Biking the Medieval City of Lucca

Biking the Medieval City of Lucca

Pedal your way around Lucca as the locals do in a tour that includes a picnic.

Follow your guide in a leisurely bike ride through Lucca’s charming medieval streets and along the two miles of massive, fortified walls that surround the city. Your tour will include photo stops at points along them, as well as at the Romanesque-style Duomo and the Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, built on the foundations of an ancient Roman amphitheater. Then, taste local flavors on a picnic before enjoying free time to browse the local shops.
