We had been to Lucca in the past, but never took the time to learn about the town. This tour provided that missing piece, with a very knowledgeable guide with an in depth understanding of Lucca. We learned history and cultural information from an expert, local guide. I would highly recommend this tour to future guests to Lucca. Paul and family

I absolutely loved spending these 2-2.5 hours walking through the streets of old Lucca. The town is like a living museum, and as you do the tour you feel like you are on the sets of a vintage Italian film. Everything was made special by our guide, Vittoria who is so passionate about the history of her city, a fantastic communicator in English, and knew detailed answers to every question we asked her about the history of the place. Also wonderfully priced. Thanks and love to Vittoria <3

The guide didn’t come and a nice guide came to replace « last minute ». We had to wait 15min her… The new guide did a good job showing the city. Having being part of other tours in The region: i saw much more on top what she was saying. From palazzo to additional medieval architectural fun facts. She took it slow but i think she could sometimes tell more, within the time. She was proud to be from Lucca and that showed positively, giving good energy. To summarise: the guide did a good job and i were more angry about the delay at the begining.

Dear Customer, we are really sorry for the time you had to wait by the Information Office. The designed tour leader had a little car accident and couldn't come in time, for this reason we had to find last moment a substitute and Paola could come just with 15 minutes delay. We are happy to read that you appreciated the walking tour and Paola's job but in any case, if you still feel unsatisfied and angry for the the delay, on your request we will refund you.

Using her own proud Lucca-ness, Vittoria manages to explain the ongoing rivalries between the ancient Italian city-states and republics in a humorous way. Her entire walk is packed with great information and tips on what to look for. While the tour was provided in Italian and English, she was excellent at directing the non-addressed language group to some nearby photo spot, so at no point did it feel like "waiting for the other bit to finish". Top guide!
