything twice, in Italian and English.

Lucca

Vittoria was the most charming guide: she gave us such a unique perspective on the history of the city and was clearly very proud of her home town and its achievements over the centuries and today. Toilet paper capital of Italy… who knew!

Lucca

A truly interesting and engaging experience! We took part with our children (aged 7 and 5), who were thrilled to discover the city’s secrets […]. Thanks to Vittoria, who proved competent, patient and friendly!
