We had a great morning with our guide Luca. His English was excellent and he was so charming and funny, giving us some interesting historical facts and humorous stories. The stop for antipasti and wine was delicious. The gelato stop was the best we had all holiday. Our family of six (aged 23-59) thoroughly enjoyed this activity.

I highly recommend this tour! There were many families and people of all ages on this tour. The ride was beautiful through tree-lined streets, with some sun and some shade. We took breaks to learn the history of Lucca and for some delicious food! We stayed in Florence and took the train for a quick day trip to Lucca just to do this tour. Everyone in my group loved it!

Full description

Bikes in Lucca are a must. You'll feel like a local as you head off on a journey sure to be relaxing and memorable. Take a sights-packed ride around the city walls, stopping to explore hidden corners and learn more about one of Italy’s most prosperous regions. Taste some local delicacies along the way.

Pass by little squares with magnificent ancient church facades and noble Renaissance palaces. Lofty medieval towers still feature prominently here; one of the most famous landmarks in Lucca is the beautiful Guinigi Tower. Pass by this one and many more with plenty of Instagram-friendly stops along the way. 
Enjoy your first food stop at a local-favorite shop. Taste the delicacies the area is famous for, including pecorino cheese, cold cuts, and extra-virgin olive oil. Cruise through different corners of the city center, admiring narrow alleys and ancient churches before reaching the lowest one: San Frediano Basilica.
Continue exploring the lesser-known east side of the town, getting a real feel for local life. Hop aboard your bike and climb back toward the city walls and the historical center through Piazza Grande.
Settle in for a final, extra sweet stop at the oldest ice cream shop in Lucca: prepare to taste some gelato you'll never forget (pastry in colder months). Finally, return to the meeting point knowing that you experienced the city like a real local.

Includes

  • Local English-speaking guide
  • Food samples as per itinerary (1 gelato or pastry, sampling of local cured meats and pecorino cheese with Tuscan bread, extra virgin olive oil)
  • 1 glass of local wine or beer
  • Bike and helmet rental

We loved our bike tour with Chiara in Lucca. My fiancé and I had a cycling tour of Lucca with snacks. It was @ 2 hours and it was so interesting and fun. My partner has some back problems and it was not difficult biking for him at all. It was leisurely with lots of interesting stops to learn more about the history. Lucca is beautiful and worth seeing this way. One of the best parts was our tour guide Chiara. She is so knowledgeable about the city and know s so much about the history. It felt like she had an advanced degree in the regional history and local history. She was great. The food along the way was a lovely treat and allowed us to try to some local specialties. The experience was well with it.
