Lucca, Pisa, and Tuscan Farm Tasting Experience
Our driver escort will pick you up at your location (hotel, B&B, or private apartment) and take you on a drive through the sweet hills of Tuscany to the town of Lucca. Visiting Lucca means discovering the birthplace of the composer Giacomo Puccini and travelling through the signs of time, history, and art, from the Roman period to the Middle Ages, from the Renaissance to the nineteenth century and modern times. Lucca is magical in all seasons; with its famous walls, crowned with trees, and the pedestrian areas inside the city, it is the perfect place for a walk or a bike ride. The most important things to see in Lucca are the Walls, the Dome, the Puccini Museum, Guinigi Tower, and the Oval Square.
Later, we will drive to Pisa. Your tour continues with a visit to the city of Pisa, where you will have time to admire and photograph the famous Leaning Tower and the other monuments of the square, including the Baptistery and the Cathedral. The Tower began to lean during construction in the 12th century due to soft ground that could not adequately support the structure's weight. It worsened through the completion of construction in the 14th century. The structure was stabilized by remedial work between 1993 and 2001, which reduced the tilt to 3.97 degrees. Climbing to the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa is a unique experience, and it offers a breathtaking view of the town. The base ticket price is 18 €.
Later, we will move through the Tuscan countryside to a winery farm to understand the secrets of wine production and enjoy lunch with wine tastings. In the afternoon, we will continue through the countryside to the village of Vinci, the hometown of the genius Leonardo, for a special tasting of wines, extra virgin olive oil, and bruschettas with new oil, tomatoes, Tuscan ham, and salami. We will also experience the life of a typical Tuscan farm. On request, it is possible to visit the Leonardo Museum.
At the end of lunch, we will return to your location.
