Medieval Lucca’s red-brick walls shut out traffic and the modern world… leaving a peaceful community that still revolves around its original Roman street plan. And because it’s topographically flat – unlike most Tuscan towns – Lucca is a cyclist’s dream. Hop on a bike to explore this colorful, elegant, historically powerful and culturally rich city – zipping down its narrow lanes… across its ancient piazzas… even along the top of its massive walls! Delighting all the senses is a hallmark of the Tuscan Hills… so a local winery just outside of town is the perfect venue for tasting local wine, sipping prosecco, sampling a canapé – and digging into a memorable dinner of Tuscan specialties in an absolutely magical spot… under the setting Tuscan sun.
